Good Coffee Books - The Devil’s Cup
| This coffee book is the way to go for a fun travel filled look at the history of coffee. | |
Stewart Lee Allen’s coffee book is about his travels around the world in search of the history of coffee. Much of his info on the history of coffee in Europe is a recitation of more staid histories of coffee. Allen spends most of his travels looking for either the best or worst cup of coffee.
This coffee book is a rather crazy, but interesting, travelogue that loosely related to the spread of coffee from Africa to the rest of the world. It will keep you entertained and is well worth reading. Even though it is a true history on coffee origins the book leans more toward his fun times Allen had on his journey.
I would give it 4 out of 5 stars since I liked the adventures as much as the coffee facts.
