Introduction to this online version:
Typed by hand by Richard and Margie Druery. Richard and Margie sent me the text file; I put that into html and added the pics that they scanned and sent me separately.
Originally 79 pages.
This text is also available as an e-text (no pics, no formatting, no full title information, like for instance, no date first printed...) here: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext02/tealv10.txt
This is a cool little book. It tells you a bit about days long gone by and a lot about the history of tea. And the poem at the end of chapter 12 is sure to make you smile. Enjoy!
- Henriette
