Very intelligent in depth history on the developing taste of Curry, and how original Indian regional foods were impacted by successive people's coming to India due to trading in spices, missionaries, military controls etc. There is an incredible wealth of description into insights of the gluttony and lifestyles of wealthy traders and high up military/government personnel and even foreign nobility that causes me to gasp in shock, and I guess as they took advantage of the copious supplies, inexpensive produce and quality textiles, as well as cheap labour gleaned employing local residents, wherever they settled. Quite an eye opener and a very difficult to put down book, which I have not as yet finished reading. Thoroughly recommend it.
