Fascinating read, had no idea how complicated the history and "life" of apples was. I was totally absorbed reading it. Blew Johnny Appleseed out of the water!

Satisfying and delicious
I took tremendous delight in exploring the history and lore of something that a lot of us take for granted, apples.
Cover to cover, Mr Browning divulges the lineage, history, and possibly the future of a fruit that feeds millions, and has cost some their lives.
This is an engaging, entertaining, and discretely educating volume that was difficult to put down, and I didn't have to wash my hands.
