Chocolate: A Global History (Edible)
**** The book "Chocolate," a part of the Edible Series, offers a captivating introduction to the multifaceted history of chocolate, traversing its evolution from a bitter drink in the New World to the sweet treats we know today. Readers appreciate how the authors weave together historical context with social implications, highlighting the darker aspects of chocolate’s past, including the roles of colonization and slavery in the cocoa trade.
