I have a cookbook, The French Cook by Louis Eustache Ude, originally printed in Philadelphia in 1828, reprinted 1978 by Arco Publishing company, which is chock full of period recipes and instructions for formal banquets. The author was chef to the Duke of York.
Have not tried any of the recipes but am impressed by how extraordinarily labor-intensive most of them look.
