Rarely do we consider that the variety & abundance of today's edibles are the result of years & years of human ingenuity. Through lively, accessible writing & detailed full-color illustrations that are brimful of humor & personality, the renowned author/artist Piero Ventura brings immediacy & entertainment to the subject of world history. Readers will find fascination, amusement, & surprise in this clever tribute to human inventiveness. Juvenile audiences.
