Description: Espresso has long been a companion to us, whether it is the warm comforting cup on a solitary morning, an excuse for a private rendezvous, or a drink to be savored after dinner by a group of friends discussing politics, love, and the meaning of life. One of coffee's purest forms, with its deliciously bitter taste and irresistible aroma, espresso has become as much a part of our culture as it is to the Europeans.
The Espresso book celebrates this heavenly elixir with both color and black-and-white photographs and literary musings. Complete with over twenty delicious recipes from the savory to the sweet, Espresso is an essential book for coffee-lovers around the world.
