In this groundbreaking book Dr. Peters captures the distinct flavor
of her times and place: America in the early 20th Century. This is
not just a diet and health book. It is a historic artifact as well.
It is a glimpse of American life when cars and phones were just
becoming a part of daily life, there were no televisions and the
1920s were just beginning to Roar. Men, and even women, like Dr.
Peters, were going off to war in Europe. 'Diet & Health with
Keys to the Calories ' is where it all started. It is the first
modern day simple and basic guide to eating right and losing
weight. What was sound advise in 1918 is still sound today. It may
also have been the friendly, perky, yet direct way that Dr. Peters
addresses the issue of weight that earned her such a large
following in the 1920s. We've taken a simple book and improved it
and made it more accessible. To make it easier on the eyes we've
enlarged the type (12 pt.) and used a new character font (Georgia).
We didn't just scan an old book and put a new cover on it. We
enlarged the book size to 6"x 9." And, we've given you additional
dietary ideas in a new final chapter. We've left nothing out, nor
edited Dr. Peters. She speaks for her self as she did almost a
century ago.
