Hawley’s Reviews > The Food Explorer: The True Adventures of the Globe-Trotting Botanist Who Transformed What America Eats > Status Update

So far, this book is truly fascinating. This true story has connections to cultural shifts, historically important changes and events (if you’re a homeschool mom like I am, you might notice CC memory work throughout! So fun), and well, it’s just a masterpiece. The character of the man Barbour Lathrop and the curiosity of David Fairchild is such a funny mix. I am thoroughly riveted!
