Product Description
by Gianfranco Todisco (Foreword by), Ann Harman (Introduction by), Maria Rosaria Belgiorno (Author)
The world of distillation has many fathers and mothers and an abundant progeny. The world of Medicine, Perfumery, Alchemy, and Spirits have claimed a leading role. Understanding anything about it becomes a basic need, and a decisive starting point. It is a good idea to begin with the facts before venturing in the farrago of hypotheses and interpretations. In a world divided and diversified as that of distilling the facts can come only from archaeology. Maria Rosaria Belgiorno is the archaeologist we owe the discovery and reconstruction of a device dated to 1850 BC. She is the person who takes the reader on this long path... in a space of time as far as current. Gianfranco Todisco
