Another great one with a full background of buccaneering a privateering in the rum trade is "RUM: The Social and Sociable History of the Real Spirit of 1776" You can get it on Amazon fer about $10 used.

Rum: The Epic Story of the Drink That Conquered the World.

After visiting Thailand I was most confused, the Thai people love sugar and sweets, even added to their soups. However for alcohol they make a rice whiskey . . .

Now for the real kicker, they grow sugar cane everywhere. So here are a people that love sweets but havent figured out to make sugar cane into rum . . .
