LONGLISTED FOR THE SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE, A CHARMINGLY PERSONAL HISTORY OF HABSBURG EUROPE BY THE AUTHOR OF GERMANIA

From the end of the Middle Ages to the First World War, Europe was dominated by one family: the Habsburgs. Their unprecedented rule is the focus of Simon Winder's vivid third book, Danubia.

Winder's approach is friendly, witty, personal; this is a narrative that, while erudite and well researched, prefers to be discursive and anecdotal. In his survey of the centuries of often incompetent Habsburg rule which have continued to shape the fate of Central Europe, Winder does not shy away from the horrors, railing against the effects of nationalism, recounting the violence that was often part of life. But this is a history dominated above all by Winder's energy and curiosity. Eminently readable and thrillingly informative, Danubia is a treat that readers will be eager to dip into.

Delicious, nice quality, small ground granule style dried garlic. Excellent product and price.
Size: 24 ounce (Pack of 1)
I see a lot of discussion over this product. Many loving it and many saying it is not granulated, but in the powder form. It IS indeed labelled Garlic Powder, but this is actually the granulated type, just very small granules. This is important because I like the granulated; I find the true powder form to be hard to work with and not as good tasting. This Amazon Grocery Garlic Powder is excellent, very fine quality, dried garlic into tiny granules. I'm very happy with this product.

Reasonably priced garlic powder with no anti caking ingredients.
Size: 3.9 ounce (Pack of 1)
I like this garlic powder it is just like similar ones I purchased in the past. It has no additive so you get pure garlic powder there is no anti- caking agent. It is not like the store bought granulated garlic powder with anti-caking agents When you pour it out lightly tap it because it could come out fairly fast compared to the granulated garlic type. Whenever I get a chance I order a new one because this is flavorful. Just when I add it to Chicken fried I added on the top after cooking that and covering you don't want to burn it.

Amazon Grocery, Garlic Powder, 3.9 Oz. Nice Flavor, Free-Flowing. Tastes Great. A Good Value, too
Size: 3.9 ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 3.9 ounce (Pack of 1)
Amazon Grocery Garlic Powder, Amazon Grocery I purchased this Amazon Grocery Garlic Powder as a pantry staple for everyday cooking, and it has quickly become one of the seasonings I reach for most often. The garlic flavor is fresh, aromatic, and strong enough to add noticeable taste to meats, vegetables, soups, sauces, and marinades without needing to use a large amount. I appreciate that the ingredient list is simple and contains only garlic, which is exactly what I look for in a basic seasoning. The 3.9-ounce container is a practical size for regular household use. It stores easily in my spice cabinet and has been convenient to grab while cooking. It's enough to have on hand without going stale or clumping. I found the powder easy to blend into recipes, and it disperses well whether I am seasoning food before cooking or adding it during preparation. The flavor is consistent from use to use, which helps when following recipes. I also like the value this product offers. The price is reasonable compared to many similar garlic powders, yet the quality has been just as good as more expensive options I have tried. The garlic aroma is noticeable as soon as the container is opened, giving me confidence that the product is fresh. Versatile in that it can be used in many recipes calling for fresh garlic. Clean, natural appearance that looks like small garlic granules. One thing I noticed is that the shaker openings can dispense the powder fairly quickly, so I need to be careful when seasoning directly from the container. Aside from that minor issue, I have been very pleased with the flavor, convenience, and affordability. It has worked well in nearly every savory dish I have prepared. **Pros:** ✅ Pure garlic ingredient with no unnecessary additives ✅ Fresh, strong garlic flavor and aroma ✅ Good value for the price ✅ Convenient container size for everyday cooking ✅ Versatile for a wide variety of recipes ✅ Light yellow color and fine, consistent granule size and texture **Cons:** ❌ Shaker holes may dispense more powder than expected if poured too quickly ❌ Fine texture may not suit those who prefer coarser granulated garlic
