This book is a classic text on vegetarianism and healthy eating, written by a pioneering physician and health reformer. It contains a wealth of information on the benefits of a plant-based diet, as well as recipes and advice on vegetarian cooking and nutrition. Originally published in the 19th century, it is considered one of the earliest and most influential vegetarian cookbooks in America. Its author believed that a diet of fresh fruits, vegetables, and grains was essential for good health and sought to spread this message to a wider audience. Even today, the book remains a valuable resource for those interested in vegetarianism and the importance of whole foods in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

" The present work, though written upon strictly vegetarian principles, is by no means addressed to vegetarians only. On the contrary, we hope that the following pages of recipes will be read by that enormous class throughout the country who during the last few years have been gradually changing their mode of living by eating far less meat, and taking vegetables and farinaceous food as a substitute.Where there are thousands who are vegetarians from choice, there are tens of thousands who are virtually vegetarians from necessity. Again, there is another large class who from time to time adopt a vegetarian course of diet on the ground of health, and as a means of escaping from the pains attendant on gout, liver complaint, or dyspepsia.The class we most wish to reach, however, is that one, increasing we fear, whose whole life is one continual struggle not merely to live, but to live decently.It may seem a strong statement, but we believe it to be a true one, that only those who have tried a strictly vegetarian course of diet know what real economy means. Should the present work be the means of enabling even one family to become not only better in health but richer in pocket, it will not have been written in vain."
