520    Fondly remembered as the centerpiece of family 
       Thanksgiving reunions, the turkey is a cultural symbol as 
       well as a multi-billion dollar industry. As a bird, dinner,
       commodity, and national icon, the turkey has become as 
       American as the bald eagle (with which it actually 
       competed for supremacy on national 
       insignias)._x000B__x000B_Food historian Andrew F. Smith's 
       sweeping and multifaceted history of Meleagris gallopavo 
       separates fact from fiction, serving as both a solid 
       historical reference and a fascinating general read. With 
       his characteristic wit and insatiable curiosity, Smith 
       presents the turkey in ten courses, beginning with the 
       bird itself (actually several different species of turkey)
       flying through the wild. The Turkey subsequently includes 
       discussions of practically every aspect of the iconic bird,
       including the wild turkey in early America, how it came to
       be called "turkey," domestication, turkey mating habits, 
       expansion into Europe, stuffing, conditions in modern 
       industrial turkey factories, its surprising commercial 
       history of boom and bust, and its eventual ascension to 
       holiday mainstay. The second half of the book collects an 
       amazing array of over one hundred historical and modern 
       turkey recipes from across America and Europe. Historians 
       will enjoy a look back at the varied appetites of their 
       ancestors, and seasoned cooks will have an opportunity to 
       reintroduce a familiar food in forgotten ways._x000B_
