The Hygeian Home Cook-Book; or, Healthful and Palatable Food Without Condiments


First Edition. New York: S. R. Wells, 1874.

The first American vegan cookbook! Gilt stamped cloth 12mo, 72pp + [12]p ads. Good to Very Good, rubbing wear, front joint touched up, mottled cloth, and some dampstaining--most apparent on the endpapers, with a residual faint tidemark visible along the bottom edge of the first few pages. A rare copy of the first American vegan cookbook, which under-promises a guide to "palatable food without condiments," and possibly over-delivers with over 10 recipes for potatoes and an entire chapter devoted to "Mushes." Great ads at rear for all the latest natural health and nutrition how-to's (and with-what's). 4 copies in OCLC (LOC, Kansas, Brown, George Mason)
