Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Official Report of the Session of the International Congress of Viticulture: Held in Recital Hall at Festival Hall, Panama-Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco Cal;, July 12 and 13, 1915 The International Congress of Viticulture of 1915 was held at San Francisco under the authority of the Permanent International Commission, in accordance with a resolution of that body voted on June 11, 1913, at Ghent, Belgium. At that time no one anticipated that by reason of a world-wide war the European members would be unable to attend. The international character of the Congress was preserved as much as possible by the co-operation of the various countries concerned, whose governments accepted the invitation to furnish representatives from among their European commissioners. The members attending the Congress and the papers presented were almost entirely American. The absence of most of the active members of former Congresses, and the lack of their valuable papers and discussion, were serious deficiencies. The Congress, however, was valuable as an indication of the progress and extent of viticulture in the United States and the report should be of interest to the viticulturists of the world as a symposium of American viticulture. The activities of the Congress consisted of meetings in San Francisco, at which the papers were presented and discussed, and of excursions to some of the most important viticultural centers of California. The papers presented covered a wide range of viticultural interests. They included seven addresses on historical, educational and commercial aspects of viticulture; five on various cultural topics; seven special regional studies representing most of the grape-growing regions of the United States; fifteen studies of fungous diseases, injurious insects and of methods of control; nine papers on the chemistry, technics and products of viticulture and several miscellaneous papers.

Download or read book Crush written by John Briscoe and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, TopShelf Magazine Book Awards Historical Non-fiction Finalist, Northern California Book Awards General Non-Fiction Look. Smell. Taste. Judge. Crush is the 200-year story of the heady dream that wines as good as the greatest of France could be made in California. A dream dashed four times in merciless succession until it was ultimately realized in a stunning blind tasting in Paris. In that tasting, in the year of America's bicentennial, California wines took their place as the leading wines of the world. For the first time, Briscoe tells the complete and dramatic story of the ascendancy of California wine in vivid detail. He also profiles the larger story of California itself by looking at it from an entirely innovative perspective, the state seen through its singular wine history. With dramatic flair and verve, Briscoe not only recounts the history of wine and winemaking in California, he encompasses a multidimensional approach that takes into account an array of social, political, cultural, legal, and winemaking sources. Elements of this history have plot lines that seem scripted by a Sophocles, or Shakespeare. It is a fusion of wine, personal histories, cultural, and socioeconomic aspects. Crush is the story of how wine from California finally gained its global due. Briscoe recounts wine’s often fickle affair with California, now several centuries old, from the first harvest and vintage, through the four overwhelming catastrophes, to its amazing triumph in Paris.

Download or read book Empire of Vines written by Erica Hannickel and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 313 pages. 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.
