Search Results: COOKING / Beverages / Wine & Spirits from Barbara Bilson Books

New York: William Morrow, 1986. Very good+ (previous owner's embossed circular stamp on first free endpaper, one page with yellow highlighting which shows through on other side but does not obscure printing) in very good dust jacket (rubbed, light edgewear). Besides the frugal gourmet's recipes, the book contains a large section on choosing and serving wine (by Father Corbet Clark). Second printing.. Hard Cover. Illus. by Gary Jacobsen.

New York: Knopf, 1995. Fine in fine dust jacket. Convenient "travel" size (5 x 9 inches) with helpful sections on winemaking basics, grapes and wine types, wine geography, wine language (hard, warm, hearty, etc, for 18 pages!), and the core of the book--a long section on the wineries and specific wines and vintages. Includes a section on Oregon and Washington. Maps included. 414 pages. Third edition (the later the better, of course, but the sections on the histories and tendencies of the wineries are helpful regardless of the year, and of course the sections on wine types, winemaking, etc, are always timely.). Hard Cover.
