If you follow the link from the acknowledgement at the bottom of the article you can buy it direct from the publishers. Otherwise Amazon is always a good bet, unless you have a big bookshop in Peterborough.

You may also want to try "Coffee - A Dark History" by Antony Wild. I bought a copy after Kingseven recommended it. Reads extremely well, although it comes over as a bit more serious (none of your dancing goats!).

Highly recommended. One day we'll carry a review of that too if K7 ever finishes it! :D

great, i will see if i can get my hands on them.

If i may be so bold to stick my foot and also make a recommendation. If anyone is interested in the coffee industry as a whole this is a fantastic book, there is no bullshit, and it everything in it is factual.
On the down side it is a long old slog, and is a bit of a text book, but well worth the effort.
the link below is something i found on the net about it.
