Excerpt from The Cost of Food: A Study in DietariesThis edition is offered in order to continue the useful ness of this little book of Mrs. Richards'. It is still hers. Revision has been made only where present-day ideas are radically different from those of ten years ago, with an attempt to give costs more nearly those of today. The figures used are chie¿y those of 1915 - 1916, since it is difficult to determine a basis at present on account of the in¿ated prices of 1917. A comparison of the prices of a few foods in New York in 1901 and 1916 will illustrate the general trend.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
