Summary
Thomas Reinertsen Berg: A History of Spices: Travels, Discoveries and Conquests
"No other product is more responsible for connecting East and West, South and North than spices. They represent the oldest and deepest roots of the world economy. Cloves grew only on the islands in the north of the Moluccas, and cinnamon only in Sri Lanka, and thousands of ships set sail for these precious plants. Global trade was driven by only a few products narrowly associated with specific areas - plants that were created as a result of millions of years of geological activity. However, the clove trade was limited to the Moluccas and the surrounding islands. After that, it spread to Java, where the Chinese went to get this spice, and then, with the development of ships and the spread of spices, to India, Arabia, Greece and Rome global long before what we now call the era of globalization. This is really a book about how spices traveled around the world and how far people were willing to travel to get them."
