How To Dine In Style: The Art Of Entertaining, 1920

First published in 1920, How to Dine in Style opens a window onto the golden age of elegant dining, where the basic function of ingesting nourishment was elevated to a high social art, attended by intricate details and elaborate ritual.

Starched linens, candles, white gloves, apéritifs, ball suppers, French menus and garden-parties – this is the world of the decadent classes who came to prominence in the post-war period.

Published in an age where achieving a reputation for throwing recherché dinner parties was a route to international celebrity, this is a book about food as performance art. In it we catch tantalizing glimpses of astonishing excess such as the craze for eccentric venues for dinner parties, including the roof of a Chicago home (for amateur mountaineers), a lion’s den, and a gondola in the Savoy.

An engaging blend of practical advice and a catalogue of eccentricity, this book contains everything you need to know, from the fine art of composing a menu to the practicalities of the correct order and temperatures for serving wines.

Authentic cry baby tears
Size: 1 Pound
I LOVE this candy and eat waaaay more than I should. My only minor gripe is that both times I've ordered from this company the bad has been slightly underweight- less than half an ounce off so not a huge deal, but for almost $13 a point I would rather it be spot on. It is the actual candy though and not a knock off so I am happy about that at least.

Pretty good
Size: 1 Pound
So we're on the outside, not terribly sweet on the inside. Not the most sour candy I've ever had but very good and I really love sour things. It's fun watching people who don't like sour things eat them.

Love it
Format: Hardcover
Love. Love. Love. I love this book. Every single word in this book is so precious to me. If Gesenius was like a strict father, this one is like a mother who so kindly elaborates on many difficult notions. Thanks a lot for such a great book ❤️ (Even if it were $1000, I would buy it! The bibliography is so kindly sorted out by a subcategory~♡)

An indispensible Hebrew Language resource.
Format: Hardcover
This book is an amazing resource for anyone who has completed preliminary Hebrew such as with Pratico and Van Pelt in their Basics of Biblical Hebrew. This book goes above and beyond, it gives the diagnostic origin patterns for adjectives, patterns in noun formation as well as other components of speech, contrasts each of the seven major verb forms and the minor forms as well, and gives an excellent evolution of the utilization of the Hebrew language and its update in characters. It explains in its initial history a lot of unique statements in the Torah, and illustrations throughout give the reader an excellent idea about the Hebrew Scriptures. I bought this to aid in designing a language studies course at seminary and it has stood me in great help so far, going beyond anything I would have expected to get out of an intermediate level grammar and is an amazing, invaluable, and priceless resource, both to the professor, and the student. I recommend all people taking Hebrew purchase this book and add it to their collection and read it through cover to cover as well as using it as a topical reference guide.
