Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science

166 pp. | Clarion | November, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-618-57492-6 $20.00
(1) YA Aronson and Budhos explore the sugar industry's origins, tracing, among other elements, the crop’s growth in popularity and the transatlantic slave trade, then providing broader twentieth-century context. This is fine historical writing: an epic story on a broad canvas that never loses sight of individual moments of human drama; the volume also boasts a thoughtful marriage of words, pictures, and design. Timeline. Bib., ind.
