具体描述

A dramatic historical narrative of the man who stole the secret of tea from China

In 1848, the British East India Company, having lost its monopoly on the tea trade, engaged Robert Fortune, a Scottish gardener, botanist, and plant hunter, to make a clandestine trip into the interior of China-territory forbidden to foreigners-to steal the closely guarded secrets of tea horticulture and manufacturing. For All the Tea in China is the remarkable account of Fortune's journeys into China-a thrilling narrative that combines history, geography, botany, natural science, and old-fashioned adventure.

Disguised in Mandarin robes, Fortune ventured deep into the country, confronting pirates, hostile climate, and his own untrustworthy men as he made his way to the epicenter of tea production, the remote Wu Yi Shan hills. One of the most daring acts of corporate espionage in history, Fortune's pursuit of China's ancient secret makes for a classic nineteenth-century adventure tale, one in which the fate of empires hinges on the feats of one extraordinary man.

上班搭了同事很久的车，自然远离了地铁图书馆，所以节约上班时间的同时，少了很多读书时间。但愿家门口的地铁早日开通吧。这本书整体感觉很一般。不过越是这种观点不算鲜明的原汁原味作品，更容易仁者见仁。比如有人或许会惋惜茶叶的外流让中国失去了赚回白银的机会，有人觉得...

“Not for all the tea in China”是一句流行于维多利亚时代的俗语，当时英国盛行喝茶，而绝大部分的茶叶来自中国，所以如果把中国(China)所有的茶(tea)都给你，你都不愿意的话，就可以说明你多么的坚决了。美国女作家 Sarah Rose 的作品用 For All the Tea in China 作为书名...
