Trader Vic’s Helluva Man’s Cookbook, Victor Jules Bergeron, 1976

Description

Trader Vic’s Helluva Man’s Cookbook, Victor Jules Bergeron, 1976:  First edition, first printing copy of Trader Vic’s seventh cookbook.  Hard cover with dust jacket, both in as-if-new condition.  Clever illustrations by Jane Walworth.  Book published by Doubleday & Company, Inc., Garden City, New York, in 1976.

As are all of the Trader Vic cookbooks, actually written by Victor Jules Bergeron, the recipes are written in a chatty, witty, conversational style, with lots of asides and little anecdotes from Bergeron’s past and from his years as a restaurateur.  The recipes are clear and lean toward the spicy side of life.  He says this is a man’s cookbook, but the recipes all seem gender-neutral to me.  Chapters on meat (of course,) appetizers, soups, fish, poultry, game, barbecue, eggs, vegetables, salads, crepes, sweets, and a chapter on booze.

Again, both book and dust jacket in as-if-new condition.  First edition, first printing.  Great gift!
