4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting social history
I love Camembert so I thought this book would be an irresistable accompaniment to my cheese board. It is a thorough history of Camembert translated from a French original by an academic social historian. It is not a light read, but has a fascinating amount of detail about the cheese.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring
Incredibly dense and boring read. I generally am fascinated by food history reads, but this one was an epic miss. I could not even get past the first chapter. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone but perhaps to someone who has trouble falling asleep at night.
