(Healthy) Stella Standard. Whole Grain Cookery: A Gourmet Guide to Glowing Health

Preface by Pearl S. Buck. Jacket. First Edition. NY: John Day, [1951].

Pre-dating the 1960's health craze (though arguably following the 1920's health craze), this charming cookbook is replete with nutritious recipes using corn, soy, pearl barley, brown and wild rice, rye, etc. The second half is mostly whole grain breads; quite ahead of its time!

Chipping and tears to jacket, piece of jacket lacking from spine head and upper front panel (affecting title), else good and bright.
