Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lush, sun-drenched vineyards of California evoke a romantic, agrarian image of winemaking, though in reality the industry reflects American agribusiness at its most successful. Nonetheless, as author Erica Hannickel shows, this fantasy is deeply rooted in the history of grape cultivation in America. Empire of Vines traces the development of wine culture as grape growing expanded from New York to the Midwest before gaining ascendancy in California—a progression that illustrates viticulture's centrality to the nineteenth-century American projects of national expansion and the formation of a national culture. Empire of Vines details the ways would-be gentleman farmers, ambitious speculators, horticulturalists, and writers of all kinds deployed the animating myths of American wine culture, including the classical myth of Bacchus, the cult of terroir, and the fantasy of pastoral republicanism. Promoted by figures as varied as horticulturalist Andrew Jackson Downing, novelist Charles Chesnutt, railroad baron Leland Stanford, and Cincinnati land speculator Nicholas Longworth (known as the father of American wine), these myths naturalized claims to land for grape cultivation and legitimated national expansion. Vineyards were simultaneously lush and controlled, bearing fruit at once culturally refined and naturally robust, laying claim to both earthy authenticity and social pedigree. The history of wine culture thus reveals nineteenth-century Americans' fascination with the relationship between nature and culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vines and Vine Culture So long ago as the year 1873 we were induced to commence a series of short papers on Vines and Vine Culture for the pages of The Florist and Pomologist. Although appearing at distant and irregular intervals, these papers have, in the course of time, extended to some length; and inasmuch as they embrace certain matters pertaining to Grape-growing that had not before been introduced into any work specially devoted to the Viue, they have met with a considerable amount of notice and approval. Thus encouraged, and having been repeatedly urged to have the whole re-published in such a form as to make it a comprehensive Guide or d104 Book on Vine culture-primarily for the use of amateurs and young gardeners-we have at length consented to do so, in the hope that, despite its many imperfections and omissions, it may be the means of affording some useful aid to those who are interested in tho growth of Grapes. Vines and Vine Culture, as it is now submitted to tire public, much exceeds in extent and variety the paper originally published in The Florist and Pomologist, many new chapters having been added, together with numerous plates and other illustrations. The portraits of the varieties of Grammis have been photographed from Nature directly on to the wood block by Mr. A E. Smith, and engraved with much skill by Mr. Worthington G. Smith. The Vine has not hitherto been without its records, for many treatises, from the pens of the most experienced cultivators of the day, have from time to time appeared. These are entitled to the very greatest respect, as being records of successful practice in the management of the Vine, and the production of its fruit. Indeed, scarcely any gardening subject has been more ably or more copiously dealt with. It has been our endeavour to go a little beyond our predecessors in the same walk, and to treat of Vines and Grapes in all their various phases and characters; iu a won , to provide a work on Vines that may at times prove useful to the skilled practitioner, as well as to the inexperienced amateur or the student.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winegrower and journalist Richard Figiel offers the first comprehensive history of New York wine, following its turbulent evolution across the state and emerging as a dynamic player in the world of fine wine. He begins by examining New York's distinctive viticultural roots and the geologic forces that shaped the state's terrain for winegrowing. Starting with early efforts to grow grapes for wine in the Hudson Valley, the story moves west to the Finger Lakes and Lake Erie, circles around the state from Long Island to the North Country, and, finally, to contemporary New York City. Through industry booms and busts, he explores the New York wine industry's continuing process of reinvention by resourceful immigrants, family dynasties, giant corporations, and back-to-the-land dreamers. Moving across centuries of winemaking, Figiel unfolds an extraordinary array of grape species, varieties, and wines.
