Neviere e nevaioli
The storage and sale of snow in central-western Sicily (1500-1900)
A scrupulous historical volume, but also an absorbing tale dedicated to a world full of charm which marked the life of whole mountain communities. The author deals with the study of ice-houses and the snow storage and transport techniques enabling the sale of snow in big towns, places surprisingly far from the departure point. From its use in the production of ice-cream and sorbets, to its use in the cooling boxes and in the therapeutic field.- Author/s: Luigi Romana
