An intriguing book by writer on cooking, cookery correspondent and Secretary of the famous London Travellers' Club, Robin McDouall. It covers, as the author states, recipes offered by club chefs, recipes served up in clubs from the author's own experience, and club-type cuisine (or, to put it in the author's words "recipes... which I think they should do"!) Written in an easy, conversational style, the book aims to serve as a practical guide as well as an interesting read, with quantities calibrated by the author to serve (in the main) six, and running the whole course of a meal from soup through the various types of entrée to puddings and, finally, savouries. Includes an interesting introduction and a useful glossary. Green cloth hardback, printed in a good style by the Phaidon Press, London, and supplied with a good dust jacket. Pp176.
