Summary: Well researched
Comment: This book is well researched and takes a careful look at the history of sugar throughout the ages. Unfortunately the writer gets sidetracked into detailing the history of slavery as well and, while admitting that the development and success of sugar plantations in the West Indies is inextricably linked with slavery, the book would have been better if it had been more tightly focussed on the primary topic.
The most interesting aspect of the book to me was that it was Australia-centric, rather than having a mind-set based on either American or English history. It's good to be reminded once in a while that there are other countries publishing books.
