Summary

** "Deadly Adulteration and Slow Poisoning Unmasked" by Anonymous is a revealing examination of the dishonest tricks used to make food and drinks during the 1800's. This book throws light on how businesses would change common foods, drinks and even everyday medicines like beer, wine, and spirits without telling anyone. The book outlines exactly what was done to make these items cheaper to create, but much less safe to use. The impact of these adulterations ultimately exposed the terrible health scares the public faced at the time and how those health scares were easily avoidable. The author is determined to expose these shady practices and the merchants behind them, so that rules may have to change. **
