🏛 University of Georgia Press 📅 2008 📔 Paperback ISBN: 9780820331096

📝 Description: Savage Barbecue: Race, Culture, and the Invention of America's First Food

Warnes traces what he calls America's first food through early transatlantic literature and culture. Building on the work of scholar Eric Hobsbawm, Warnes argues that barbecue is an invented tradition, much like Thanksgiving--one long associated with frontier mythologies of ruggedness and relaxation.
