Putting the Tea in Britain

The Scots Who Made Our National Drink

Les Wilson
New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Inspired by his discovery that Archibald Campbell, a man from his home island of Islay, was the first person to plant tea in Darjeeling, Les Wilson explains how Scots were instrumental in developing our national beverage into an international commodity. Acknowledging it is history laced with exploitation and environmental devastation, he traces the stories of entrepreneurs including the Bruce Brothers and James Taylor.
