   The NYPL has only two entries for "Cookery, Maltese."  The earliest is
1997.  This was the earliest in the LOC.  It's still not very early--no date
is on the booklet, but it is stamped May 3, 1968.  There are also no page
numbers.
   Two trips ago, in the Ukraine, it was commented to me that a measure of
how ready a place is for tourism is if it has an English language cookbook
for sale.  Well...
