Summary: "A 'must' for any serious wine library"

David Copp's HUNGARY: ITS FINE WINES AND WINEMAKERS is a 'must' for any serious wine library, especially as very few books on the topic explore Hungarian wine history in depth. Chapters pair full-page color photos with details on Hungarian wine makers and regional production and grapes, reviewing Hungarian history with an eye to revealing its major producers, the evolution of the industry as a whole, and its development in perspective of overall Eastern European history.
