About this product

Product Information

Figs, fresh and dried, have become the fruit of celebrations and festivities throughout the western world, and have been the typical fruit of Christmas since at least the time of Charles Dickens. In Figs: A Global History , David C. Sutton examines the festive and celebratory importance of figs in many countries, by placing this luscious and festive fruit in its historical context. Figs describes the odd biology of the fig, which is botanically not a fruit at all, as well as its Arabian origins and the possibility that Adam and Eve's 'forbidden fruit' was actually a fig. Featuring numerous recipes and fine illustrations, this is a lively, engaging account of a unique and delicious food.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
