PPC is the usual abbreviation for Petits Propos Culinaires, a 
thrice-yearly journal of culinary studies.  "Essays and notes to 
do with food, cookery and cookery books," according to the 
Library of Congress.  It is published by Prospect Books (Totnes, 
Devon UK).  Subscriptions are $34.00/year; checks should be made 
payable to PPC North America and send to PPCNA, Allaleigh House, 
Blackawton, Totnes, Devon TQ9 7DL, UK.  Although issue #77 was 
particularly rich in period articles, every issue seems to have 
at least one article of interest concerning our time frame, and 
frequently several.
