This book is the first publication to systematically describe the phenomenon of Victorian children's vegetarianism and its representations in literature and culture. It will appeal to researchers of vegetarianism and veganism, human-animal relations, childhood studies, children's literature, periodical studies and Victorian studies.

The book is largely concerned with the history of Western culture of speed that forms the framework within which the phenomenon of slow living is placed. A comprehensive analysis of practices and representations of deceleration in everyday life - slow travel, slow London and slow lit - suggests the rise of a post-slow stage in the history of speed.
