Take Your Tea with This Entertaining Guide

This book is pure pleasure from beginning to end. Like a good novel you just don't want to put it down. Starting with the history of tea we embark on a soothing international journey of tea traditions. The authors have filled this book with descriptive commentaries and color photographs depicting the countries, the people and appropriate table settings. Recipes reflect the characteristics of each region. I have especially enjoyed using the "Guide to Buying Tea" with its serving suggestions. This book is a lovely and must have addition to any tea library!
