Gilt-dec. & lettered green cloth. First Edition. NY: Alliance Publishing, 1898.

One of the first vegetarian cookbook published in America. Henrietta Marshall Latham (18401909) was the wife of Oakland broker James H. Latham and an early advocate for animal welfare. Dwight\’s cookbook is filled with delightful recipes showing how a full diet can be had without meat of any kind.

Her introduction shows the author to be driven mainly by animal rights and health concerns, and she quotes many prominent authors of the day on the subject, from Sylvester Graham to Annie Besant Published in 1898 by the Alliance Publishing Company, the volume has a bright gilt and embossed cover and contains over 300 recipes including: Sweet Potato Croquettes, Mock Fish Chops, and a Border Timbale of Mock Chicken and numerous simple recipes for cakes and other sweets.

Fine and bright. Scarce.
