In Italian; from the library of Lynne Rosetto Kasper. 193 recipes from a Renaissance-era manuscript cookbook written in 1559 in Trentino, with cuisine specific to the region. Bertoluzza was an avid historian of the cuisine of Trentino, and his work is deeply researched and respected.

An important and rare work on the subject, with minor foxing to fore-edges and occasional dog-earring.
