Salt: A World History [Kindle Edition] By: Mark Kurlansky

This book was a challenging and difficult read. It took me several weeks to read because the topic was so thoroughly and completely examined. This book really does review the entire history of the world and how it relates to Salt, the Salt mines,Slavery, Human abuses, and the development and progress of civilization. I'm glad that I read the book because it is so very informative, but I often put it down for a week or so at a time so that I could indulge myself in lighter reading. I recommend this history book, with a note that I would have some lighter reading available for when this one gets overwhelming.
