This is the hard cover first edition. (Other, later printings were apparently published with plastic comb bindings.) 274 pages. Recipes and Reminiscences of New Orleans not only has hundreds of delicious-sounding regional recipes, the history and short stories (for example, about bread or about King's Cake) are charming!
