Tea

Tea-drinking runs like a vein through the cultures of East and West, the focus of pleasure and leisure, and the inspiration for a variety of customs and ceremonies of its own. This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of tea around the world and celebrates its contribution, past and present, to civilized existence. There are as many ways of growing and preparing tea as there are ways of serving and enjoying it, and this delightful history explores them all.
