The Coffee-house by Markman Ellis
When the first coffee-house opened in London in 1652, customers were bewildered by this strange new drink from Turkey - hot, bitter and black as soot. But those who tried coffee were soon won over. More coffee-houses were opened across London and then in America and Europe. For a hundred years the coffee-house occupied the centre of urban life, creating a distinctive social culture by treating all customers as equals. Gossip, dissent and sedition were exchanged and debated around their egalitarian tables. Merchants held auctions, writers conducted discussions, scientists demonstrated experiments, philantropists deliberated reforms. This fascinating book traces the history of coffee and describes how it came to rewrite metropolitan life.
