We haven't done a weekend book giveaway in AHT-Serious Eats land in a while. And as I was looking up some historical burger info on Friday, I realized that we have a nice little stack of Josh Ozerksy's recent book, The Hamburger: A History.

As I said in an earlier review of Ozersky's book, "In five easy chapters, Ozersky handily deals with the contentious origins of the burger—which world culture spawned it and who invented the version we know today?—and then takes the reader on a fast-paced journey from the ramshackle hamburger stands of the early 1900s to White Castle (the original king of fast food) to the '50s and '60s, which see the rise and consolidation of the burger giants we know all too well today."

I see this giveaway as a nice little bookend (no pun intended) to the summer grilling/burger season, as we gave away a burger book just as summer began.

As in that earlier contest (for Hamburger America), I'm going to make you work for it. To win The Hamburger, all you have to do is COMPOSE A HAMBURGER ACROSTIC POEM in the comments here. The best five acrostic poems, as determined by the AHT staff, win.

For those of you who failed English, an acrostic poem looks like this:

Hearty
Awesome
Meaty
Buns
Undeniably juicy
Rare to medium-rare
Good to the last bite
Eat one every day
Readers of AHT love them!

My acrostic pretty much blows, but it gives you an example. You needn't use the word hamburger; feel free to use any word for your acrostic that evokes hamburgerness. Go!

Comments will close at 12 p.m. ET on Tuesday, September 2. One entry per person. I am recusing myself from judging; the other folks at AHT-Serious Eats will determine winners. The standard Serious Eats contest rules apply.
