In this bodice-ripping wine book that got widespread and excellent reviews in hardcover, multiple James Beard and IACP award-winning writer Natalie MacLean’s journey through the international world of wine is the perfect companion for neophytes and wine aficionados alike.
Natalie travels to the ancient vineyards of Burgundy to uncover the secrets of the pinot noir, the “heartbreak grape” from which some of the most coveted wines in the world are made. She visits the labyrinthine cellars of Champagne to examine the myths and the mystique of bubbly.  She pulls on sturdy boots to help with the harvest at the vineyards of iconoclastic Californian winemaker Randall Grahm and goes undercover as sommelier for a night in a five-star restaurant with a wine list the thickness of a telephone directory.

Product Description
About this no-nonsense introduction to stonework, we’ll let one of the book’s reviewers speak for us.  The following is from National Gardening magazine.  “Most of the handful of books on garden stonework are fairly long on romance and a little short on the mundane details.  Step-by-Step Outdoor Stonework, however, gets right down to describing 20 fairly simple garden projects, mostly made with stone that is for sale in any stoneyard, or even at a large garden center.  If garden stonework appeals to you, this is a good introduction with projects and guidelines for the small modern garden.” Amazon.com Review
This is a project book, with more than 20 easy-to-build projects for patio and garden using a variety of stone. Walls, arches, paths, steps, rock gardens, fountains, seats and tables, sundials, patios, and even birdbaths are described in detail and illustrated with hundreds of drawings and color photographs.
