You might want to check some of the files in the FOOD-BOOKS section of
the Florilegium. I try to put reviews and even just comments about 
various cookbooks in these files. I seem to remember that book being
mentioned on this list before. I'm afraid I don't have time to search
right now, but you might check these files:
16thC-cookbk-bib  (11K)  3/ 2/00    A bibliography of 16th C. cookbooks.
  (mostly primary sources, I think)
cookbooks-bib     (32K)  4/21/97    Cookbook bibliography by Jaelle of Armida.
cookbooks2-bib    (14K) 10/ 3/97    Cookbook bibliography by Stephen Bloch.
cookbooks3-bib    (20K) 10/14/98    Cookbook bibliography by Lady Allison.
cookbooks-msg     (98K)  5/11/99    Reviews of cookbooks with medieval recipes.
