This is subtitled "A Savory Selection of Food Writing from Around the World and Throughout History."
It is amazingly entertaining to anyone interested in food. Kurlansky's selections are unique to his own love of historical trivia as well as reflecting his sense of humor. The pieces, of which I've only read a half a dozen or so, offer more of a window on how people think about food, then practical advice or recipes. What a fun book!
