For conditions, please view our photographs. A nice clean original book from the library gathered by the famous Cambridge Don, computer scientist, food and wine connoisseur, Jack Arnold LANG.

Jack founded the Michelin Guide ‘Midsummer House’- Cambridge’s paramount restaurant. This dining experience is hidden amongst the grassy pastures and grazing cattle of Midsummer Common and perched on the banks of the River Cam.

1st Edition: 520 pages, illustrated. A nice copy. “Here is the ideal bedside book for epicures. Ranging over the literature of widely different periods and countries, its contents provide a richly entertaining and instructive picture of mankind at the table. Never to be forgotten meals, and appalling ones; moderation and over indulgence. Will be enjoyed by all who appreciate good writing as well as good fare and good wine”. This is the first UK edition.
