Brent is often asked by his KZST listeners where to find the best restaurant, or about a special place to take out-of-town guests. The guide books he has seen are business motivated or ego motivated. Brent decided that what was needed was a pamphlet that listed the best things about Sonoma County. He wanted to know what the local people did and where it would be more interesting to go. So he asked his listeners to call into the studio at KZST and (on the air) tell Brent about their favorite Sonoma County experiences. The ideas for a small pamphlet grew into enough things to fill a big pamplet and still more ideas came pouring in. Brent knew that he was going to have to put everything together in a book, and so the work began.

Cuisine and Culture presents a multicultural and multiethnic approach that draws connections between major historical events and how and why these events affected and defined the culinary traditions of different societies. Witty and engaging, Civitello shows how history has shaped our diet--and how food has affected history. Prehistoric societies are explored all the way to present day issues such as genetically modified foods and the rise of celebrity chefs. Civitello's humorous tone and deep knowledge are the perfect antidote to the usual scholarly and academic treatment of this universally important subject.

Charles Albert Murdock (1841-1928) left Massachusetts for California in 1855 with his mother, sister and brother. For many years he was editor of the Pacific Unitarian Magazine and one of the state's most distinguished printers. A backward glance at eighty (1921) begins with Murdock's memories of his trip west and reunion with his father, who had settled in Arcata on the Humboldt River. Murdock recalls life in the town and recounts stories of his father's early years on the Humboldt, the evolution of the region's Republican Party, acquaintance with Bret Harte, the printing business in San Francisco, 1867-1910, and the San Francisco Board of Education.
