Editorial Review:
With beautiful writings, exquisite art and photography, and traditional recipes, this elegant volume pays tribute to the joys of teatime. "Attend" the Mad Hatter's tea party through excerpts from Alice in Wonderland. Lose yourself in the tea-inspired thoughts of by M.F.L. Fisher, Marcel Proust, and Henry James. Try the 65 recipes for making classic sweets and savories (like Cucumber Sandwiches and Lemon Curd Hearts). And, of course you'll learn about the wonderful variety of teas and how to serve the perfect pot.
