Synopsis

Fork Pierces Food unveils the surprisingly rich history of the fork, tracing its journey from a rare curiosity to an indispensable dining tool. This exploration illuminates how a simple utensil catalyzed significant shifts in social behavior, culinary practices, and Western culture itself. The book highlights fascinating facts, such as the initial resistance to the fork due to concerns about its effeminate nature and its eventual association with hygiene and refined table manners. The book delves into the fork's symbolic role as a status symbol, its influence on table manners, and its impact on food preparation. By examining historical documents, artwork, and etiquette manuals, it reveals how dining customs evolved alongside the fork's adoption. The book emphasizes the profound implications of technological change beyond mere functionality, highlighting its influence on values associated with dining. Beginning with the fork's medieval origins and its slow acceptance across Europe, the chapters progress to examine its impact on formal dining etiquette and food presentation. This approach offers readers a unique lens through which to understand broader historical and social transformations, revealing how a seemingly minor innovation reshaped Western dining traditions.

    For award-winning natural history writer David B. Williams, to be connected to a place you need to pause and look deeply at it. Wild in Seattle is Williams's delightful journey of discovery in this city where not only is nature all around, it's also written in the stones of the urban landscape. Explore the geologic history of glaciers, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes as well as the ways humans shape the Seattle topography. From backyards to downtown, watch for coyotes, crows, seals, otters, owls, and so much more wildlife who also call the region home. Look up at the buildings to find terra cotta eagles, stone that traveled over millions of years from Asia to the San Juan Islands, and clues to the horses who used to power the city's transportation network. Wrap your arms around a giant Douglas-fir, appreciate the unsung yet remarkable skunk cabbage, stop and listen to the spring chorus of frogs. 
     
     
     
    Williams's lively essays will fire up the curiosity of both residents and visitors alike, inspiring all to take a fresh look at the Emerald City.
