The story of salt

Woolf, Alex2016
Books
Do you know since when we have been adding salt to our food? And where it originally came from? Like many other foods, salt has a fascinating history, spanning centuries, continents and cultures. Wars have been fought over this food, empires conquered and black markets have flourished. Other topics covered are health aspects of salt, how it is produced, its chemical properties and how it is traded around the world. An ideal leisure read, but also perfect for course work and presentations.
