The Taste of War is a cautionary example of the malady.

Review of "The Taste of War: World War II and The Battle For Food" by Lizzie Collingham Posted on 01/20/ by rhapsodyinbooks This is a fascinating book, but I'm not sure it is a book written for popular consumption (so to speak) in the United States.

Two other aspects of food and war receive a thorough treatment by Collingham. One is the logistics of war itself; i.e., the need to keep soldiers who are on the move fed and watered, and with enough vitamins to ward off deficiencies common in wartime.
