First published in 1961, A Cordiall Water collects a charming mixed
bag of nostrums, elixirs, restoratives, and fortifiers and
intersperces them with autobiographical anecdotes from M. F. K.
Fisher's life in California, Provence, Mexico and Switzerland.
These engaging recipes, "a perfect combination of superstition,
instinct, and primitive knowledge" deal with commonplace
ailments--sore throats, cures for cats, aging skin, fevers, PMS and
hangovers. Ingredients of these extraordinary receipts are
transformed into cures and preventatives told in the inimitable
style of this master of the finely observed life.
