Book Reviews of The Story of Salt

Book Review: The big book was great and so is this one!
Summary: 5 Stars

I ordered this book for my son, who loves science, because I loved the adult version so much.
It is a fantastic abbreviation. Mark Kurlansky was brilliant to make compelling but clear kids' versions of his already excellent publications!
