The Austin Coffee Festival sounds like a lot of fun. I've never looked into the history of coffee. Are there any non-fiction books you can recommend on the subject?
For the history of salt I highly recommend "Salt" by Mark Kurlansky.
One of the best books I've ever read is "The Thief at the End of the World" by Joe Jackson. It is about an Englishman who goes to the Amazon and ends up stealing rubber tree seeds. He brought them back to England and the British Empire grew rubber in Indonesia. They made billions of pounds.
I am unfortunately not much of a book reader. However, I love listening to those who roast and pick their brains on knowledge. When I post my next blog about the festival, some of them may have great resources!
I read about 80 substacks and I'm too cheap to subscribe to them all. I do hit the buy me a coffee button now and then when I see a great post. That seems on theme for you.
He has the coffee button and I've sent him a few...
Coffee button is a good idea! This is to share what I found, but I am okay if people don’t do a paid subscription :) My written content will still always be free!
Happy Birthday!!!
