Popcorn was not known to the world until the discovery of the Americas. Nowhere in history can one suggest that corn and popped corn were ever planted by or known to any people of the globe before America was discovered. Popcorn enjoys the privilege of being the subject of more books and literature than any other single snack, anywhere. Almost all these books have been authored and published in the USA. The books range over recipes, stories, novels, as well as business, sociological, psychological, and technical issues. There is no place or country in the world that has developed and made so much and many memorabilia of popcorn as America and the Americans. Memorabilia has been associated with so many events, functions, and personalities. A short list includes movies, festivals, birthrates, celebrations, parks, restaurants, buildings, children games, toys, books and more. Popcorn is one of the healthiest snacks available and is, by far, the most popular snack in the USA. It is appropriate in almost all social settings and available during most sports events. The United States is credited for the vast majority of agronomic research conducted to develop new breeds, traits, and types of popcorn. The same can be said about popcorn processing, development and packaging. The United States of America is credited for being the country that has been the biggest grower, developer, processor, promoter, consumer, and exporter of popcorn. Popcorn is the American Snack.

"You're telling me that Ralph Kendrick, the bogeyman of my worst nightmares has escaped from jail?" Eyes wide and unbelieving, Fiona Morgan asked the detective standing at her front door. She reached for the door frame to steady her wobbly legs. When she was ten years old, Fiona Morgan and two Girl Scout friends stumbled across Ralph Kendrick murdering a young woman at a Minneapolis park. At his trial when he was convicted of Rose Wilson's murder, Kendrick threatened to kill all three young girls if he ever got out. Now, twenty years later, Fiona discovers that Kendrick has indeed escaped from prison, and he may have wealthy connections. She hires a bodyguard, Ted Collier, veteran police officer to protect her. Matters get worse for Fiona when she finds out that Kendrick knows that she is an identical triplet. He has told other inmates he doesn't know which one testified. So he'll eliminate all of them. This means five women are at risk. Two days later, Tory Girard, one of Fiona's Girl Scout friends, is found dead in Minneapolis. Tension builds as Fiona and Ted try to stay safe and track Kendrick down before he can kill or hire someone to kill again.

This three-volume encyclopedia on the history of American food and beverages serves as an ideal companion resource for social studies and American history courses, covering topics ranging from early American Indian foods to mandatory nutrition information at fast food restaurants. The expression "you are what you eat" certainly applies to Americans, not just in terms of our physical health, but also in the myriad ways that our taste preferences, eating habits, and food culture are intrinsically tied to our society and history. This standout reference work comprises two volumes containing more than 600 alphabetically arranged historical entries on American foods and beverages, as well as dozens of historical recipes for traditional American foods; and a third volume of more than 120 primary source documents. Never before has there been a reference work that coalesces this diverse range of information into a single set. The entries in this set provide information that will transform any American history research project into an engaging learning experience. Examples include explanations of how tuna fish became a staple food product for Americans, how the canning industry emerged from the Civil War, the difference between Americans and people of other countries in terms of what percentage of their income is spent on food and beverages, and how taxation on beverages like tea, rum, and whisky set off important political rebellions in U.S. history.
