1 DEL VALLE, KATHARINE Recipes of a rolling stone.
New York Coward-Mccann, Inc. 1941 Hard Cover 
Illustrated by Prince Giorgio Abkhasi. 217 pages, illustrated, cloth, dj, some tape repairs to dust jacket otherwise very good. From the dj: Recipes of a Rolling Stone is decidedly not just another cook book. Anyone interested in good food will welcome this original collection of mouth-watering recipes. Mrs. Del Valle has accompanied her marine-officer husband to the far corners of the world: she has had cooks good, bad and indifferent, from native girls to ex-royal chefs; she has patronized out-of-the-way restaurants famous for some native specialite de la maison. And always she has collected recipes. Interspersed with the recipes are descriptions, with line drawings, of Mrs. Del Valle's several cooks in different parts of the world. These are extremely interesting and amusing, giving a background to the whole and serving to introduce the various sections. Recipes of a Rolling Stone is delightfully personal; reading it, you feel as if some good friend, a favorite hostess, ahs generously shared with you the secrets which have made her table famous.
