About the author
Florence Ethel Daniel, born Florence Ethel Worland in 1877, was an English writer and magazine editor linked with vegetarian cooking, health reform, and the Tolstoyan movement. She also wrote as F. E. Worland, and she is best known today for books such as Food Remedies and The Healthy Life Cook Book.
She worked closely with her husband, the publisher Charles William Daniel, on periodicals connected with pacifist, vegetarian, and health reform circles. In the 1920s, she also edited Focus, a monthly magazine concerned with health and everyday well-being.
Daniel’s writing is notable for its practical tone: she wrote for readers who wanted simple guidance on cooking, diet, and healthier habits rather than grand theory. She died on September 4, 1927, but her work still offers a vivid glimpse of an earlier movement for natural food and thoughtful living.
