The most informative book on Napa Valley,
By James Leigh "Grandpa" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: California's Napa Valley: One Hundred Sixty Years of Wine Making (Hardcover)
This is not a splashy picture book, but a thorough and highly informative history of wine making in the Napa Valley, from the earliest German, French and Italian vintners to the present. The book gives a history of the development of varietal wines in the prime wine region of America, or perhaps in the world. It is particularly interesting for its treatment of the Prohibition era, when wine makers resorted to astonishing measures to stay solvent. Handsome hardcover volume, very well designed, with excellent black and white illustrations.

This one of the most entertaining books I've read about the region. Mr. Heintz paints a very colorful picture while introducing you to the more interesting facts concerning the areas history.
