The True History of Chocolate by Michael D. Coe, Sophie D. Coe
5.0
A great read for true chocolate lovers. I learned so much that I hope to incorporate into the chocolate tasting classes that my husband and I like to host from time to time. It reads like a textbook so keep that in mind if you plan to read it.
Between pages 150ish and about 200, I didn't find much of the information to be helpful or interesting. Otherwise, my copy has tons of earmarks and notes throughout.
I appreciate that Coe gave his wife credit as the first listed author even though she passed away before actually writing the book. He kept his promise and made her dream come true by writing it himself after studying her notes which comprised thousand of pages. She really did her research!
