Original pink tweed cloth, spine lettered in gilt to ornamental brown background, in the John Minton illustrated dustwrapper; pp. 191, [1], two-page frontispiece, illustrations throughout; a well-used copy, binding firm and square, contemporary owne…rship inscription ("Fay Behrman, Dec. 50") to front free endpaper, rear pastedown and upper edge of frontispiece, her name additionally written in block capitals (with indeterminate doodle) to front endpaper and closed fore-edge of page block, additional pasted-in recipes now loose owing to dried adhesive, numerous marks from adhesive residue, further recipes in manuscript (pencil and ink) to front and rear blanks and endpapers, dustwrapper chipped and rubbed to extremities, minor loss to lower spine-tip and upper outer corner, adhesive residue to flaps; Provenance: previously owned by Fay Behrman (1920-2014); a well-used, much-loved copy in very good dustwrapper.2. Fifth Impression, November 1952; 8vo. Original pink cloth, spine (once) lettered gilt to ornamental brown background (lettering now worn away), lacking the dustwrapper; pp. xi, [3], 191, [1], two-page frontispiece, illustrations throughout; lacking dustwrapper; a firm, square copy, rubbed to spine, cloth lightly faded to upper edges, small diagonal crease to upper corner of p. 93; inscribed by Elizabeth David to Norman Jenks, "in gratitude, February 1953"; a very good copy, the contents clean and bright.Two copies of Elizabeth David's first book - a well-loved first edition with attractive provenance and a reprint inscribed by the author. Published at a time of post-war austerity, David's recipes and John Minton's illustrations offered a welcome draught of Mediterranean warmth and sensory pleasure into the kitchens and minds of English readers. It is difficult, today, to imagine the impact of Elizabeth David's early books on a British population still subject to post-war austerity and rationing. A Book of Mediterranean Food, her first book, appeared in 1950 when, the author later wrote, "almost every essential ingredient of good cooking was either rationed or unobtainable." Having spent the war years travelling and working in France, Italy, Greece, Egypt and India, she returned to England in 1946 for reasons of health. "Without a job, and with precious little to do except cook", she began compiling recipes learned on her travels, "less with any thought of future publication than as a personal antidote to the bleak conditions and acute food shortages of [.] post-war England". A Book of Mediterranean Food, rejected by numerous publishers, was eventually taken on by John Lehmann, a literary publisher not readily associated with books about food. When John Minton's "stunning" jacket appeared in shop windows, David recalled, "his brilliant blue Mediterranean bay, his tables spread with white cloths and bright fruit, bowls of pasta and rice, a lobster, pitchers and jugs and bottles of wine, could be seen far down the street". Cookery books quickly date, but David's, with their impeccable prose, literary sensibility (the volume is studded with quotations from writers, including her friends Norman Douglas and Lawrence Durrell), and Minton's beautiful illustrations, are read and used to this day. At a time when people "could not very often make the dishes here described", David notes, it was nevertheless "stimulating to think about them; to escape from the deadly boredom of queuing and the frustration of buying the weekly rations; to read about real food cooked with wine and olive oil, eggs and butter and cream, and dishes richly flavoured with onions, garlic, herbs, and brightly coloured southern vegetables.".

London: John Lehmann. 1958. 8vo. Original oatmeal cloth lettered in gilt over ornamental brown lettering piece to spine, in jacket designed byJohn Minton; pp. 207, [1, (publisher's advertisements)], two-page frontispiece, illustrations throughout; light toning to fore-edge of textblock, a couple of tiny marks to lower edge, smal…l black ink mark (c. 4 mm) to cloth at lower edge of rear panel, front flap of jacket darkened to outer edge; half-title signed by Elizabeth David in blue ink, neat contemporary gift inscription to upper corner of front free endpaper; a lovely bright, near fine copy in a notably sharp, clean example of the wrapper.A lovely copy of the second, revised edition of this pioneering traversal of French cuisine, signed by Elizabeth David and with a bright example of the striking John Minton wrapper. Following the success of A Book of Mediterranean Food, David's publisher, John Lehmann, swiftly commissioned its sequel, this time turning to the dishes of rural France. French Country Cooking was first published in 1951, while food rationing was still in place. In an essay on David, Julian Barnes writes that 'readers [of David's early books] were inevitably indulging in a little light gastroporn. If male adolescents of the time consumed girlie magazines while waiting for the real thing, British domestic cooks had a few panting years to endure before the garlic and basil became available and olive oil was liberated from the chemist's.'Dedicated to the author's mother, French Country Cooking was clearly a labour of love as well as a feat of scholarship, introducing English readers to a rich diversity of French cuisine from pheasant soup of the Basque country to Lyonnaise Poulet a la Creme. Chapters are devoted to soups, fish, eggs, luncheon, supper and family dishes, meat, poultry, game, vegetables, sweets, sauces and preserves. 'E.D. wrote as she cooked: with simplicity, purity, colour, self-effacing authority, and a respect for tradition' (Barnes).Once again, John Minton was recruited for the illustrations. His radiant jacket for the Mediterranean book was a hard act to follow, but the kitchen interior he conjured, complete with its view through an open door, is equally special. See Barnes, 'The Land Without Brussels Sprouts', in Something to Declare (2002).

FIRST EDITION, frontispiece, title-page design and drawings throughout by John Minton (many full-page and some colour-printed), title-page printed in green and black, pp. 189, royal 8vo, original canary yellow cloth, backstrip lettered in gilt against a green ground with decorations in gilt at either end, the lettering a little…rubbed, corners at head gently knocked, very faint mark to upper board, very faint tape shadows to free endpapers, the dustjacket with an overall design by John Minton, a little chipped at corners and ends of backstrip panel, the latter a little tatty at foot with some external tape repair to tears, the same at head of upper joint-fold, very good. Inscribed by John Minton on the flyleaf, in his distinctive hand: 'Kenneth - from Johnny, Nov. 1948'. The recipient was Kenneth Lawrence, with whom Minton had been at Reading School in the 1930s - hence, perhaps, the use of a familiar form of his name, not generally used in his adult life. The pair remained close, with Lawrence receiving numerous letters and artworks from Minton before the latter's early death in 1957. Ross's travel narrative and poetry combine with Minton's wonderful illustrations to achieve an elegant and highly distinctive work, one of the most admired works of illustration in its era; presentation copies are uncommon.
