I'm not here to argue cook books. What I am saying is that Escoffier was the first to produce a cookbook of recipes and techniques that started the world of modern cuisine. The rest are just cookbooks/recipes scattered around the world.

Most of the "old" cookbooks are really menus of what royalty dined on, we know what they ate but have little information on how or the ingredients involved.

And if we were to delve into the culinary world, you'll find more "frauds" there than even green beret/seal frauds.......
