Sinopsis

Excerpt from On Cane Sugar and the Process of Its Manufacture in Java

The sugar cane, which is now cultivated in many varieties in every tropical and semi-tropical country of the world on a larger or smaller scale, came originally, according to De Candolle, from Cochin China or neighbouring lands, from whence it was brought over to China, the islands of the Indian Ocean, India, and afterwards to Arabia. In their wars of conquest, the Arabians introduced the cultivation of the sugar cane successively into Persia, Egypt, Palestine, Syria, along the whole North coast of Africa, into Sicily, and into Spain. The Spaniards transported it, after the expeditions of Columbus, to their empire in the West Indies and America, where the cultivation at once became a very flourishing one. Cook found the sugar cane in a cultivated state in the Polynesian islands, to which it had very probably been brought from Asia.
