The True History of Chocolate

Brilliantly researched; endlessly informative; witty and insightful.

A scholarly work by Sophie D. Coe (food historian and anthropologist) who unfortunately died young of cancer while working on this book.

One of the more entertaining parts of the book is to see who of the who's who of history were total chocolate-addicts.

Foodies and chocoholics rejoice!
