The Frozen-Water Trade discusses how ice was risen from a luxury good only available to the wealthy in a very slim part of the world to a global commodity being sold and consumed in every part of the world to a good so common and inexpensive that is almost ignored by modern society. The Frozen-Water Trade talks about how foods like ice cream, popsicles, and snowcones came to be popular cultural staples with the advent of an ice-industry.
The Frozen-Water Trade also talks about how the ice-trade managed to rise up from one man in a boat to Martinique with a ridiculous plan to an international industry of ice-barons selling their goods across the globe. Ultimately, it talks about how the industry collapsed at the height of its power and was replaced by "freezers"; additions now present in nearly every refrigerator around.
