Customer Reviews

Excellent History of Tea in Britain and History of Britain as well

I was absolutely thrilled with this book. I had been asked to give a lecture for our Tea Tasting group. I researched some topics and decided to do the History of Tea in Britain. What an wonderful resource book this turned out to be. Jane Pettigrew has done extensive research. It brings out all the history you learned in high school as well but now are more inclined to enjoy. The pictures and notes are great. There is so much information that I had to condense what I would say. But I thoroughly enjoyed reading everything.
