 | Spice: The History of a Temptation Brand: Vintage A brilliant, original history of the spice tradeâand the appetites that fueled it.<br><br> It was in search of the fabled Spice Islands and their cloves that Magellan charted the first circumnavigation of the globe. Vasco da Gama sailed the dangerous waters around Africa to India on a quest for Christiansâand spices. Columbus sought gold and pepper but found the New World. By the time these fifteenth- and sixteenth-century explorers set sail, the aromas of these savory, seductive seeds and powders had tempted the palates and imaginations of Europe for centuries. <br><br> <i>Spice: The History of a Temptation </i>is a history of the spice trade told not in the conventional narrative of politics and economics, nor of conquest and colonization, but through the intimate human impulses that inspired and drove it. Here is an exploration of the centuries-old desire for spice in food, in medicine, in magic, in religion, and in sexâand of the allure of forbidden fruit lingering in the scents of cinnamon, pepper, ginger, nutmeg, mace, and clove.<br> We follow spices back through time, through history, myth, archaeology, and literature. We see spices in all their diversity, lauded as love potions and aphrodisiacs, as panaceas and defenses against the plague. We journey from religious rituals in which spices were employed to dispel demons and summon gods to prodigies of gluttony both fantastical and real. We see spices as a luxury for a medieval kingâs ostentation, as a mummyâs deodorant, as the last word in haute cuisine.<br><br> Through examining the temptations of spice we follow in the trails of the spice seekers leading from the deserts of ancient Syria to thrill-seekers on the Internet. We discover how spice became one of the first and most enduring links between Asia and Europe. We see in the pepper we use so casually the relic of a tradition linking us to the appetites of Rome, Elizabethan England, and the pharaohs. And we capture the pleasure of spice not only at the table but in every part of life.<br><br> <i>Spice </i>is a delight to be savored.<br><br><br><i>From the Hardcover edition.</i> | *$8.33 |

It helped form the distinct character, attitudes, and customs of those who ate it.<BR><BR> In the 1930s, with the country gripped by the Great Depression and millions of Americans struggling to get by, FDR created the Federal Writers' Project under the New Deal as a make-work program for artists and authors.

 | Born Round: The Secret History of a Full-time Eater Brand: Penguin Press HC, The <b>The<i> New York Times</i> restaurant critic's heartbreaking and hilarious account of how he learned to love food just enough after decades of wrestling with his weight</b><br><br> Frank Bruni was born round. Round as in stout, chubby, and hungry, always and endlessly hungry. He grew up in a big, loud Italian family in White Plains, New York, where meals were epic, outsize affairs. At those meals, he demonstrated one of his foremost qualifications for his future career: an epic, outsize appetite for food. But his relationship with eating was tricky, and his difficulties with managing it began early. <br><br> When he was named the restaurant critic for the <i>New York Times</i> in 2004, he knew enough to be nervous. He would be performing one of the most closely watched tasks in the epicurean universe; a bumpy ride was inevitable, especially for someone whose writing beforehand had focused on politics, presidential campaigns, and the Pope. <br><br> But as he tackled his new role as one of the most loved and hated tastemakers in the New York restaurant world, he also had to make sense of a decades-long love-hate affair with food, which had been his enemy as well as his friend. Now heâd have to face down this enemy at meal after indulgent meal. His Italian grandmother had often said, "Born round, you donât die square." Would he fall back into his worst old habits? Or had he established a truce with the food on his plate? <br><br> In tracing the highly unusual path Bruni traveled to become a restaurant critic, <i>Born Round</i> tells the captivating story of an unpredictable journalistic odyssey and provides an unflinching account of one personâs tumultuous, often painful lifelong struggle with his weight. How does a committed eater embrace food without being undone by it? <i>Born Round</i> will speak to every hungry hedonist who has ever had to rein in an appetite to avoid letting out a waistband, and it will delight anyone interested in matters of family, matters of the heart, and the big role food plays in both. <br><br> | *$12.87 |
