Signed by Julia Child. The first edition, signed by Julia Child and her husband Paul Child, of the continuation of Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Published 9 years after the first, it is a sequel as much as a second volume and tackles the subject differently from the first, being more of a catch all guide to the different areas of French cuisine rather than being an introduction to the classics and techniques.
The many illustrations were done after photographs by Paul Child, Julia's husband and long time contributor to her books.
First edition, inscribed copy; 8vo (26 x 18.5 cm); inscribed by Julia Child and Paul Child to half-title, profusely illustrated throughout, internally fine; publisher's patterned boards, original patterned dust-jacket, a little rubbing to extremities otherwise a near-fine copy; xxi, 555, liv, [3]pp.
