A beautifully illustrated journey through the history of food, created by celebrated children's book artists Maud and Miska Petersham.
First published in 1933, The Story Book of Food explores where our food comes from and how people have gathered, grown, and prepared it throughout history. The Petershams bring these everyday subjects to life through their distinctive, richly colored illustrations and wonderful sense of design.
This lovely 1947 edition is a beautiful example of mid-century children's book illustration and an especially appealing find for admirers of vintage picture books.
