A I Perold (1880-1941) was South Africa's first Professor of
Viticulture and Oenology. He dedicated himself to improving the
quality of grapes for wine, brandy and the table. He studied wine
and brandy production in Europe, imported more than 60 varieties to
the Cape and bred new ones. Perold said this book "is intended to
serve both the student and the practical grape-grower. There are in
it technical passages that will appeal more to the student, e.g.
the chapters dealing with the biology of the vine, its external and
internal morphology, the theory of grafting. My remarks on the
practice of viticulture, such as those dealing with the
propagation, manuring and pruning of the vine, the production of
table grapes for export, will, it is hoped, assist the practical
grape-grower as well as the student." This is a newly typeset
reprint, not a photocopy. Text has been aligned to match the
original pagination so any external references to pages in the
Treatise will be valid in this edition.
