                Subject:        Cooking archives?

                Does anybody know of a library or archives in the US or UK
which collects
                cookbooks, or of any other source for expert advice on early
cookbooks?
                Someone I know is trying to get information on a cookbook
she acquired. It
                appears to be late 18th or early 19th century, possibly
English rather than
                American. Unfortunately, it's missing the title page. Any
ideas on where
                she might get help?

                Thanks,

                Michele
