The Fish That Ate the Whale: The Life and Times of America's Banana King by Rich Cohen

4.0

Quite interesting look at history as it related to a Russian immigrant who became a powerhouse in the fruit export business. Both local to Louisiana and dealing with world affairs, the book touches on Huey Long, the CIA, the Zionist movement, the Depression, WWII, and more, and always bananas. Well written and food for thought.
