The Epicurean Collector : Exploring the World of Culinary Antiques

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Patrick Dunne has made a career of collecting and researching the history of fascinating and beautiful culinary implements and his accumulated knowledge is ripe for collecting in a book. From absinthe spoons to café-au-lait bowls, he illuminates a wide variety of subjects with verve and authority. Lavishly illustrated, part food history, part a connoisseur's handbook, the epicurean collector will appeal to a broad readership interested in antiques as well as the more general areas of food presentation, entertaining, and style at the table.

About the Author
