Very interesting perceptive on how the world evolved around just a glass full of liquid.
A book that cannot be put down.

    I did enjoy this book - it was really interesting and filled with little jokes... but it just didn't quite do it for me... It might have been my attitude while I was reading it... who knows...

    An interesting lens to view history through. From beer to coco-cola, this book uses beverage as a structure to tell the story of world history.

    Read parts and enjoyed the Coca Cola and the wine chapters. Glad I read it, but not a book I couldn't wait to read.

    Not a book a couldn't put down, but an interesting read. A different perspective of history. Glad I read it.

    This book presents a really memorable way to categorise history and to demonstrate how trading route affected different cultures. I would love to teach AP world history using this title.

    Really interesting. The first five "glasses" were the most interesting; the Coca-Cola chapters were not as strong.

    An enjoyable jaunt through history in the context of beer, wine, spirits, tea, coffee and Coca-cola.
