Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky

1.0

I put this down after about 100 pages...it was so boring. Who needs dozens of recipes for how fish and other foods were salted in ancient cultures? One would have sufficed and kept the narrative moving along. There's actually a children's picture book version of this called "The Story of Salt" that you're better off reading, if you've got 8 minutes to spare.
