The author of the book, Qiu Zhiping, has illustrated all the stages of tea production, preparation and drinking that Lu Yu described, as well as explaining difficult-to-understand passages of his text. The book includes photographs of tea utensils from various eras found on excavations and the author's own drawings in which he reconstructed the appearance of utensils from Lu Yu's era. It will help the reader to imagine how tea was prepared and drunk at the dawn of the tea tradition. For a wide range of readers.
