They oil the wheels of diplomacy, smooth the paths of the ambitious, and spread joy at family celebrations. Fletcher has written a history of feasts throughout the ages that includes the dramatic failures along with the dazzling successes. From a humble meal of potatoes provided by an angel, to the extravagance of the high medieval and Renaissance tables groaning with red deer and wild boar, to the exquisite refinement of the Japanese tea ceremony, this book covers them all.--From publisher's description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 394.12 Fl Checked In Add Copy to MyList
