I just finished Birdseye: The Adventures of a Curious Man by Mark Kurlansky. It's a fascinating look at the life of a man who genuinely revolutionized food in America.
While he was, personally, what we would now call a localvore, he made processed food possible for millions.
There are lots of adventures -- in the Arctic, Peru and NJ -- as this "can do" guy finds his inspiration.
Besides, what's better for a hot summer day than a bio about the invention of frozen food?
