One of America's finest stylists has collected a charming mixed bag of nostrums, elixirs, restoratives, and fortifiers and relates them here interspersed with autobiographical anecdotes from her life in California, Provence, Mexico and Switzerland.

5 FISHER, M. F. K.; MORRIS, JAN (INTRODUCTION). Long Ago In France: The Years In Dijon.
Touchstone Books, New York: 1992. 0671755145 / 9780671755140 s Softcover. Good condition. 
In 1929, Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher, young, innocent, and newly married, arrived in Dijon, the provincial capital of Burgundy and the gastronomical capital of France. By the end of her three-year stay, living with her husband in an old pension and studying at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, Mrs. Fisher's innocence would be gone and Europe would be on the verge of violent upheaval. In this exquisitely evocative, deliciously cndid memoir, she looks back at her unique initiation into the ways of love and life. "She's good at falling in love, in all kinds of ways with all kinds of things: people, ideas, moments. And that's what her writing is about: enthousiasms. People who think she's a food writer are merely concentrating on one of her enthousiasms." - Jeanette Ferrary, New York Times Book Review
