"Helen Brown's West Coast Cookbook," by Helen Brown, 1991 Hardcover

"Helen Brown's West Coast Cookbook--A New Edition of One of the Great Classics of Regional Cooking with a Forward and Annotations by Philip Brown." This 1991 Alfred A. Knopf hardcover is an update and homage to Helen Brown's cookbook first published in 1952. The book is in great shape: clean pages, tight binding, solid front and rear boards, no marks or markings (though there is some freckling from age). The dust jacket is in great shape: no bends or tears, no stickers or sticker goo. From the front flap: "When [this book] was originally published in 1952, James Beard wrote, 'The author has captured with complete success the unique qualities of Western cooking and has given us one of the most delectable books on regional cookery, in its true sense, that I ever read.' ... No one before Helen Brown had attempted define what makes the cooking of the Pacific slope--California, Oregon, and Washington--so special."
