All About Coffee
In 'All About Coffee,' William H. Ukers offers an exhaustive compendium on the cultural and historical journey of coffee. The work is a meticulous chronicle that traces the beverage from ancient Ethiopian legends to its global proliferation, comprising elements of anthropology, economics, chemistry, and even etiquette. Ukers' prose marries the precision of a scholar with the verve of a connoisseur, situating 'All About Coffee' in a liminal space between an academic treatise and a passionate homage. The publication under DigiCat Publishing carries with it a renewed accessibility, catering to the sensibilities of modern readers while preserving the integrity of its original scholarly context. ...

The Devil's Cup
Can you handle mornings without a brew? No? Multiply that. Imagine an entire population under a cloud of lethargy, unable to kick start their days. Now introduce coffee. Bingo. The brain moves into over-drive and it's time for empire building.So goes Stewart Lee Allen's crazy theory. Only thing is, after retracing coffee's journey to world domination - by train, rickshaw, cargo freighter and donkey - he has plenty of evidence to back it up.Stewart Lee Allen has filtered out the richest beans from coffee's hot and frothy history . . . serving up a steamy, high-energy brew that will stimulate you more than a triple-strength espresso.
