Cavaland. Who, how and why invented our favorite drink
Synopsys by Augustine Sedgwick
In the twentieth century, an English trader, James Gill, was able to build an entire coffee empire in the Republic of El Salvador through cunning and cruelty. How did he do it? This fantastic and little-known story is told by the author of this book, a researcher of the history of food, work, and capitalism, a member of the Harvard Project on Justice, Welfare, and Economics, Augustine Sedgwick. He shows how we drink coffee every day and don’t even think about the conditions under which it could have been harvested and ground. James Gill’s plantations were subjected to inhumane conditions – coffee became almost a symbol of capitalism, so people who were subordinate to the plantation owner had to work even harder and more powerfully.
This story will actually explain macroeconomic, social, and political processes to readers using a very familiar and illustrative example – the process of growing coffee beans.
About the author
Augustine Sedgwick is a professor of American history and culture at the City University of New York.
Why this book is good:
Coffee has gained popularity and become an essential attribute of modern society in just 200 years. And few people know this story of its formation as an extremely widespread drug. Especially coffee lovers know little about the cruelty that prevailed on coffee plantations and about James Hill, the founder of one of the first coffee dynasties in the 20th century.
There are so many twists and turns in the book that you sometimes forget that you are not reading about drug lords, but about the producers of seemingly ordinary coffee.
