Canadians at Table: Food, Fellowship, and Folklore: A Culinary History of Canada

by Dorothy Duncan

Canadians at Table: Food, Fellowship, and Folklore: A Culinary History of Canada by Dorothy Duncan. Published by Dundurn Press in 2006, this hardcover first edition and first printing includes its dust jacket and is flat signed by Duncan in blue ink on the title page.

Duncan traces Canadian foodways from Indigenous knowledge and the experiences of fur traders and early settlers through immigration, changing transportation, markets, community organizations, celebrations, and twentieth-century life. More cultural history than conventional cookbook, it explores how food, hospitality, adaptation, and shared traditions helped shape communities across Canada. The book won Gold in the Canadian Food Culture category of the 2007 Canadian Culinary Book Awards.

Very Good overall. The dust jacket displays light edge and corner wear with a few small surface marks or scuffs. The photographed title and copyright pages and the representative illustrated interior spread appear clean and unmarked. The author signature is not personalized.

A collectible signed first printing for readers of Canadian history, culinary history, food culture, and folklore. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description. The book will be packaged carefully for shipment.
