Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a culinary journey through history, exploring the cultural significance of the oyster. It begins by examining the Ancient Greek and Roman reverence of the oyster, then explores the oyster's medieval decline and its later revival in 18th and 19th century Europe. The author discusses how advancements in transportation and preservation methods changed how humans consumed oysters between the 1700s and 1900s, with the growth of coastal oyster beds and the expansion of rail lines. This engaging and informative book also covers oyster farming techniques, the nutritional benefits of the oyster, and the legal protections put in place to preserve oyster populations for generations to come.
