Crown 8vo. 7-5/8" x 5-1/8" <br/><br/>The author born in a log cabin in Randolph county near Richmond Indiana to parents who were members of the Society of Friends. Susanna was the eldest of thirteen children was enormously ambitious and at an early age decided on a college education. In 1864 she received a degree from the New York Hygeio-Therapeutic College. In 1870 Dr. Dodds began to practice in St Louis. In this practice she was joined by her husband's sister Dr. Mary Dodds. As physicians the two did much for the physical redemption of women. Dr. S. Dodds became dean of the St. Louis Hygienic College of Physicians and Surgeons as well as a member of its faculty. She published this work in addition to papers in health journals detailing her philosophy of the benefits stemming from a 'hygienic' diet. While not a strictly vegetarian cook-book the author makes no qualms about her preference for non-meat cookery. for example on p. 48 we find her opining "If there is a practice in all of Christendom that deserves the censure of this enlightened age it is that of eating swine's flesh."
