Hi Harry:
James Beard apparently wrote _a_lot_of_books_... some of which are
out of print. See the collection of James Beard books at Amazon here
***you can read a summary of those books that are still in print***

I am guessing that the book you see might be "The Great Cook's Guide
to Clay Cookery: America's Leading Food Authorities Share Their Home-
Tested Recipes and Expertise on Cooking Equipment and Te..." which is
out of print. However, you can still try to order that book at
Amazon if that is the book you are looking for... (another long URL -
no spaces).
