Details: A book for the pizza obsessed, with 80 charming illustrations and information about the history, ingredients, and lore of everyone's favorite food. Pizza is a food that lends itself to legend and obsession, spanning Geography, generations, and gender. In lavish illustrations and hand-lettered text, pizzapedia celebrates all there is to fixate about: the stories behind its origin (we have the ancient Greeks to thank before the Italians); the delectable ingredients, from San marzano tomatoes to buffalo mozzarella; the failed and the famous inventions (like "the pizza Saver," The piece of plastic that prevents a pizza delivery box top from drooping into the pie); the merits of Sicilian vs. New York vs. Chicago vs. New (Detroit?!) styles; and much more. Like the universally beloved food, this art-driven book of miscellany is inviting, colourful, and a delicious gift to give and get.
