Bite by bite : American history through feasts, foods, and side dishes

Aronson, Marc (author.). Freedman, Paul, 1949- (author.). Opie, Frederick Douglass, (contributor.). Palacios, Amanda, (contributor.). Willis, Tatum, (contributor.). Zheng, Kaigui, (contributor.). Chambers, Toni, (illustrator.).

Summary: "A middle-grade nonfiction book cowritten by Marc Aronson and historian/food writer Dr. Paul Freedmand with contributors Dr. Frederick Douglass Opie, Tatum Willis, Amanda Palacios, and David Zheng. American food and, by extension, American identify is much broader than the phrase "as American as apple pie." In a series of meals that take readers from pre-1492 through today, the text explores this country's identify and history through the lens of food, highlighting how cultures and histories mix to create the rich tapestry of America."--
