La Varenne is out in the new translation by Terence Scully.
La Varenne's Cookery: The French Cook; The French Pastry Chef; The
French Confectioner
by Francois Pierre de la Varenne, translated and with a
commentary by Terence Scully
I carried a copy back from the Leeds Conference. It was actually
first translated into English back in the 1650's as The French Cook by
Francois Pierre La Varenne
[Published in 1651,] and that edition is also out and available in a
hardcover edition.
David Brown actually sells both.
