The vine-dresser's manual

The object of these pages is to furnish to such as have no opportunity to learn the Vitners business practically, easily comprehended and reliable instructions, so that even the most inexperienced may, with this book in his hand, start, plant, perfect and cultivate a vineyard, and make good, wholesome wine. The writer is himself a practical vintner, owns vineyards, has worked and does work in them. He gives to the reader the knowledge derived from reading, and also through a somewhat extended intercourse with vitners from various countries, as well as his own actual observation in various parts of U.S. and Europe.
