Cod by Kurlansky, Mark
Cod: A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World
by Kurlansky, Mark
 
This is the biography of a single species of fish, but it may as well be a world history with this humble fish as its recurring main character. Cod, it turns out, is the reason Europeans set sail across the Atlantic, and it is also the only reason they could do so. As we make our way through the centuries of cod history, we also find a delicious legacy of recipes, and the tragic story of environmental failure, of depleted fishing stocks where once their numbers were legendary.
