Tastes of Paradise: A Social History of Spices, Stimulants, and Intoxicants
Did you know that aristocrats used to pour their coffees on a little plate before drinking it? And that there were a long list of etiquette rules if you wanted to hand somebody a snuff-box?
Fun, well written, full of trivia. I read it for one of my University lessons, but I would read it again!
