I had a false start this week and my first abandoned book of 2012: Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky. Yaaaaaaaaaaawn. If you want pickle and ham recipes from every major recorded civilization, this is the book for you.
But I am not a lover of pickles or ham. After abandoning Salt, I started reading Bill Bryson's I'm a Stranger Here Myself.
It was a little outdated (published in 1999), but parts were hilarious. Definitely better than the pickle recipes.
