Anne Willan is doing a signing for "The Cookbook Library: Four Centuries of the Cooks, Writers, and
Recipes That Made the Modern Cookbook" at Omnivore Books in San Francisco on Sat, June 2. I don't know where else her book tour will take her.

Keep meaning to send this along as a new Forthcoming list of titles.
There aren't many this time. Of course the new Hieatt volume should be
at the head of the list.

Arriving shortly is:
The Cookbook Library: Four Centuries of the Cooks, Writers, and
Recipes That Made the Modern Cookbook (California Studies in Food and
Culture) [Hardcover] Publication Date: April 2, 2012 | Series:
California Studies In Food And Culture
"This gorgeously illustrated volume began as notes on the collection
of cookbooks and culinary images gathered by renowned cookbook author
Anne Willan and her husband Mark Cherniavsky. From the spiced sauces
of medieval times to the massive roasts and rago?ts of Louis XIV?s
court to elegant eighteenth-century chilled desserts, The Cookbook
Library draws from renowned cookbook author Anne Willan?s and her
husband Mark Cherniavsky?s antiquarian cookbook library to guide
readers through four centuries of European and early American cuisine.
As the authors taste their way through the centuries, describing how
each cookbook reflects its time, Willan illuminates culinary
crosscurrents among the cuisines of England, France, Italy, Germany,
and Spain. A deeply personal labor of love, The Cookbook Library
traces the history of the recipe and includes some of their favorites."
