The journey of the cacao bean, from which we make chocolate, is full of incidence.
It came from South America, the ancient Maya of Mesoamerica in the Aztec empire, and travelled on to Spain, and then to the Caribbean, Martinique, Saint Lucia, and the Dominican Republic. Chocolate became a valuable commodity, earning status through the place of the chocolate house in nineteenth-century European politics. A book to enchant the historian, and, with a full complement of chocolate recipes, to please the cook.
Samuel Mutter has a First Class degree in Geography and a Masters in Politics and International Relations.

Petworth House has been the home of the Leconfield family since it was granted to them by Queen Adeliza, the second wife of Henry I, in 1150. The kitchens dealt with a myriad of natural ingredients from eels and oysters to black pudding and quince jellies. The recipes include Oeufs Soubise made with onion and cream, Petworth Venison Pie, Mint Ice, Friar's Omelette, an apple pudding which in fact has no eggs, and delicious Carrolines au Parmesan, savory cheese-filled éclairs.
Peter Brears is former director of the Leeds City Museums and one of England's foremost authorities on domestic artifacts, historical kitchens, and cooking technology.
