With the insatiable curiosity of a sociologist, he observes human behaviour with regard to dining, and he goes in search of its social and historical roots. The material used to illustrate the book is particularly rich and varied, containing paintings and engravings, miniatures and tapestries, excerpts from old cookbooks and herbals. The author comments on everything with his great historical and culinary erudition. New.
