Tortillas, Tiswin, and T-Bones : A Food History of the Southwest

In this entertaining and literate history, Gregory McNamee explores the many traditions, ethnic and cultural, that have contributed to the food of the Southwest. He traces the origins of the cuisine to the arrival of humans in the Americas, the work of the earliest farmers of Mosoamerica, and ancient trade networks that joined peoples of the coast, plains, and mountains.
