Hilda Leyel (1880-1957) was a leading light in herbalism in Britain. In 1927, the year after the publication of this book she founded The Society of Herbalists and went on to establish the Culpeper chain of herbal shops. Cold Grouse and Prune Salad, is certainly a mouth-watering delicacy, whereas Salade Monte Carlo, combining banana with tomatoes, grapes and mayonnaise with anchovy sauce, is debatable.
