About This Item
New York: E P Dutton & Company, 1921. Book. Good. Hardcover. Twenty-fourth Impression. Mild wear to book and some red stain from the dust jacket on the edges of the rear endpapers and the last several pages. The printed red paper dust jacket has moisture damage on the rear panel and a few spots elsewhere. Still a readable copy of this 100-year-old diet book that emphasizes avoiding sugar, starch, and oils among other things. It goes in the direction of popular, modern-day low-carb diets. 104 pages with book ads at the back of the book. A lengthy Preface by Thompson, in which he writes rather harshly of corpulence in men and women, is followed by the Mahdah menus, ordered by season..
