(NESTLÉ, Henri.) LEBERT, H[ermann]. ~ A treatise on milk and Henri Nestlé’s milk food, for the earliest period of infancy and in later years. Vevey, Switzerland and London: H. Nestlé, 1878.
This promotional pamphlet seems to have been printed in several issues: the earliest version in English we have found is 1875.
