Hardcover
Delightful vintage guide to entertaining for the novice host. From the flap:
"If you're a college guy or gal, bachelor or career woman, young bride or dad, cooking might not be a snap. Pearl Gordon made her contribution to solving this problem by writing SIMPLY ELEGANT. The book is much more. Though it's geared to elegant dining, it's written so that the beginner can successfully turn out both elaborate and simple dishes. A great cookbook-guide for simple, elegant dining... a mouth-watering collection of dishes, many of gourmet variety, but the instructions are simple enough for a college-boy cook." (Circa 1970.)
