Step into the golden age of hospitality with this exquisite first edition of The Ritz-Carlton Cook Book and Guide to Home Entertaining. Published in 1968, this volume is more than just a collection of recipes—it is a masterclass in the art of the dinner party, written by Helen E. Ridley with the sophisticated flair one associates with the legendary Ritz-Carlton name.

Book offers a rare glimpse into the meticulous standards of the Ritz, providing the "home hostess" with professional guidelines for everything from menu planning to the perfect execution of poultry and egg entrees.

Features lovely, era-specific illustrations by Georgette de Lattre, including a beautiful color frontispiece and elegant section dividers.

While this copy is missing its original dust jacket, the stunning black and mustard cloth boards with the gold-embossed Ritz-Carlton lion-and-crown crest make it a much more elegant display piece for a library or coffee table.

I was impressed with the beautiful quality of my hooked poinsettia throw pillows. They look stylish and lavish on my sofas . The service in getting them before Christmas was remarkable. I had tried another business but to no avail. I am a very happy customer of House of Andaloo.
