The book Adulteration of Food, Drink, and Drugs: Being the Evidence Taken Before the Parliamentary Committee (1855) is a comprehensive collection of evidence presented before a select committee of the British Parliament in 1855. The committee was tasked with investigating the widespread adulteration of food, drink, and drugs in England during the mid-19th century. The book presents a detailed account of the testimony given by various witnesses, including manufacturers, retailers, and experts, as well as the committee's findings and recommendations. The evidence presented in the book reveals the shocking extent of adulteration practices in the food and drink industry, including the use of harmful substances such as lead, copper, and arsenic. The book also highlights the impact of these practices on public health and the need for stricter regulations and enforcement. Overall, Adulteration of Food, Drink, and Drugs is an important historical document that sheds light on a significant public health issue and the efforts made to address it in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
