Böcker i Food on the Go-serien

This book explores the history of food in flight from hydrogen balloons to the space station: what was served, how and why; the problems with heating, cooling, and serving technology; logistics; overcoming cultural barriers; and the effect of altitude on our senses of taste and smell.

Food on the Rails traces the rise and fall of food on the rails from its rocky start to its glory days to its sad demise. Looking at the foods, the service, the rail station restaurants, the menus, the dining accommodations and more, Jeri Quinzio brings to life the history of cuisine and dining in railroad cars from the early days through today.

Food is a defining part of any walk, through ice or sand, high mountains or deep valleys, in new continents or on well-trodden trails. This book explores why we eat when we walk, as well as what we eat and how. Across geographies, the type of walk determines the food we eat, and more remarkably, food we eat represents the type of walkers we are.
