Sugar
Author: Elizabeth Abbott
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1590207726
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 415
Book Description
This dramatic history of an ingredient that changed the world “offers up a number of fascinating stories” (The New York Times Book Review). Sugar explores the history behind the sweetness, revealing, among other stories, how powerful American interests deposed Queen Lili’uokalani of Hawaii; how Hitler tried to ensure a steady supply of beet sugar when enemies threatened to cut off Germany’s supply of overseas cane sugar; and how South Africa established a domestic ethanol industry in the wake of anti-apartheid sugar embargos. The book follows the role of sugar in world events and in individual lives up to the present day, showing how it made eating on the run socially acceptable and played an integral role in today’s fast food culture and obesity epidemic. Impressively researched and commandingly written, Sugar will forever change perceptions of this tempting treat. “A highly readable and comprehensive study of a remarkable product.” —The Independent “Epic in ambition and briskly written.” —The Wall Street Journal “Readers will never again be able to casually sweeten tea or eat sweets without considering the long and fascinating history of sugar.” —Booklist

Book Description
By all accounts, Detective Hampton Wales is a good cop but a complicated man, and when he dies under unusual circumstances, he finds that things aren’t any less complicated in death. The cases he couldn’t solve have come back to haunt him—literally and figuratively—and he faces a hellscape where people from his past hunt him in an eternal, torturous blood sport. Now, Hampton must struggle to survive long enough to solve one more murder if he ever wants to leave the cycle of violence—but the truth may be just as scary as anything he faces in the deadly Moratorium. Steeped in the tradition of body horror, REVOLVERS is an action-packed story of duty, love, betrayal, and revenge set against the background of an alternate vision of present-day Detroit.

Sugar and Slavery
Author: Richard B. Sheridan
Publisher: Canoe Press (IL)
ISBN: 9789768125132
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 572
Book Description
This book covers the changing preference of growing sugar rather than tobacco which had been the leading crop in the trans-Atlantic colonies. The Sugar Islands were Antigua, Barbados, St. Christopher, Dominica, and Cuba through Trinidad. Jamaica has been by far the major producer of sugar, but The Lesser Antilles had the advantage of a shorter sea trip to deliver produce and rum to the European Markets during the 18th and 19th Centuries.
