The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals by Michael Pollan (Paperback - Aug 28, 2007)

After having read "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan last summer, I find myself thinking of so many different passages as I shop, prepare meals, or even think about food. Beautifully written non-fiction, it is an important, eye-opening, fascinating book.

"The Worst Hard Time" is a different approach to the story of the Dust Bowl, concentrating on the people who stayed and suffered rather than on those who fled--searing stories of perseverance and courage.

Both books were recommended for this past summer's discussions and didn't make the cut. They are well worth your time and attention. Lecture over!        Joanne
