Описание: Книга опубликована на основе отчета автора о винах, подготовленного для выставки в Париже 1867 года. Описаны вина Шампани, Бургундии, Бордо, восточных регионов Франции, а также Германии, Австрии, Венгрии, Италии, Испании и Португалии. Кроме того, автор касается вопросов проведения самой выставки, современной виноторговли, медицинских аспектов потребления вина.

As the principal merit of a preface is its brevity I hope to satisfy all introductory exigencies by the simple statement that, having been requested by many of my friends to republish, in the form of a pamphlet, the Report on the Wines and other Fermented Liquors of all Nations, which I had the honour to submit to Her Majesty's Commissioners for the Paris Exhibition of 1867, I have availed myself of the opportunity thus afforded me, to offer a few additional remarks on the general topic of Wines, for the consideration of the public at large. These remarks are not made in the spirit of a teacher, but rather in that of an inquirer and searcher after knowledge.
The matters touched upon are such as could scarcely have been brought within the scope of а Report; for example, the effect of trade-marks on commerce, the new and old sales of trading in nine, the duties on vine, the best mode of bringing wine within the reach of all classes, and. finally, wine from a physiological or pathological point of view.
Topics such as these, although not, perhaps, susceptible of cognizance in an official statement, are still, I apprehend, of some interest to the public.
