ABOUT
An original publication by the Folio Society, this work looks at what people were eating in different areas at different times.
It shows how kitchen logic produced the same answers in widely separated societies – the Indian chapati being related to the Scots oatcake, and the modern American clambake to the food of prehistoric man. It then goes on to discuss the ramifications of trade and how certain foods became international favourites.
Includes monochrome and colour illustrations.
