Description
The Biography of Bananas reveals the murky past and uncertain future of the tasty banana. Almost unknown in North America before the 1870s, bananas quickly became a popular fruit with a rough history. Colorful photographs and maps help explain who grows your bananas, how they are harvested, and why the banana may soon become extinct.
