Thomas Jefferson on Wine

"Thomas Jefferson On Wine is the definitive account of a founding father's lifelong pursuit of good wine. International wine judge and syndicated columnist John Hailman traces Jefferson's evolution from wine novice to greatest wine expert of early America. He shows how Jefferson's tastes developed and which wines and foods he preferred at different stages of his long life, from his law student days in Williamsburg to his retirement years at Monticello. Relying on Jefferson's own words, excerpted from his immensely readable and surprisingly modern letters on the subject, Hailman's book serves as an introduction to both wine and Jefferson."--BOOK JACKET.Hailman, John is the author of 'Thomas Jefferson on Wine', published 2006 under ISBN 9781578068418 and ISBN 157806841X.
