Book Summary
The true adventures of David Fairchild, a late-nineteenth-century food explorer
who traveled the globe and introduced diverse crops like avocados, mangoes,
seedless grapes--and thousands more--to the American plate. In the nineteenth
century, American meals were about subsistence, not enjoyment. But as a new
century approached, appetites broadened, and David Fairchild, a young botanist
with an insatiable lust to explore and experience the world, set out in search
of foods that would enrich the American farmer and enchant the American eater.
Kale from Croatia, mangoes from India, and hops from Bavaria. Peaches from
China, avocados from Chile, and pomegranates from Malta. Fairchild's finds
weren't just limited to food:
