Ceylon Daily News Cookery Book
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"Collectors of a country's folklore are esteemed as benefactors. Why should not the collectors of a country's indigenous recipes? Indeed a representative list of the recipes handed from generation to generation of Ceylon's housewives will reflect the march of the Island's history. There are, first, the dishes known to many generations of Sinhalese and Tamils. Then there are other Eastern delicacies, introduced into Ceylon by the Arabs, Malays and Moors. Finally, we see in our list of Ceylon recipes the influence of the Portuguese, Dutch and British occupations to say nothing of French cookery which has revolutionized all European cooking. The 'Ceylon Daily News' Cookery Book endeavours to preserve all the best recipes handed to the present by past generations....No trouble has been spared to make the book as comprehensive as possible in recipes of Ceylon origin or a distinctly Ceylon interest."--Page ii.
