“Here are tales of how men have eaten in all ages. The savages reveling in long pig, Lucullus and his Roman friends dallying over nightingales’ tongues. Here are the moving histories of the beginnings and glorious consummations of the wines and liquors which to-day make glad our hearts and light our steps. Here are anecdotes, here are the maxims of that prince of the table, Brillat-Savarin, in their original French, with the translations appended. We are given the evolution of the table utensils as well as the food because of which they exist, and the glass and porcelain come in for a share of encomiums as well as the soup or the entrée.”—N. Y. Times.
