Don Dunstan's Cookbook
Shipping
Don Dunstan’s Cookbook (1976) pairs the charismatic former South Australian premier with celebrated illustrator Robert Ingpen to celebrate home-grown Australian cuisine. This first-edition hardcover delivers 96 pages of approachable 1970s recipes, capturing the era’s emerging taste for fresh local produce and multicultural flavours.
Ingpen’s lively drawings appear on almost every page, turning simple instructions into a visual feast that matches Dunstan’s relaxed, conversational tone. Together they showcase everything from backyard barbecues to elegant dinner-party dishes, making the book both a practical kitchen companion and a nostalgic slice of Aussie food history.
The dust-jacketed volume remains in good, collector-worthy shape: binding tight, no writing or dog-ears, just light thumb marks and a couple of small spots as noted. It comes from a smoke-free home and feels ready for another decade of browsing and cooking.
Ideal for lovers of vintage cookbooks, Australian culinary heritage, or Don Dunstan fans seeking a unique piece of political and gastronomic memorabilia.
