Sugar was only discovered by western Europeans as a result of the Crusades in the 11th Century AD. Crusaders returning home talked of this new spice and how pleasant it was. The first sugar was recorded in England in 1099. The subsequent centuries saw a major expansion of western European trade with the East, including the importation of sugar. It is recorded, for instance, that sugar was available in London at two shillings a pound in 1319 AD.
The Sugar Act of 1764 was Britain s first attempt to tax the Americans for purposes of revenue. If it was the greatest precedent for the Stamp Act of 1765, it was not the only one. The five years before the Stamp Act Crisis saw many other invasions of American rights by the British.
