Description: This vintage cookbook, titled "The Galley Guide" by Alex Moffat was first published in 1936 (1944 edition) by Dodd, Mead & Co in New York. This hardcover book is filled with recipes and tips for cooking at sea + mixed drink recipes (the names of the drinks are interesting). The topics covered in the book include cooking techniques, ingredient lists, and step-by-step instructions for a variety of dishes. The condition of the book is very good. Specifics: the spine and just adjacent to the spine is faded, but intact and straight. The binding is solid. There is an original gift inscription on the endpapers, neatly written with a fountain pen. Otherwise, there are no writings or markings. The pages are clean-on just a few there are some dark, scattered markings as seen in the last photo. There are no missing or damaged pages. No stains or odors. The pages are crisp. Several drawings/diagrams of cruisers are scattered throughout the book. The cover is a dark periwinkle blue. 4 3/4 x 7 x 3/4”. 181 pgs. The alcoholic drink names and recipes are probably the most interesting thing about the book. The comprehensive index is helpful. From a smoke free, climate friendly environment.
