### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Decent book about coffee, but there is a better one available for free!
  

*by G***8 on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2014*

If you are a new coffee fanatic, and are in to roasting your own coffee and wanting to learn all you can about coffee, go ahead and purchase this book, Pendergrast does a pretty good job of covering the coffee world from harvest to cup, and it is in an easy to read format. But I must say, I felt it was basically a "Cliff Note" of the all encompassing "Coffee Bible" that William H. Uker wrote almost a hundred years ago. Ukers book is titled "All About Coffee", and is the acknowledged complete work of every aspect of the coffee world. You can sometimes find the out of print book on Ebay, but it is usually over $150 for a worn out copy! I found that you can go to "Project Gutenberg" on the web and read the entire book, with all the full color hand drawn pictures, absolutely free of charge! Do it! You won't regret it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Thorough, readable, yet scholarly & encyclopedic.
  

*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2018*

I bought this book for my own information -- I've been a black coffee drinker for c. 60 years, and a real coffee aficionado for the past 15 years or so. The book's size and amount of information are almost overwhelming, and yet the author's clear, reader-friendly, nearly conversational writing style make it as much a "page-turner" as a good mystery novel. He covers the history, geography, economics, and complex sociology & politics of all aspects of this world-wide industry so completely as to make this work a textbook, nay, a one-volume college course. From Asia, Africa, and the Americas, to Starbuck's, Folgers, Maxwell House and everything in the U.S., it's all here. HIGHLY recommended!!

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    If You Love Coffee
  

*by E***I on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2020*

If you love coffee, this book may hold your attention.  But, a more casual reader may find the book plods rather slowly, particularly the second half.  The first half on coffee varieties and history was interesting.  The second half of the book about the personalities and rise of craft coffee made for slow reading.  Having read the book, my recommendation for coffee lovers is: read the first half and then quit.
