{"product_id":"2940149510498","title":"All About Coffee","description":"\u003cbr\u003eSeventeen years ago the author of this work made his first trip abroad\u003cbr\u003eto gather material for a book on coffee. Subsequently he spent a year in\u003cbr\u003etravel among the coffee-producing countries. After the initial surveys,\u003cbr\u003ecorrespondents were appointed to make researches in the principal\u003cbr\u003eEuropean libraries and museums; and this phase of the work continued\u003cbr\u003euntil April, 1922. Simultaneous researches were conducted in American\u003cbr\u003elibraries and historical museums up to the time of the return of the\u003cbr\u003efinal proofs to the printer in June, 1922.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTen years ago the sorting and classification of the material was begun.\u003cbr\u003eThe actual writing of the manuscript has extended over four years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmong the unique features of the book are the Coffee Thesaurus; the\u003cbr\u003eCoffee Chronology, containing 492 dates of historical importance; the\u003cbr\u003eComplete Reference Table of the Principal Kinds of Coffee Grown in the\u003cbr\u003eWorld; and the Coffee Bibliography, containing 1,380 references.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe most authoritative works on this subject have been Robinson's _The\u003cbr\u003eEarly History of Coffee Houses in England_, published in London in 1893;\u003cbr\u003eand Jardin's _Le Café_, published in Paris in 1895. The author wishes to\u003cbr\u003eacknowledge his indebtedness to both for inspiration and guidance. Other\u003cbr\u003eworks, Arabian, French, English, German, and Italian, dealing with\u003cbr\u003eparticular phases of the subject, have been laid under contribution; and\u003cbr\u003ewhere this has been done, credit is given by footnote reference. In all\u003cbr\u003ecases where it has been possible to do so, however, statements of\u003cbr\u003ehistorical facts have been verified by independent research. Not a few\u003cbr\u003eitems have required months of tracing to confirm or to disprove.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Bronson Tweed Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47149118161136,"sku":"2940149510498","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149510498_p0.jpg?v=1763718206","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149510498","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
