Not that particular book, but anyone interested in the history of
chocolate, as well as coffee, tea, and tobacco, might enjoy
_Tastes of Paradise: a Social History of Spices, Stimulants, and
Intoxicants_, by Wolfgang Schivelbusch, Pantheon 1992.  That's the
English translation by David Jacobson; the original German is
_Paradies, der Geschmack und die Vernunft_.
