[Sca-cooks] Re: Fetes Gourmandes

As Saint Phlip said, the book contains beautiful pictures.  The book is 
entirely in French *sigh* but has numerous period recipes, the originals shown in 
facsimile, with translations into modern French, discussions of the recipe, and 
a redaction (also in modern French). For each recipe, there is a full color 
photo of the dish prepared, displayed in period dishes, trays, with knives as 
appropriate.  190 pages, bibliography, notes. I can't judge the accuracy of the 
redactions because, unfortunately, I don't read French.
