Food in the United States, 1820s-1890 by Susan Williams

wmhenrymorris's review

Interesting from a survey/lists perspective. I would have liked more detail and context in a lot of places -- we get individual recipes here and there and huge long lists, but what about a few pages of reproductions of restaurant menus or stats on sales and production of various products or advertisements? Also: there's no end chapter that summarizes and wraps things up.
