A History of Beer and Brewing provides a comprehensive account of the history of beer and is a fascinating read for all enthusiasts. The book highlights how research carried out during the last quarter of the 20th century has permitted us to re-think the way in which some ancient civilizations went about their beer production, and in doing so covers a time-span of around eight thousand years. The reader is shown how various highly innovative technical developments have led to the sophistication and efficiency of 21st century brewing methodology. The book is aimed at a wide readership, with the use of original quotations and references enabling the serious scholar to delve into this subject in even greater depth.
