- Start? This is one of the best articles I have read. Its knowledgeable, complete, unbiased. Wikized, Its actually ENJOYABLE. vs the article on http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/B%C3%A9chamel_sauce which ranks as one of the WORST articles. Biased, incomplete, a pain to read. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.156.92 (talk) 15:29, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
eBook link
[edit]The first link - to the ebook - is broken --76.124.65.73 (talk) 17:22, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
- The book is from the 16th century, surely it has been out of copyright for hundreds of years?
- Ill try and find it...
- The link is correct. You must click on Download/Print and agree to the non-commercial use, and you download the French edition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.156.92 (talk) 15:52, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

This English language article says much the same thing as the article in French Wikipedia but I felt that the French description of events in the 17th century gave a much better impression than the archaic text from which the author quoted in the English article. Rather than tagging it on, I felt the article would read better if I simply replaced the archaic text --Mike hayes 06:32, 8 June 2007 (UTC) I felt that the full title of the book by Bonnefons is unneccesary and so I have truncated it to improve narrative flow. --Mike hayes 07:11, 8 June 2007 (UTC) |
