Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky

2.0

A summary of each chapter: This ancient culture produced salt. They used it to preserve fish. Here's a recipe to prove it.

This book is drier than your mouth after an overly salted dish. There is no art at all to the book. Kurlansky just vomits facts on the page. Each chapter is the exact same formula. Also, the book is about 200 pages too long.
