 Stroup, "Henry Salt on Shelley: Literary Criticism and Ecological Identity", Romanticism and Ecology, ...
Salt is a Romantic, in the optimistically generic sense: he has a secular faith in the power of the sympathetic imagination, fueled by a love of the natural world, to change material conditions.
Salt, however, is up to something else, and his concerns went underground, in a sense, until the recent development of franker versions of autobiographical criticism.
For Salt to analyze Shelley dispassionately, to engage with challenging ideas in his works and then fail to proceed on a course of reform and hopeful progress, would have been wholly inadequate to the experience of allowing himself to be so available to poetry's power.

When I talked with Henry S. Salt last summer and saw his keen eyes looking at me from the vantage point of eighty-six years on the frontiers of human reform, I became conscious that I was in the presence of greatness, that a vast deal of life lay behind so keen an understanding.
That its sheer range may be appreciated, and omitting all of his periodical articles, I have compiled a list of the various editions of Mr.
Salt's separate publications and send the list as a tribute to the English and best biographer of Thoreau, hoping to remind us that there still is in the world one protestant against man's inhumanity.

 Reducing Your Salt Intake - Detroit, Michigan, MI, Henry Ford
Sodium is a mineral that occurs naturally in foods.  It helps maintain fluid balance, regulate blood pressure, transmit nerve impulses and maintain muscle activity.  For survival purposes, our bodies only need about 500 milligrams of sodium each day.  The average American consumes about 4,000 to 6,000 milligrams of sodium a day.
When cooking rice or pasta, don't add salt to the boiling water.  When making rice or pasta side dishes, make your own lower sodium herb and spice mixes rather than purchasing flavored rice and pasta mixes.
