Everything then known about coffee - botany, chemistry, commerce and the coffee houses - gathered by an American trade editor into the encyclopaedia that has anchored the subject since 1922.

All About Coffee was published in New York in 1922 and runs to some eight hundred pages. William Harrison Ukers (1873-1945) edited the Tea and Coffee Trade Journal for seventeen years, and travelled through the growing countries, and through the libraries of Europe, to put it together. He follows the plant from Abyssinia and Arabia into Venice, Paris, London, Vienna and New York; describes the coffee rooms of each city and the writers who sat in them; and then works through botany, microscopy, chemistry, cultivation, grading, roasting, blending, selling and brewing in turn.
