Dying on the Vine

How Phylloxera Transformed Wine

"George Gale's book, a scientific whodunit, will certainly become the standard work on the little yellow bug that caused such devastation for winemakers from 1867 to recent times. It's a tale well told about a small group of scientists who fought a lonely battle against both the devastator and an arrogant academic establishment."-George M. Taber, author of Judgment of Paris--California vs France and the 1976 Wine Tasting That Revolutionized Wine
