Edible Secrets: A Food Tour of Classified U.S. History

Bag om Edible Secrets: A Food Tour of Classified U.S. History

Illustrated throughout by New York Times bestselling author Nate Powell, these documents offer a filter into the deep depths of classified documents and government misdeeds. What do top-secret CIA assassination plots, Black Panther arrests, and Reaganomics have in common? Food, of course! Michael Hoerger and Mia Partlow collect, contextualize and graphically narrate declassified government documents with food as a theme! Over 500,000 declassified memos, debriefings and transcripts were combed to uncover some of the most important and iconic people and narratives from US history. Providing a voyeuristic insight into the US government, these documents are like reality TV for politicos and foodies: Assassinations by milkshake, subliminal popcorn cravings, Reagan's love of hydroponics, and what could be Fred Hampton's most radical action--giving ice cream to small children.
