WIP Book Club: An Edible History of Humanity

Sept. 20, 2018, 7:30pm

An Edible History of Humanity, written by Tom Standage, encompasses the history of the world from prehistoric times to modern day by following the history of foods and agricultural techniques. The book has been received with both positive and mixed reviews, and should be an interesting way to kick off this year's book club with its theme of food!

The event will be hosted at the home of Taylor Lenton, '08.  If you would like to purchase the book, Vroman's will offer a 20% discount for whichever book we are reading that month.  Just say that you're part of the Wellesley-in-Pasadena book club at the checkout!
