Book Description

When Vegetarian and Simple Diet came out in 1904 it was positively reviewed in The Lancet journal, 'we are glad to welcome the appearance of a book which will teach householders that appetising dishes can be made from vegetables with the aid of eggs and milk products.'
Dealer Notes
Colonel Arthur Robert Kenney-Herbert (1840-1916) was a British soldier who served in the British Indian Army. He wrote regular articles for The Madras Mail and The Daily News on Indian cookery, using the pen name Wyvern. After retiring from the army in 1892 and returning to England, he started a cookery school, The Common-sense Cookery Association in 1894 in London.
