Just Cooking, Thanks by Noel Holmes A. H. & A. W. Reed, 13/6 Anyone who appreciates sea-food—pretty well everyone, that is—will be interested in this comprehensive guide to cooking sea-foods of all kinds. Noel Holmes' recipes include the old and the new; he quotes the traditional Maori methods with a proper respect, but also gives some recipes calling for such non-traditional ingredients as garlic, wine and spices. His enthusiasm is catching; a few moments with this book, and I defy you not to feel hungry. M.R.W.
