Everything need to know on eating healthy as vegan/vegetarian - R. Vandivort - washington DC
This is a comprehensive yet readable discussion of how vegans and vegetarians can get all the various nutrients they need from foods. It was so good I ordered a copy for each of my two daughters who are both vegans and they enjoyed it too!
