Coffee Smuggler is based on the true story of Gabriel De Clieu, a French soldier who stole a coffee plant from King Louis XV in 1723 and smuggled it to the island of Martinique. There was only one coffee plant in France, locked in the King's botanical garden. The King and many nobles had refused De Clieu's petitions for a cutting of the plant, so De Clieu seduced a noble woman with a strange illness. She had access the royal doctor Chirac who secretly gave a cutting of the King's plant to De Clieu. With the plant in hand, De Clieu boarded the ill-fated Le Dromedaire and faced pirate attacks, a hurricane, and starvation in the doldrums to bring this precious plant back to his home on Martinique. I invite you to set sail on this swashbuckling adventure of the man who brought coffee to the Americas.

Before Colombia became one of the world’s largest producers of cocaine in the 1980s, traffickers from the Caribbean coast partnered with American buyers in the 1970s to make the South American country the main supplier of marijuana for a booming US drug market, fueled by the US hippie counterculture. How did Colombia become central to the creation of an international drug trafficking circuit? Marijuana Boom is the story of this forgotten history. Combining deep archival research with unprecedented oral history, Lina Britto deciphers a puzzle: Why did the Colombian coffee republic, a model of Latin American representative democracy and economic modernization, transform into a drug paradise, and at what cost?

Precious Cargo written by David Dewitt and has been published by Catapult this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014-05-26 with Cooking categories.
Precious Cargo tells the fascinating story of how western hemisphere foods conquered the globe and saved it from not only mass starvation, but culinary as well. Focusing heavily American foods—specifically the lowly crops that became commodities, plus one gobbling protein source, the turkey—Dewitt describes how these foreign and often suspect temptations were transported around the world, transforming cuisines and the very fabric of life on the planet. Organized thematically by foodstuff, Precious Cargo delves into the botany, zoology and anthropology connected to new world foods, often uncovering those surprising individuals who were responsible for their spread and influence, including same traders, brutish conquerors, a Scottish millionaire obsessed with a single fruit and a British lord and colonial governor with a passion for peppers, to name a few. Precious Cargo is a must read for foodies and historians alike.

It was just another day for award winning documentarian and army brat, Kat Delbath. Late hours in the dark, editing her latest project were nothing new; but little did she know that tonight she was on a collision course with terrorists that would flip her life upside down and prove to her that everything she knew was a lie. In the midst of a series of terror attacks, she’s learning that the universe is a little more crowded than she realized. Kat owes her life to her very own version of a knight in shining armor: An Armada Centurion in Black Armor. Meet Ranger. Her world will never be the same. From the book: And how do you plan on making your escape?" "Sir, do you really think you could stop me if I wanted to leave? When the time comes, I will walk out that door under my own power and whether or not you leave with me as my friend or are left lying unconscious in the corner there will be your choice. For my part in this, I'd like for us to be friends because we do have a mutual enemy."
