humm, the idiomatic title makes me wondering if the author has written this book for money. if so, she might be another compassionate oversea 50 cent practitioner. anyway, good for her. [July 15, Washington Dulles International Airport, 2010]

评分非常好讀,很有意思,一點都不枯燥,對茶葉文化,那個時期的國際環境和中國的風土人情都有介紹。就好像是跟著Robert Fortune一起遊歷了一番

A dramatic historical narrative of the man who stole the secret of tea from China
In 1848, the British East India Company, having lost its monopoly on the tea trade, engaged Robert Fortune, a Scottish gardener, botanist, and plant hunter, to make a clandestine trip into the interior of China-territory forbidden to foreigners-to steal the closely guarded secrets of tea horticulture and manufacturing. For All the Tea in China is the remarkable account of Fortune's journeys into China-a thrilling narrative that combines history, geography, botany, natural science, and old-fashioned adventure.
Disguised in Mandarin robes, Fortune ventured deep into the country, confronting pirates, hostile climate, and his own untrustworthy men as he made his way to the epicenter of tea production, the remote Wu Yi Shan hills. One of the most daring acts of corporate espionage in history, Fortune's pursuit of China's ancient secret makes for a classic nineteenth-century adventure tale, one in which the fate of empires hinges on the feats of one extraordinary man.

评分三星给书,多加一星因为茶。 此书大概就讲清楚了一个问题,那就是维多利亚时期之后,英国人更喜欢红茶胜过绿茶的基本原因,还有流行于世界的斯里兰卡,大吉岭,阿萨姆红茶的来源,都是来自从中国盗取的茶叶树和种子。 本书想要刻画福钧这一因为英国殖民扩张产生的一代植物学家...
