In the "Strawberry Fields" shows how public demand for a soft red fruit is causing mass migration from Central America and changing California's political economy forever. "An amazing secret history of America's favourite vices". ("Independent"). "A shocking journey through the underside of the world's mightiest economy". ("The Times")."Schlosser tells us things we already suspect to be true, but don't dare think about". ("Daily Telegraph"). "Superb .mind-blowing .quite simply the non-fiction book of the year".
