The worldwide bestseller - 1/4 million copies sold 'Written by a
World Barista Champion and co-founder of the great Square Mile
roasters in London, this had a lot to live up to and it certainly
does. Highly recommended for anyone into their coffee and
interested in finding out more about how it's grown, processed and
roasted.' (Amazon customer) 'Whether you are an industry
professional, a home enthusiast or anything in between, I truly
believe this is a MUST read.' (Amazon customer) 'Informative,
well-written and well presented. Coffee table and reference book -
a winner' (Amazon customer) 'Very impressive. It's amazing how much
territory is covered without overwhelming the reader. The abundant
photos and images are absolutely coffee-table-worthy, but this book
is so much more. I think it would be enjoyable for an obsessed
coffee geek or someone who just enjoys their java.' (Amazon
customer) For everyone who wants to understand more about coffee
and its wonderful nuances and possibilities, this is the book to
have. Coffee has never been better, or more interesting, than it is
today. Coffee producers have access to more varieties and
techniques than ever before and we, as consumers, can share in that
expertise to make sure the coffee we drink is the best we can find.
Where coffee comes from, how it was harvested, the roasting process
and the water used to make the brew are just a few of the factors
that influence the taste of what we drink. Champion barista and
coffee expert James Hoffmann examines these key factors, looking at
varieties of coffee, the influence of terroir, how it is harvested
and processed, the roasting methods used, through to the way in
which the beans are brewed. Country by country - from Bolivia to
Zambia - he then identifies key characteristics and the methods
that determine the quality of that country's output. Along the way
we learn about everything from the development of the espresso
machine, to why strength guides on supermarket coffee are really
not good news. This is the first book to chart the coffee
production of over 35 countries, encompassing knowledge never
previously published outside the coffee industry.

create a network of walking routes that connect all of Great
Britain's towns and cities as well as thousands of villages and
every national park. People can use the routes to walk between
neighbouring places or combine routes to travel over longer
distances. Slow Ways was kick-started during the first lockdown
with hundreds of volunteers suggesting thousands of routes. There
are now over 8,000 routes in the network that cover over 120,000km.
Using the Slow Ways website, people are now walking the routes to

Few writers are as inextricably linked with a city as Raymond
Chandler and Los Angeles. The neon-lit streets, mobbed-up joints
and seedy rooming houses portrayed in his fiction were real places,
familiar to Angelenos of the time, and in some cases recognisable
today. This is a guide to the world of Raymond Chandler and his
noble alter-ego, the private detective Philip Marlowe. It mixes
locations from the books, the films and Chandler's personal life.
There's the crummy dive where Moose Malloy went looking for Velma;
the actual lounge where Marlowe and Terry Lennox ordered gimlets;
the top-floor suite where oil executive Chandler got his priceless
education in how a dirty, sun-drenched city really operated. This
is the Los Angeles that Raymond Chandler carried in his heart. And
now, you can too.
