A lively, illustrated history of the ubiquitous beverage takes readers from the jungles of Southeast Asia through the decadent Tang and Song dynasties to explore tea's role in art, religion, trade, and other arenas, in an upbeat account that also covers a range of lesser-known facts, from Morocco's adoption of green tea as a national beverage and the source of the billabong in "Waltzing Matilda."
