Publisher's Synopsis
Protein and calories ignited the Second World War! The first book from the perspective of the empire's food supply and demand, colonization, and battlefield diets, comprehensively explores the causes and consequences of the Second World War. Li Qi & Colin Han has another blockbuster work after Taste of Empire. Every once in a while, there is a book that subverts our views on the seemingly repetitive and well-known issues, and Li Qi & Colin Han's book is an example, which brilliantly describes the role of food (and its shortage) during World War II. Now, we can no longer think about war from the old perspective.
