Try looking up “Westward Expansion”. I once visited the national museum of westward expansion which is loceted in St. Louis, Mo, Underneath the Arch. If i recall, Several displays spoke of diet.

I have one printed in 1940. It is written by the Browns but it doesn’t tell you who the publisher was. Has everything in ti from Aardvark to Zebra. Even tells you what flowers are safe to eat in salads and how to make cafiene free tea.
There is another called the Outdoorsman’s Cookbook printed in 1944 by The MACMILLAN Company of Canada.Limited
It tells you everything from how to make a canoe and a fire to foods to eat on the trail.
I’m Not giving mine up so good luck.
