Four mini cookbooks in a slip case: The Baking of an English Loaf Dried Herbs, Aromatics and Condiments English Potted Meats and Fish Pastes Syllabubs and Fruit Fools In 1965 Elizabeth David opened a shop in Pimlico, London, where she sold Le Creuset pans and other hard-to-get-hold-of kitchen utensils. The store, with its marvellous window displays, was as influential as her books would eventually be, pioneering a new generation of shops devoted exclusively to kitchenware. Rosi Hanson, who worked in David s shop for two years says, She was good fun, and the shop was magical. She rather loved being a shopkeeper, perhaps because it gave her a rest from writing. If someone wanted some very specific piece of equipment, I often heard her say: ;If you could come back, I think I may have one at home. On evenings when we stayed late to do the windows, she would make a picnic for us all to eat: terrine, things in jelly. While she was still involved with the shop which bore her name, Elizabeth David Ltd, she produced a series of four little booklets: The Baking of an English Loaf, Dried Herbs, Aromatics and Condiments, English Potted Meats and Fish Pastes and Syllabubs and Fruit Fools which were sold exclusively in the shop. They were simple black and white productions which have now become rare, highly sought-after and very expensive collector s items. So Grub Street is delighted to have acquired the rights to these booklets from the David Estate and we are redesigning them as four hardback books in a slip case with specially commissioned beautiful artwork making them the perfect gift item. So for the first time in over 50 years these charming works will be available once again.

COMMON QUESTIONS

1. Do you offer free delivery?

Yes, The Book Bundle offers free UK delivery on orders over £35. This makes bundles and multi-book orders especially good value.

2. Why are the books so heavily discounted?

Discounts may come from publisher offers, special stock opportunities, clearance lines or bulk-buying advantages. The downside is that stock sells out extremely fast so we can't guarantee that your set will be available tomorrow. Secure it today.

All books sold by The Book Bundle are brand new.This makes them suitable for gifts, schools, home libraries, and collectors.

5. Is the price for the full bundle or just one book?
