by Phil Porter
Mackinac Island and fudge.
Both symbolize indulgence, fantasy and escape. But there's more

and sometimes bitter controversy behind this sweet souvenir.
In his hunger for truth and historical accuracy, Porter dug deep
into the kitchens and cupboards of the fudge culture. No appetite
for history, no taste for sweet truth will be satisfied without
reading Fudge: Mackinac's Sweet Souvenir.
