My latest book, Tea in 18th Century America, is on the bookshelves!
SO honored for the reviews of the book -
"I
enjoyed all aspects of your talk in July at the Paca House. You brought
the colonial period--with its tea--to life for me. Your research,
appreciation for history, and description with illustrations helped to
make the event exceptional." ~Linda Heil, August 2023

I am grateful to Lucinda Brant for writing the Foreward, and to everyone who encouraged and supported me in writing this book, including Jim McGaughey who suggested I actually do it.
You can find a great review on the Journal of the American Revolution page! “…the book
has an intensely exciting “air” to it. It is this constant fervor that keeps
the reader invested in the book.”
“…a valuable
resource for anyone interested in learning more about the daily lives of the
colonists.”
Muzzleloader Magazine gave a wonderful review in the March/April 2020 edition.
It is available via my Etsy shop.
This book is also available on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble. Prices fluctuate on these sites, and they often times offer free shipping. A great deal; however, the books will NOT be signed by me if that is important to you.
This book includes so much information on the importance of tea in America during the 18th century. There are lots of original source prints, portraits, newspaper clippings, instructions on what you need for a proper 18th century "tea", and recipes included within.
There is a bonus chapter about Margaret Tilghman Carroll of Mount Clare in Baltimore, Maryland where she lived with her husband, Charles Carroll, the Barrister. She was acquainted with General George Washington and Martha Washington as well as Charles Willson Peale - who painted her portrait which is in my book courtesy of Mount Clare Museum House.
Retail price is $36.95. Publisher is K. Walters at the Sign of the Gray Horse (Ingram). Resellers, museum sites, and giftshops can go directly to Ingram or contact me directly at kimberlywalters@comcast.net (I offer a less expensive wholesale price).
