5.0 out of 5 stars A Trip!, September 26, 2007
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kretek: The Culture and Heritage of Indonesia's Clove Cigarettes (Hardcover)
This book is an incredible journey in picture and word thru Indonesian history, a wonderful "coffeetable" book, but also a fascinating perspective on third world, subsistance economy, growth and the lack thereof. The nostalgia of the early travels and trade route thru the Spice Islands wafts from every page and picture like sweet incense. There is nothing more satisfying, however politically incorrect, than a tasty Kretek coupled with sweet, black tea and heavy cream! The faces of these beautiful people, aged, yet energetic, with a determinism unseen outside of Kansas, their portraits alone are worth the price!

4.0 out of 5 stars Torture for some to read!, August 6, 2011
This review is from: Kretek: The Culture and Heritage of Indonesia's Clove Cigarettes (Hardcover)
This book is torture for anyone in the USA that desires to have these beloved clove cigarettes for their own pleasure. The question is, how can we get some? LOL
