A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Chat With the Reader. THIS modest little book scarcely deserves the dignity of a formal preface. I ndeed, it seems as though prefaces have gone out of fashion in recent years, though they have been proved very useful to authors desirous of placing themselves and their subject on a proper footing with their readers, before the latter begin the task of critically examining their literary wares. In the present instance, the writer has ventured to call attention to the prominent part which that most common yet most useful article of diet, the egg, has played in the development of the science and art of cookery, ever since primeval man first realized the possibilities of fire and water in the proper preparation of food. These pages also contain a complete guide, showing the many different ways in which the egg can be treated, so as to please the eye as well as the palate. It can be justly claimed for the egg that it is as popular among the vast multitude of those who merely eat to live, as it is with that select brotherhood of bon vivants, who only live to eat. When all is said, however, the egg must stand alone upon its intrinsic merits. Like woman, when an egg is good, there is nothing better; when it is bad, there is nothing worse. The A uthor.
