Offered for auction: Very Rare! (I have not been able to find another copy anywhere on the internet!) NEW GUIDE for the HOTEL, BAR, RESTAURANT, BUTLER & CHEF Handbook for the Management of Hotels & American Bars By Bacchus and Cordon Bleu This is a very good clean copy, with all narrative pages intact including the Half Title and Title Pages, Preface and Synopsis to Part 1 which runs from pp9 - 186 and is about drinks of all kinds including wines, cocktails, spirits, liqueurs, beers, temperance drinks and cellarage. Part 2 runs from pp187 - 486 and covers Hotel & Restaurant Cookery with fabulous recipes. The detailed index for both parts runs from pp487 - 496 and is complete. The Preface was written by Bacchus and Cordon Bleu and it is clearly dated in print "London, September 1885" The only page missing from the book is the inside back blank page and there is slight damage/ discolouration to the inside front blank page - see photographs. The book has the following name & address written on the inside front board which is repeated in neat script at the top of the second title page : Jack Walker, 61 Blythswood St., Aigbuth, Liverpool.
