Cocoa and Chocolate
Their History from Plantation to Consumer
by
Arthur W. Knappand thought it may be of interest to those who have not read it before. Written in 1920, I would be interested to know how accurate this information is today. I live where there are not any books available to me on this subject. Thank you.

IMO all of Arthur Knapp's books on cacao/cocoa and chocolate are worth reading.

I have to agree with Alan here. I purchased a reprint of this book off of Amazon several years ago after finding it on Project Gutenberg. A really worthwhile addition to my reference library.

Knapp's book on fermentation is especially worthwhile...I've haven't seen it digitized (yet), but you can sometimes find copies on abebooks or alibris.
