The Foreword is by Sir George Watt, C.I.E., &c., Formerly Reporter of 

 Economic Products to the Government of India and Author of many books 

 on the chief economics, tropical and sub-tropical crops. In the course of his 

 remarks. Sir George Watt claims that " the book will become a classic on the 

 subject it deals with so ably . . . the opinions of our authorities are certain to 

 be tested at the plantations, and out of the new experience thus gained must 

 evolve the future system of manufacture," not only for cacao, but for tea and 

 other crops. 



"On this account, as the book gives comparative results of experimental 

 investigations into the Fermentation, Oxidation and Drying of Coffee, Tea, 

 Tobacco and Indigo, as well as Cacao, it is certain to attract the attention of 

 all those interested in the production, curing, shipping or buying of these crops. 



As with our book, "Coconuts — the Consols of the East" — this work on the 

 Fermentation of Cacao has been much discussed in the International press and 

 reviews and criticisms have been published on the opinions advanced, extending 

 from a few paragraphs to a number of pages, issued in pamphlet form.
