(Elizabeth David) Elizabeth Campbell. The Encyclopedia of World Cookery. Elizabeth David's copy.

Illus. 9.5x6.5", jacket. London: Spring Books, c.1950's.

Food writer Elizabeth David's copy, with her initials in pencil to front free endpaper, as well as with an envelope addressed to her, containing several small manuscript notes paper-clipped together. The most mysterious of these reads, "All these recipes (and several more) taken from my books. A disgraceful compilation." Jacket spine well faded and chipped; good only. David likely used this book for research in writing her many books and articles.
