Excerpt from Chorlton's Grape Growers Guide: A Hand-Book of the Cultivation of the Exotic Grape

Owing to the favorable reception Of my monograph. The Cold Grapery, by those who are interested in grape culture, and the commendations of intelligent practical cultivators Of this luscious fruit, I have determined to comply with the request of friends, by giving a more comprehensive edition, with the hope that my humble efforts may be Of sergios to the public.

What is recorded is simply an explanation Of my own experience and Observation, and an expression of my deliberately formed opinions. The method here given has been successful hitherto, and is founded upon the practice of the last quarter century. I have endeavored, as much as possible, to give a common-sense view of the whole routine, to embody every idea required in each department, and labored to make the detail concise, yet plain.

Such as it is, I submit it to a discerning and intelligent public, and Shall be amply repaid for my trouble, if it shall hereafter be the means of extending a true know ledge, of the subject on which it treats.
