A very interesting read. I had no idea that, in the desperation to cut out the middleman, the British tried a northern route to get to Asia. It is interesting to think, when in the grocery store with the ease of purchasing ANY spice, the lengths people went to to obtain them, and the profit associated with them.

A curious account of the politics, business and the open water adventures of the spice trade. Good stuff. Well written. Never boring.

Tried to get the nutmeg stains off of the front cover, but no luck.
