I was building quite the list of books that I wanted to read that were cook books from the era and so I decided to look on Google Books to see if there was a free PDF version of them available. I have only started to read Hannah Glasse's book The Fine Art of Cookery and already find it very fascinating if not a little hard to comprehend.
Here are the links

The French Cook by Louis Eustache Ude (personal chef to the Prince Regent brought in after the end of the Napoleonic Wars)

Let me know if any of you find something good in these.
