Chronicled are the growth, decline, and rebirth of the major winegrowing areas-covering both large and small vineyards-and trends in consumption. Also profiled in depth are the winemakers of today and yesterday, including the early visionaries who saw wine as a civilizing agent in the new colonies and a product that could boost their struggling economies, the patriarchs of the wine families of South Australia, and the new breed of boutique winemakers. An up-to-date listing of current winemakers provides contact information, prize-winning wines, and best recent vintages and yield.

Review The British Brewing Industry, 1830-1980 / Cambridge University Press:No industry provides more household names than brewing; none retains a firmer place in British culture; and at the height of the temperance movement none was more controversial. Yet this volume provides an extended account of brewing in the modern period. Thoroughly based upon research in brewing archives, it surveys the industry from 1830 to 1980, tracing its development from one in which there were thousands of firms producing beer to one now dominated by half a dozen large companies. It is an account which carries the reader from the porters, ales and stouts, the vast vats, drays and myriad beer houses of early Victorian England, to the draught lagers, giant fermenters, beer tankers and theme pubs of the late twentieth century. In this wide-ranging book the authors discuss free trade in beer, the impact of temperance, and the emergence of the great Victorian breweries together with their acquisition of public houses and company status. In the twentieth century, they examine the impact of two World Wars, the movement for improved public houses, the sobriety of the 1920s, and the revolution sweeping the industry since the 1950s.

Review The Wine Regions of Australia: The Complete Guide with over 60 Maps / Allen & Unwin:In response to a growing movement to classify Australian wine in more regional terms, this geography of wine looks at Australia's wine regions and subregions-from Victoria, Tasmania, and South Australia to New South Wales, Western Australia, and Queensland. Encyclopedic in scope, this book will help wine enthusiasts understand the unique qualities of Australian wines and discover the country's many vineyards, both large and small. It provides a brief history and details on location, altitude, and general topography of the regions, as well as a discussion of soil quality and climate control, descriptions of regional differences in grape cultivation and winemaking, and harvesting times and methods. Important wine styles and grape varieties of each region are summarized, including pinot noir, cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, Adelaide Hill, Riesling, and Semillon. Included are ratings of many of the vineyards listed.
