 A Thirst for Empire: How Tea Shaped the Modern World by Erika RappaportMy rating: 4 of 5 stars This was a very refreshing read for me–lots of great stuff on the history of beverages, the history of shopping, the history of British empire. Like an academic review on a lot of stuff I did not know. Each chapter feel like it was written by a different grad student with a real passion for their assigned topic. And overall the book was very solid, easy to read, informative, and enjoyable. Recommended. View all my reviews |
