This book is written by two British tea fanatics who cannot possibly live without tea. It gives lots of mundane details about tea, biscuits and cakes, including their history, their structures and the "connoisseur" way to enjoy them, along with many cynical and funny comments. Some of the jokes about biscuits are too British and I don't really understand them, but overall I appreciate the writers' sense of humour and and their passion in tea. If you enjoy tea and biscuits, or if you are a Briton, you will love this book!
