SUMMARY
"As the first tropical fruit to fit into both a middle-class U.S. breakfast and a workingman's lunchbox, bananas-yellow, soft, and innocent-were a slightly comical, faintly suspect, always welcome by-product of the Yankee imperial reach. These essays illuminate some of the geopolitical, environmental, and human costs of the banana's enormous everyday popularity."-Sidney Mintz, author ofTasting Food, Tasting Freedom: Excursions into Eating, Culture, and the PastStriffler, Steve is the author of 'Banana Wars Power, Production, and History in the Americas' with ISBN 9780822331964 and ISBN 0822331969.
