Escoffier
Not quite as easy to work out which is the must have book.
Key thing is to make sure it's translated & not in French.
There seem to be two worth getting:
Le guide culinaire - translated to english.
£38ish
Review - click here
The culinary bible that first codified French cuisine now in an updated English translation with Forewords from Chefs Heston Blumenthal and Tim Ryan
OR
Escoffier: The Complete Guide to the Art of Modern Cookery
About £66
This translation supercedes A Guide to Modern Cookery, the English version first published in 1907
