Item description from seller

Len Deighton's Action Cook Book is a cult classic guide targeting 1960s men, bridging the gap between bachelorhood and sophisticated cooking. It compiles his famous Observer "cookstrips" - cartoon-style, illustrated recipes - offering straightforward instructions for dishes like chicken à la Kiev and Bà arnaise sauce. The book emphasizes practical, modern cooking, including sections on kitchen gadgets and quick "bachelor foods". The bookâs primary, revolutionary feature is the "cookstrip" format - a visual, cartoon-strip style recipe designed for easy following, created by Deighton for his own kitchen use. The content is concise and humorous, reflecting Deightonâs background as a graphic artist and his training as a chef. First Thus. Size: Oblong 24mo - over 5" - 5¾" tall. 256 pages.
