"Marry him and you'll be sure of wine for life!" So said a friend of the author's fiancÃ(c) in 1948. Now he and his wife are in their 60th year of marriage and are heading for their Diamond Wedding celebration. This fascinating book illustrates the joy that has enhanced their lives together through their joint appreciation of wine. The main focus throughout is on wine itself and on life in the wine trade as seen through the eyes of one who was deeply involved in it for almost all his working life. It covers a period of great change from just before the Second World War to the late 20th Century. The author has a clear flowing writing style that is easily followed. It is straightforward and often humorous with many anecdotes enlivening an already colorful subject. The illustrations help to set the time period visually and add much human interest to the narrative providing a historic record of a period in which there was a remarkable surge in the drinking of wine coupled with a keen desire to learn more about it.
