Grape Growing

Good text on the subject. Of course being an older book, it's kind of California specific, but most if not all the info can be adapted to your locale.

SUPERB Info! For serious grape growers - more info than any other I've encountered in EASY to unders

Superb information. Easy to understand yet comprehensive. This is a "must have" for grape growers. Only reason I'm getting rid of it is area I now live doesn't support grapes [outside of muscadine which grow like a weed]. This covers everything the others don't.

Excellent how-to.

I got the book from the library and I want it. There is too much good detail to remember. Can you talk them into publishing it on CD Rom? Or, can they at least print some more so I can buy it? It is a narrow subject that probably doesn't have enough readers, but it is good.
