This book places grapes in the context of their family, the
Vitaceae. It begins by focusing on the relationship of the family
to other angiosperms and the interrelationships and characteristics
of its genera. Two chapters emphasize the structure and development
of its major vegetative and reproductive characteristics. Keys and
illustrated descriptions for 19 North American species including 10
Vitis are provided. The three chapters on Vitis begin with a brief
history of grape growing, with emphasis on North America. There is
an illustrated life history of grape, following the two-year cycle
from bud initiation to fruit maturity. The final chapter discusses
the history of grapevine identification in North America,
concluding with descriptions and illustrations of 30 important
North American cold climate cultivars. The book is a general
resource for understanding the growth, development, life history,
and identification of grapes and the Vitaceae.
