Salt: A World History
by Mark Kurlansky
by Mark Kurlansky
I picked up this book because the idea of someone writing an entire book on salt was...alarming. I wanted to see if the author could pull it off. Surprisingly enough, he did. I felt kind of like I was watching that show Connections with how he tied everything together. It was a little dry in some spots, yes, but for the most part I found it to be really interesting. And the looks I got when I said, "I'm reading a book on the history of salt." were pretty much priceless.
