"We never outgrow our craving - or our biological need - for salt." What compels us to consume the mineral treasure of the ocean? This book not only probes why sea salt relentlessly attracts us, it also shows us how this indispensable food, given half a chance, can maintain our mental & physical powers. From the very start, the author makes the pivotal distinction that separates true salt that supports our stamina & its modern debased, refined counterpart that endangers the human genus. Recent discoveries, confirmed by medical research & other biologists, point to the ravages caused by refining & the chemicals added to white table salt. Luckily, the book soon reveals sources of natural unrefined salts free of chemical additives. These exquisite & beneficial condiments make food more digestible, very definitely more tasty & even, in many cases, rebuild health. Natural salts are still harvested in a few secluded areas of the world, some under very modern purity standards. This ancient technology for harvesting true human quality salt is alive & well abroad. We still have untouched pristine coastlines. Doesn't it make sense to again produce our own? The right salt has always galvanized the spirit of men & women. "Salaries" maintained morale & courage in Caesar's Roman legions. At a time we seek the determination to regain our lead, this book shows the way.

New York Times Bestseller and winner of the Carnegie Medal! "Masterfully crafted"—The Wall Street Journal For readers of Between Shades of Gray and All the Light We Cannot See, Ruta Sepetys returns to WWII in this epic novel that shines a light on one of the war's most devastating—yet unknown—tragedies. World War II is drawing to a close in East Prussia and thousands of refugees are on a desperate trek toward freedom, many with something to hide. Among them are Joana, Emilia, and Florian, whose paths converge en route to the ship that promises salvation, the Wilhelm Gustloff. Forced by circumstance to unite, the three find their strength, courage, and trust in each other tested with each step closer to safety. Just when it seems freedom is within their grasp, tragedy strikes. Not country, nor culture, nor status matter as all ten thousand people—adults and children alike—aboard must fight for the same thing: survival. Told in alternating points of view and perfect for fans of Anthony Doerr's Pulitzer Prize-winning All the Light We Cannot See, Erik Larson's Dead Wake, and Elizabeth Wein's Printz Honor Book Code Name Verity, this masterful work of historical fiction is inspired by the real-life tragedy that was the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff—the greatest maritime disaster in history. As she did in Between Shades of Gray, Ruta Sepetys unearths a shockingly little-known casualty of a gruesome war, and proves that humanity and love can prevail, even in the darkest of hours.
