Scheduled for this 22 January 2009: Tea for the Raj: A History of
Tea in Assam and Sylhet
By Roy Moxham. He recently retired from the University of London.
His most well-known book is The Great Hedge of India, part-travelogue,
part-historical treatise on the author's quest to find a 1500-mile long
customs hedge built by the British in India to prevent smuggling of
salt and opium. His second book, Tea: Addiction, Exploitation and
Empire focuses on the effect of British tea addiction on British
policies
in Asia and Africa, and includes the author's own experience as a
tea plantation manager in Africa.
