143 items on food, drink, cookery and closely related subjects from Europe, Mexico, and the US from the 16th to the 20th century. The first Aldine Libri de re Rustica, books on bread from the 17th and the 20th centuries, collections of dried mushrooms, and a group of rare food books which, as the best cookbooks often do, show evidence of enthusiastic use. Also, an extensive section of Mexican books including a colonial era manuscript cookery and an early cantina book -- AND a Dieter Roth rabbit-poop-rabbit.
