Finger tabs on outside edge for each section of book. Large and comprehensive cookbook with recipes for all types of foods, including French Recipes and Food for Invalids.

Publishing Flaw: There are several pages (about 2/3rds of the way through book) that were cut incorrectly, resulting in the top of 1 page appearing upside down at the top of another page. (For example, a small portion of the top of page 567 is upside down at the top of page 576.)
