Sweets: A History Of Candy
There’s a history of just about everything, and now we have a history of the sweetest thing—CANDY! Author Tim Richardson has been a connoisseur of sweets since his grandfather fed him Turkish delight as a small boy, starting a life-long love of candy. Richardson made it his mission to find out everything he could about sweets for his new book Sweets: A History of Candy. It was a tough job, but somebody had to do it. Tim Richardson joins host Larry Mantle to talk all about candy.
