SC - Period Cookbook

[RANDALL DIAMOND]

I just found this cookbook for sale for those
who can afford it.  The rest of us will just
have to salivate:

FORME OF CURY
Pegge, Samuel J. Nichols

 Price:  $1,250.00
Format: Hardcover - First Edition
Publisher: London 1785
Associated Dealer: Food Words    Portland, OR
Condition: 2nd ed 188 pp VG First printed ed of the 
1390 manuscript with notes by Pegge in the 18th cen. 
Full leather boards, Front board detached, but text 
tight and clean. Superb copy of this significantly 
important early text. A foundation of English cooking. 
The 2nd ed, about which there is some confusion, 
came shortly after the orig pub date of 1780.

Is this currently in print and available at a more 
affordable price?
