内容説明
What could be more British than a sweet cup of tea? James Walvin shows how the tastes of the British people were transformed by the fruits of distant empire and trade and links the global impact of Britain's drive for imperial pre-eminence to the rise of a new kind of domestic material consumption which helped to define the very nature of Britishness itself.
