This book was released on 2013-09-25 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1866, this was among the very first books in America on the subject of wine production. The author, George Husmann, was a German immigrant, civil war veteran, Missouri resident, and one of Americas leading experts on wine. He founded the first national magazine devoted to wine, and believed that good wine could be produced in America. He achieved international renown in the late 1870's when he helped saved vineyards in France devastated by root louse, by shipping his resistant American stock to France. Although many works on the subject of growing wine have been written in recent years, this remains a classic. It was written as a practical how-to guide for anyone interested in growing grapes and creating their own vineyard. Much of the advice is still pertinent and especially relevant to bio dynamic and organic vineyards today. INTRODUCTION GRAPE CULTURE. PROPAGATION OF THE VINE.
