Description

Tracing the intertwined roles of food, ethnicity, and regionalism in the construction of American identity, this textbook examines the central role food plays in our lives. Drawing on a range of disciplines - including sociology, anthropology, folklore, geography, history, and nutrition - the editors have selected a group of engaging essays to help students explore the idea of food as a window into American culture.
