Hamburgers, Pizza, Pancakes: reception report. 18 November 2008 9:27 pm
Posted by Tracy in : books,geekery,history , 1 comment so farOn Tuesday, 18 November 2008 I went to “Hamburgers, Pizza, Pancakes” — a reception and presentations at The National Arts Club. The occasion: a book release party for the launch of The Edible Series by Reaktion Books, distributed by the University of Chicago Press. As previously mentioned, it was so much fun I bought the first three books in the series:
Andrew Smith’s Hamburger, Carol Helstosky’s Pizza, and Ken Albala’s Pancake.
Each of the books is subtitled “A Global History,” but the authors took different approaches to their research and writing. (more…)
