5.0 out of 5 stars A most phenominal resource, and beautifully presented!, February 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Book of Tea (Hardcover)

Saw this book on the counter of a wonderful new tea shop in Boston, and stayed for two hours reading. The comprehensive coverage of tea, history, ritual, and legacy is just terrific. The text is only surpassed by the well chosen photos, paintings and images. Flammarion needs to bring back this extraordinary tribute to tea!

This review is from: The Book of Tea (Hardcover)

This isn't a review in the strict sense of the word, I would just like to say that if there is any way to nag Flammarion until they reprint it, I'm in it. I would LOVE to own it, now I have to check it out from the library...
