California cuisine became an international culinary phenomenon in the 1970s, emphasizing fresh, seasonal ingredients, in combinations inspired by a diverse array of ethnic traditions. Vintage California Cuisine shows how the pieces of that culinary puzzle began to emerge more than a century ago, in cookbooks published by celebrity chefs, vegetarian advocates, ordinary housewives, and others.

For centuries, advocates of a vegetarian diet have been promoting the virtues of their dietary practices - and publishing recipes to show adherents and skeptics alike how to prepare appealing, healthy meals without meat. Vintage Vegetarian Cuisine traces that campaign through 15 landmark vegetarian cookbooks, starting with a collection of salad recipes from London in 1699 and ending with a soybean cookbook published in the American heartland during the Great Depression.

Mark Thompson was born on January 24, 1956.
Mark Thompson graduated from Columbia University Law School, where he earned a Juris Doctor degree.
Mark Thompson is a New York journalist and writer. He is also a contributor of articles to the Los Angeles Times, Atlantic, New Republic, Wall Street Journal, Economist, and In Season. Presently, Thompson is the associate editor of Current History, a journal of contemporary world affairs.
Thompson is the author of a biography, American Character: The Curious Life of Charles Fletcher Lummis and the Rediscovery of the Southwest. Charles Lummis was born in New England and became a student at Harvard University. His academic studies did not particularly interest him, but he befriended a fellow member of his class, Theodore Roosevelt, a connection that would be renewed in his later years. When Lummis was twenty-five years old, he gained national attention by walking from Cincinnati to Los Angeles, during the fall and winter months between 1884 and 1885, to begin his journalistic career with the Los Angeles Times. Lummis, however, was not merely a journalist. He was a man skilled in many areas, including anthropology, musicology, archaeology, and photojournalism. A man who did not even allow blindness or partial paralysis to deter his prodigious activities, he was a tireless activist, environmentalist, and defender of the rights of Native Americans. Due to Lummis's activism, President Roosevelt established a new approach to the relationship between the federal government and Native American tribes. Mark Thompson's second book, Vintage California Cuisine, traces the origins of the state's unique culinary sensibility to the earliest cookbooks published in California.
