Omschrijving

Kathryn Cornell Dolan examines the role cattle played in narratives throughout the nineteenth century to show how the struggles within U.S. food culture mapped onto society’s larger struggles with colonization, environmentalism, U.S. identity, ethnicity, and industrialization.
 

"Dolan's book . . . should become a foundational resource for future scholarship on the subject as it shines a light on the too-hungry forces of such an industry by the people who witnessed it and wrote back in complicated celebration and protest."—Tom Hertweck, Western American Literature

"If you are interested . . . in seeing how livestock (particularly, cattle) have played into the larger narrative of Manifest Destiny and the homogenization of American cuisine—and, ultimately, American culture—then this book has many useful insights."—Dan Holtz, Nebraska History

"A well-researched book."—Randi Samuelson-Brown, Denver Westerners RoundUp

“A refreshing and unique take on not only what cattle meant to settlers but also how cattle were used as instruments for developing notions of race and American identity. In an Anthony Bourdain–like journey across the country, this book gives you a sense of regional food history in America. You can really taste the food by the end. It is important for scholarship and historical understanding of the United States.”—Karen Piper, author of The Price of Thirst: Global Water Inequality and the Coming Chaos

“A critical contribution to its field, both in its individual arguments about literature and food and also in its modeling of a comparative methodology attuned to region, indigeneity, and global migration.”—Catherine Keyser, author of Artificial Color: Modern Food and Racial Fictions

Kathryn Cornell Dolan is an associate professor of English and technical communication at Missouri University of Science and Technology. She is the author of Beyond the Fruited Plain: Food and Agriculture in U.S. Literature, 1850–1905 (Nebraska, 2014).
