Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the first creatures to help humans attain the goal of having enough to eat was the pig, which provided not simply enough, but general abundance. Domesticated early and easily, herds grew at astonishing rates (only rabbits are more prolific). Then, as people spread around the globe, pigs and traditions went with them, with pigs making themselves at home wherever explorers or settlers carried them. Today, pork is the most commonly consumed meat in the world—and no one else in the world produces more pork than the American Midwest. Pigs and pork feature prominently in many cuisines and are restricted by others. In the U.S. during the early1900s, pork began to lose its preeminence to beef, but today, we are witnessing a resurgence of interest in pork, with talented chefs creating delicacies out of every part of the pig. Still, while people enjoy “pigging out,” few know much about hog history, and fewer still know of the creatures’ impact on the world, and specifically the Midwest. From brats in Wisconsin to tenderloin in Iowa, barbecue in Kansas City to porketta in the Iron Range to goetta in Cincinnati, the Midwest is almost defined by pork. Here, tracking the history of pig as pork, Cynthia Clampitt offers a fun, interesting, and tasty look at pigs as culture, calling, and cuisine.

Book excerpt: Food historian Cynthia Clampitt pens the epic story of what happened when Mesoamerican farmers bred a nondescript grass into a staff of life so prolific, so protean, that it represents nothing less than one of humankind's greatest achievements. Blending history with expert reportage, she traces the disparate threads that have woven corn into the fabric of our diet, politics, economy, science, and cuisine. At the same time she explores its future as a source of energy and the foundation of seemingly limitless green technologies. The result is a bourbon-to-biofuels portrait of the astonishing plant that sustains the world.

Book excerpt: From Charlotte's Web to Porky Pig and Babe, Americans betray a curiously deep regard for pigs. Hog Ties looks at this phenomenon, its relation to American culture, and the way in which themes of life and death are played out in the care, feeding, slaughter, and eating of pigs. Intermingling silly asides with serious subjects, existential concerns with environmental issues, the book considers the ways that pigs might help Americans address powerful human concerns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pigs are traditionally thought of as nothing more than meat at a barbeque, a dirty animal, with no other worth. This story will hopefully change your opinion of "the other white meat" and see that they are intelligent creatures and can react to what other animals usually can't, except dogs. Pigs really do care? John Jackson was born in Gary Indiana in 1946 and moved to Nunica, Michigan, in 1949 with parents to a farm. He loved farming and raising animals and fishing and hunting in the wooded area on the farm and upper Michigan. Jackson became interested in police work and worked in LaPorte County for two different towns and some extra work on Laporte County Sheriff's Department. He worked many years in safety and safety management in the trucking industry. His fondest memories and passions were raising animals and studying their thought processes. He have found in his research that different animals have so much more intelligence than we give them credit for, which is why Bacon the Pig story was born. His favorite truism is that if you received anything good from him, it came from God, so He gets all the glory.

For centuries pigs have been tarnished with the somewhat unfair reputation of being dirty and stupid. Contrary to this, pigs are now ranked alongside dogs and dolphins in their intelligence. This delightful collection of pig-tures shows pigs far removed from this harsh stereotype. These photographs capture the affectionate and adorable side of pigs and demonstrate how these artful and amusing creatures are capable of inspiring passion in otherwise sane people. So, ignore the pro-pig-anda and indulge in days of swine and roses, as the pigs hog the limelight with their pork-traits.

Book excerpt: In addition to being one of the United States' largest pork producers, North Carolina is home to a developing niche market of pasture-raised pork. In Real Pigs Brad Weiss traces the desire for "authentic" local foods in the Piedmont region of central North Carolina as he follows farmers, butchers, and chefs through the process of breeding, raising, butchering, selling, and preparing pigs raised on pasture for consumption. Drawing on his experience working on Piedmont pig farms and at farmers’ markets, Weiss explores the history, values, social relations, and practices that drive the pasture-raised pork market. He shows how pigs in the Piedmont become imbued with notions of authenticity, illuminating the ways the region's residents understand local notions of place and culture. Full of anecdotes and interviews with the market's primary figures, Real Pigs reminds us that what we eat and why have implications that resonate throughout the wider social, cultural, and historical world.
