Excellent overall with many minor glitches
He has a thoroughly enjoyable writing style (especially the puns) with superb information. I use the book very frequently when purchasing. These errors are minor but the sheer quantity of them seems inexcusable, especially in an encyclopedia and in an edition that has been "fully revised and updated". *The book does not explain the difference between "organic" and "bio-diversity" and the ...

Not a book for H. Moon "MHC"
H. Moon, you should never have purchased this book! Wine Report is not a book for anybody, it's not even a book for just any old wine drinker. It's for true wine fanatics, wine geeks, wine nerds. It's unashamedly elitist. Sales should be restricted to those with a certain level of wine knowledge. It's for those people who already know the basics of Bordeaux and, indeed, a bit about Lebanon. If ...

Excellent source for beginners
I checked this book out of the library, and liked it so much I had to get a copy for myself! I am organizing a wine tasting group, and my hope is to educate as well as learn along with everyone else. We range from novice to experience wine tasters in our group. This little guidebook is one that I will bring to every tasting as a quick reference for those who want to learn an overview. My ...

If it's a blend of wine science, tips, ...

Careful what you wish for
Stevenson wrote this tale of the islands in 1891 and it appeared in Samoan before being published in English. The story is one of want and envy. Although it ends happily, the narrator comes perilously close to living eternally with the devil--all for his envy. There is poetry in this prose, love, and of course magic. The tale opens as Keawe the Great--a poor, brave, mariner, a reader and writer, ...

Clients Are Different than Customers
Tom is a great storyteller and does a nice job of blending consultative selling concepts with ready to apply advice. Although this may seem like a sales book its much more. It really is about how relationships make a significant difference on long term client loyalty.

the book is dated but very well written
For Alsace wine enthusiasts this is a wonderful read, and has just about all the pertinent facts about the region, among them all the famous and less well known varietals, all the major producers, the villages, the grand cru vinyards complete with maps, technical information about the Vendanges Tardive and Selection de Grains Noble and how they compare to the German QmP designations, extensive ...

Kidnapped My Attention!
Oh, what a great book! Robert Louis Stevenson strikes a perfect balance between action and description. As previous reviews have said much about the plot and the worth of reading this wonderful book, I will add just a bit. Buy a copy of this tale for any child aged ten or older, and they'll have a story of adventure to read over and over again as they grow up! I guarantee it will be a work ...

A good, nuts-and-bolts guide.
As someone seeking information on champagne, this book gives a good overview of the different champagne houses and bottles.Considering this subject has so few books on this matter, it's good that this book provides a solid, nuts-and-bolts overview on champagne. If only there were more...

The ultimate sparkling wine reference guide
This book mentions every sparkling wine you've ever heard of and many more that you haven't. I own several other good champagne books, but if I could only choose one, this would be it. My favorite feature: Stevenson mentions the best wines for each vintage -- something no other book I've found does. Highly recommended.

A Great Gift for Wine Lovers
I originally intended to give this book to my uncle for his 65th birthday, but when I started leafing through it, I found myself completely drawn in. An incredible lineup of wine writers have contributed to this book, making for some truly fascinating reading on the history of wine. I kept a copy for myself, and bought another one for my uncle (who told me he much preferred it to the ties and ...
