Title
History and description of modern wines
Creator (Person)
Creation Date (Original)
1833
Description
This is the first book in English that deals exclusively with modern wines. It was an immediate success and required a second edition in 1836, a third in 1851 and subsequent printings thereafter. According to Andre Simon, "...no other book written in English on the subject of wines has ever been more popular nor so copiously copied from by later writers than Redding's 'History.'" As a reference for information about the wines of the later 18th and early 19th centuries that are still produced today, there is nothing better in the English language. Redding writes in an unpretentious style that makes him more readable than Barry or Henderson, both of whom he criticizes in theintroduciton to "A History and Description of Modern Wines." cf. Gabler, p. 221.
