Food and Flavor: A Gastronomic Guide to Health and Good Living
Henry T. Finck and Charles Shepard Chapman
Dr. Wiley's poison squad ate borax for science, and Henry Finck explains why it mattered. Food and Flavor argues that taste itself is health's best guide, covering the danger in our food, breakfast, dinner, and supper, and food missionaries in the far West. A gastronomic case for flavor as civilization. Savor the argument course by course.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
