About This Item
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1977. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. OVERSIZE. Thollander, Earl. 1977 Printing. First Grosset & Dunlap Edition 1970. Copyright 1966. Hard cover with blue boards showing light shelf & edge wear; light sun fading to edges, most noticeable on top of back board. Top text block shows dust dulling and light foxing. Red endpapers. Interior text block clean & tight; no writing, no marks noted. 926 numbered pages. No dust jacket. * From Introduction by Roger Yuen Lee, ""Although Gloria Bley Miller has written this book essentially for Westerners, many of us in the Chinese-American community will, I know, find it of particular interest. We are now in our second and third generation in the United States and cannot help but note with mixed feelings the changes which have taken place in our culture. We know that many of the beautiful customs and ways handed down to us are gradually disappearing. I find it a delightful paradox, therefore, that this Chinese cookbook written by a Westerner for other Westerners might in its own special way help keep alive a culinary heritage from the Orient.""
