Hungry cannibals, witches gathering around a cauldron, or a king over his blackbird pie often populated his celebrated cartoons. And, of course, Morticia of the "Addams Family" was an avid cook, adding a touch of eye of newt or popping over to the neighbors for a cup of cyanide. So it should come as no wonder that in the 1960s Charles Addams was dabbling with a "cookbook" idea. Addams discovered and compiled some bizarre recipes from antiquated and out-of-the-way sources. These recipes have very Addams-like names, such as "Mushrooms Fester" or "Hearts Stuffed," and serve as a perfect complement to his drawings. Chas Addams™ Half-Baked Cookbook is a collection of his work on the world of food and eating, featuring many Addams drawings that have never been seen before, as well as some of his all-time classics.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 187mmItem Width: 10mmItem Weight: 208gAuthor: Charles AddamsContributor: Allen Weiss (Foreword by)Genre: Humour & Joke BooksRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
