Letter: Hitler's lentils

Published 11 February 1995

From Claire Weeks

Ursula Mittwoch, in her review of Feminism, Animals and Science: The Naming of the Shrew, makes the mistake of naming Hitler as a vegetarian (Review, 21 January). He was not, but followed a non-meat diet occasionally for medical reasons.
