"Beans is a concise and colorful introduction to valuable foods that are too often taken for granted."
OxVeg News
"Morris has condensed an incredible amount of bean information and history into one book. I want to both read several hundred more pages and get a pot simmering."
Carey Polis, digital director, Bon Appétit
"Beans is the history you never knew you needed. It’s thorough, a little gossipy, and a lot of fun. Many people have taken beans for granted but Morris gives them a deservedly royal treatment, and I imagine it would be hard not to find a passion for your legumes after reading this loving tribute."
Steve Sando, founder of Rancho Gordo and coauthor of "Heirloom Beans"
