Book description
The original homage to the world's most extraordinary drink!
In 1922, William H. Ukers wrote the definitive work on coffee. As
the founder of The Tea and Coffee Trade Journal, an industry
magazine still active today, he spent seventeen years traveling the
world and uncovering everything there was to know about both the bean
and the beverage. From its historic roots and the drinking customs of
different countries to its effects on the mind and the preparation of
the perfect cup, this book captures all the rich and complex history
of coffee.
Filled to the brim with robust facts, aphorisms, and more, All
About Coffee culls the best of Ukers's research and observations
sip after sip, page after page.
William H. Ukers was the founder of The Tea and Coffee Trade
Journal. Though he died in 1945, his love of coffee lives on.
