HUGH JOHNSON

Weidenfeld & N.

Hugh Johnson's Encyclopedia of Trees is a guide and tribute to the trees of our forests and gardens. Sir George Taylor, Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, England from 1956-1971, endorsed it heartily, "This book is likely to become a familiar and much-consulted book for many, many readers. I have been impressed by its comprehensiveness, pleased to find it so full of accurate information, and truly delighted to see a subject which as preoccupied much of my life made so fresh and such fun." ... Ask GR8 BUYS 4U if you would like to see the Table of Contents or anything else in this book before purchasing it.

Full-color maps take you on a journey of discovery from one end of the wine-producing world to the other, for it is geography that determines a wine's character, and to understand a wine you must understand the land that gave it life. Here, in remarkable detail, are the features of the great vineyards of the world, from the ancient ones of France, Italy, Germany and other European countries to the new ones of California, South Africa and Australia. Elevations, watercourses, woods, roads, buildings, farm and woodland tracts, and the contours of hills and valleys are all clearly shown, for the great evocative names - Burgundy, Champagne, Beaune, Madeira - signify both wines and places.
