ISBN:  9780826359049 (pbk.) Alternate title:  Food history of the Southwest Description:  xii, 241 pages ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  In this entertaining history, Gregory McNamee explores the many ethnic and cultural traditions that have contributed to the food of the Southwest. He traces the origins of the cuisine to the arrival of humans in the Americas, the work of the earliest farmers of Mesoamerica, and the most ancient trade networks joining peoples of the coast, plains, and mountains. From the ancient chile pepper and agave to the comparatively recent fare of sushi and Frito pie, this culinary journey involves many players over space and time. Born of scarcity, migration, and climate change, these foods are now fully at home in the Southwest of today and with the 'southwesternization' of the American palate at large, they are now found across the globe. Gregory McNamee is the author of Gila: The Life and Death of an American River.
