Some reading suggestions on potatoes

by RandomCaucasian

There aren't any books on the history of food in the FAQ. Anyone have some good reads on potatoes or any other important crop?

There was a whole blitz of these sorts of food books during the microhistory boom. Potatoes seem to have gotten their fair share! But the "Salt" and "Cod" books were the most popular ones off the top of my head I can think of and both are on our book list.
