Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a cold evening in December 1773, a group of men climbed aboard three ships docked in Boston Harbor. Armed with hatchets, the men began breaking into the ships’ valuable cargo—342 crates of tea. They dumped the tea into the black water of the harbor and then marched back home through the city streets. This “Boston Tea Party” was a bold act of protest by American colonists against British rule. It pushed the colonies and Great Britain a step closer to war. But who were these protestors? Why would they risk angering the powerful British government? And how did the British respond? Discover the facts about the Boston Tea Party and the colonists’ struggle for independent rule.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this creative, ethnographic, and historical critique of labor practices on an Indian plantation, Piya Chatterjee provides a sophisticated examination of the production, consumption, and circulation of tea. A Time for Tea reveals how the female tea-pluckers seen in advertisements—picturesque women in mist-shrouded fields—came to symbolize the heart of colonialism in India. Chatterjee exposes how this image has distracted from terrible working conditions, low wages, and coercive labor practices enforced by the patronage system. Allowing personal, scholarly, and artistic voices to speak in turn and in tandem, Chatterjee discusses the fetishization of women who labor under colonial, postcolonial, and now neofeudal conditions. In telling the overarching story of commodity and empire, A Time for Tea demonstrates that at the heart of these narratives of travel, conquest, and settlement are compelling stories of women workers. While exploring the global and political dimensions of local practices of gendered labor, Chatterjee also reflects on the privileges and paradoxes of her own “decolonization” as a Third World feminist anthropologist. The book concludes with an extended reflection on the cultures of hierarchy, power, and difference in the plantation’s villages. It explores the overlapping processes by which gender, caste, and ethnicity constitute the interlocked patronage system of villages and their fields of labor. The tropes of coercion, consent, and resistance are threaded through the discussion. A Time for Tea will appeal to anthropologists and historians, South Asianists, and those interested in colonialism, postcolonialism, labor studies, and comparative or international feminism. Designated a John Hope Franklin Center book by the John Hope Franklin Seminar Group on Race, Religion, and Globalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tea in 18th Century America gives the reader insight into the importance of tea in the Colonial and the early Federal era. The book begins with an introduction to the history of tea and its journey to the shores of America. Then, while giving credit to the research done by Rodris Roth in the 1960s, additional extensive research utilizing period newspapers, historic texts, period portraits and prints is added that immerses the reader into the Colonial American world. Included within are chapters on when colonists drank tea and instructions on how to understand 18th century recipes, as well as how to identify foods that are perfect to prepare and then eat when having your own tea party. From dessert collations and preparation notes for each recipe to descriptions of how food was given color and even how medicinal teas were used to cure ills, this book covers a wide variety of interesting topics. A bonus chapter focuses on the life of Charles Carroll the Barrister's wife, Margaret Tilghman Carroll, during her time at Mount Clare in Baltimore, Maryland. Mrs. Carroll kept an account book that included an inventory on tea items she owned and recipes she wrote down within it. That book is preserved in the Maryland Historical Society library.
