The ultimate book for sandwich lovers (or even for those who are just curious): nearly 100 recipes spanning the ages, from the most famous to the lesser-known yet delicious sandwiches.

Ah, sandwiches. They're everywhere. But what is the story behind the club, the Cuban, or the hot brown? Through his various social networks, Barry Enderwick (@sandwichesofhistory) has explored everything about sandwiches for years. In Sandwiches of History: The Cookbook, for the first time, he has taken the material from many sandwich recipes and carefully recreated them, staying as true as possible to each original sandwich while providing much more guidance to help you master the making of each one.

From classic sandwiches like the Cucumber Tea Sandwich or The Sophisticated Club Sandwich to more original ones like the Hot Chicken Tuna Sandwich and the Mock Banana Sandwich, Barry offers not only recipes but also interesting information and fun facts related to them.
