Post prohibition in the United States brought a renewed interested
in the beverage arts. The authors of this book offer wine and
spirits making as an art on the level of weaving, pottery and
smelting-arts that did not require a great amount of scientific
development, yet have reached a level of artistic perfection. Given
this historical background, Wines and Liquors provides a general
overview as well as detailed science on the production of wine and
spirits including: fermentation, sugars, yeasts, malting,
distillation and even some recipes for cordials. This book remains
as relevant today as when originally published in 1935.

reader with a historical perspective of the temperance movement in
America in the 19th century.

This absorbing book examines the period of massive structural
adjustment taking place in the wine industry. For many centuries
wine was very much a European product. While that is still the case
today - three-quarters of world wine production, consumption and
trade involve Europe and most of the rest involves just a handful
of New World countries settled by Europeans - the importance of
exports from non-European countries has risen dramatically over the
past decade. The World's Wine Markets includes an in-depth look at
the growth and impact of New World wine production on the Old World
producers, revealing that between 1990 and 2001, the New World's
combined share of world wine exports grew from 4 to 18 per cent, or
from 10 to 35 per cent when intra-European Union trade is excluded.
Original essays, by economists from each of the major wine
producing and consuming regions in the world, analyse recent
developments and future trends, and conclude that globalization of
the industry is set to continue for the foreseeable future.
Furthermore they argue that with increasing globalization, there is
a greater need than ever for systematic analysis of the world's
wine markets. This fascinating work will appeal greatly to students
enrolled in wine marketing and business courses, those studying
industrial organization, and economists and other social scientists
interested in case studies of globalization at work. As well, wine
industry participants interested in understanding the reasons
behind the recent dramatic developments in the industry will find
this rigorously analytical yet accessible book of great value.
