Reviews"Max Miller is not only a prodigy, utterly charming, and witty, but a first-rate historian. He brings the culinary past to life, setting old recipes in context brilliantly and making them thoroughly accessible to the intrepid modern diner." --Ken Albala, professor of history, University of the Pacific, "A great sense of humor tempers Miller's erudition and encourages curious cooks to serve up some of these historical foods to entertain families and guests and provoke dinner table conversation." -- Booklist, Starred Review, "This is the perfect book for any food history fanatic (guilty as charged), or, in truth, any food fanatic. To create a series of beautifully realized and photographed recipes that take you on a path from the earliest written clay tablets of Babylon, all the way through history to the dishes that built the Americas, is a huge undertaking. However, it is one that Max Miller achieves with all the wit, enthusiasm, accessibility, and accuracy that have made his YouTube channel such a deserved internet sensation." --Simon Majumdar, author, television personality, and creator of the food history podcast Eat My Globe, "Even if we never make these dishes of ancient times, Miller's book is a fascinating read." -- New York Journal of Books, "Throughout, Miller skillfully balances history with tantalizing recipes, and manages to make even ancient fare accessible with suggested ingredient substitutions and an inviting tone. The result is a fascinating outing that will entice history buffs and home cooks alike." -- Publishers Weekly, "I love Tasting History and everything about this terrific cookbook. This is true time travel." --Phil Rosenthal, host of Somebody Feed Phil, "This fascinating book is a must-have for both history lovers and cooks alike. It leaves you feeling enlightened and inspired." --John Kanell, author of Preppy Kitchen
