Wonderful, wonderful book. If you are interested in the history of
spices, you want this books. However, if, like some SCA-cooks, you are
only interested in period manuscripts and/or period recipes, you don't
need it-- it's a secondary and tertiary source, not a primary one.

The butterfly upon the road/Preaches contentment to that toad."
