This book's strength is not where you think it is. The material is fascinating enough, but it's the delightful telling of the author's adventures exploring the globe for pigments that makes it a 5 star book. Finlay explores some very challenging places - she even goes into caves & mines, which is my personal nightmare, so kudos to her.
