A large-format hardcover in fine condition, with a fine dust jacket. Boards are like new, with no marks, and echo the jacket's design closely. Pages are clean and unmarked throughout. First edition (2008 printing), published by HarperCollins/Collins San Francisco, part of the acclaimed Beautiful Cookbook series. Tuscany: The Beautiful Cookbook presents authentic recipes from the provinces of Tuscany, with text and recipes by Lorenza de' Medici, a member of the historic Florentine Medici family and a noted authority on Tuscan and Italian regional cooking. Richly illustrated throughout, the book combines Peter Johnson's food photography with Michael Freeman's scenic photography of the Tuscan countryside, its architecture, and its traditions, including a detail from Lorenzo Ghiberti's bronze Baptistry doors reproduced on the endpapers.
