18657261New York: D. Appleton and Company 443 & 445 Broadway 1865. Small octavo 18.5 x 12 cm. 200 4 pages. Advertisements. The First American Edition of Leonard Francis Simpson's English language translation of Brillat-Savarin's magnificent Physiologie du Gout. The earliest English language translation was that of Fayette Robinson published in Philadelphia in 1854. Simpson's translation here is quite unfaithful to the original admitting in the Introduction that "Many parts are however condensed others omitted as not suited to the present tone of society." Starting in 1864 editions of Simpson's translation published in the UK strayed even further with emphasis placed on a rejection of gourmandise and the title to what we have here. Quite a departure from Brillat-Savarin's original. But the translator did have high hopes for this book to affect a change upon Britain and presumably in America with this issue. The Translator's Preface has been omitted in this edition which is a shame as it takes the form of a discussion among Olympians where the goddess Gasterea speaks up to Jupiter informing him that "There is a race. of bold sea-girt islanders who worship me well in their way; indeed mighty fires of coal never cease to burn in my honour; but it a melancholy fact that London does not know 'How to Dine!'" The author proposes a reform movement starting with this book. In publisher's blind ruled and gilt-titled burgundy cloth. Very near fine. Bitting page 437; Cagle 104. D. Appleton and Company, 443 & 445 Broadway hardcover
