Henry Salt argues vegetarianism like the debater he was: the moralist at the shambles, structural evidence, the appeal to nature, each objection met in essays and staged dialogues. The logic of vegetarianism convinced readers as eminent as Gandhi, who knew Salt's work well. Reasoned advocacy, still sharp. Argue with him if you can.
