Reviews
Essays covering the history, economics, and social aspects of food; divided into Prehistory and Early Civilization, The Classical World, Late Classical to Early Middle Ages, Westerners and Others, Late Middle Ages, Europe of Nation States, and The Contemporary Period, each with an introductory essay. Introductions and some essays are highly entertaining, while other essays are informative but dry. No red flags.
