In 1843, fourteen-year-old Hanson Gregory left his family home in Rockport, Maine, and set sail as a cabin boy on the schooner Achorn, looking for high-stakes adventure on the high seas. Little did he know that a boatload of hungry sailors, coupled with his knack for creative problem-solving, would yield one of the world’s most prized and beloved pastries.  
      Lively and inventive cut-paper illustrations add a taste of whimsy to this sweet, fact-filled story that includes an extensive bibliography, author's note, and timeline.

This is a good book that describes the journey of a popular dish that we all know- Doughnuts. This is a nice book because you will surely be amazed by the effort put in this journey and the way it was made. It was a good book that gives info. of the doughnut and describes its journey.

I don't usually like history-type books, but this one seemed fun. The bonus? It was about doughnuts, one of my favorite topics. It was fun to learn about the history of doughnuts. It also taught me that people can play different roles in history.
