 Searching for a First Edition To add to my collection of first edition cookbooks, I am searching for a copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia child and Simone Beck Volume One. It must be a first edition printed in 1961. I have a first edition of Volume Two and would love to complete the set. If anyone has a copy that they would be willing to part with, please contact me through a personal message. Maybe we can auction it here on Chef Talk?

| Have you checked out Food Words yet? Johan runs a strictly food-only used book shop in Oregon. He has added a very extensive listing to the 'net. If he doesn't have it, he will look for it for you. I have purchased some very difficult books to locate from. Very reasonably priced and incredibly easy to deal with. Good luck.

| I have a Penguin edition, paperback, that's marked not for sale in the US. I've been reading it a lot at night lately. Don't know if it's a first printing or not. Saw a copy of The Great Chefs of France by Quentin Crewe and AnthonyBlake for 35 bucks. Look that one up on the ole Internet. It is a fabulous book.

| Wow! I'm bowled over by the response. Thanks everybody!! One more thing I'm looking for is a copy of George Bernard Shaw's book of vegetarian recipes.
