Where does sugar come from, and what is it really? George Rolph follows sugar cane from soil analysis and the insects that plague it through the manufacture of raw sugar and its journey to your table. A full account of a sweet global industry. For anyone who has spooned it into coffee without a thought, the whole story.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
