Knowing which country, which region, which vineyard, and even which hillside a wine comes from adds enormously to the pleasure of drinking it. Through its unique cartography--more than seventy-five spectacular, hand-painted panoramic maps--and Oz Clarke's lively and opinionated prose, this revolutionary atlas illustrates and explains the vital connections between the land, the winemaker, and the wine. This edition has been completely revised, updated, and expanded, with a closer look at Napa and Sonoma, and new maps for Chile, Argentina, and elsewhere. No other book maps the world of wine as vividly, and no wine library is complete without "Oz Clarke's New Wine Atlas." ; Contents: The world of wine -- The vine and its environment -- WOrld climate and vinyards -- Siting the vinyard -- The importance of soil -- The modern vineyard -- Grapes of the world -- Wine styles -- From grape to glass -- Wines and wine regions of the world -- List of panoramic maps -- France -- THe wine regions of France -- Bordeaux -- The Medoc and Haut-medoc -- Graves and Pessac-Leognan -- St-Emilion, Pomerol & Fronsac -- Bordeaux sweet wines -- Rest of Bordeaux -- Burgundy -- Chablis -- Cote de Nuits -- COte de Beaune -- Core Chalonnaise -- Maconnais -- Beaujolais -- Champagne -- Heart of Champagne -- ALsace -- Heart of Alsace -- The Loire Valley -- Anjou-Saumur -- Touraine -- Sancerre and Pouilly -- The Rhone Valley -- Northern Rhone -- Southern Rhone -- Jura and Savoie -- Provence -- Languedoc-Roussillon -- Corsica -- South-west France -- Vins de Pays -- Germany -- The wine regions of Germany -- Mosel-Saar-Ruwer -- Middle Mosel -- Saar-Ruwer -- The Rhine Valley -- Ahr and Mittelrhein -- Rheingau -- Nahe -- Rheinhessen -- Pfalz -- Franken -- Baden-Wurttemberg -- Hessiche Bergstrasse -- Saale-Unstrut and Sachsen -- Switzerland -- Valais -- Austrai -- Niederosterreich -- Burgenland -- Italy -- The wine regions of Italy -- Piedmont -- Barolo and Barbaresco -- North-east Italy -- Trentino-Alto Adige -- Veneto -- Friuli-Venezia Giulia -- Central Italy -- Tuscany -- Chianti -- Brunello Montalcino -- Southern Italy -- Sardinia -- Sicily -- SPain -- The wine regions of Spain -- North-east Spain -- Catalonia -- Rioja -- Aragon and Navarra -- North-west Spain -- Ribera del Duero -- Central Spain -- Southern Spain -- Jerez -- Portugal -- The wine regions of Portugal -- Northern Portugal -- The Duoro Valley -- Central and Southern Portugal -- Madeira -- England -- Czech and Slovak Republics -- Hungary -- Black Sea States -- Romania -- Western Balkans -- Bulgaria -- Eastern Mediterranean -- North America -- The wine regions of North America -- California -- North Coast -- North Central Coast -- South Central Coast -- Central and Souther California -- Pacific North-west -- Washington State -- Oregon -- East Coast -- New York State -- Canada -- South America and Mexico -- Chile -- Aconagua and Central Valley -- Argentina -- Australia -- The wine regions of Australia -- South Australia -- Barosssa Valley -- Coonawarra -- Calre Valley -- Victoria -- Yarra Valley -- New South Wales -- Hunter Valley -- Western Australia -- Margaret River -- Tasmania -- Queensland and Northern Territoy -- New Zealand -- North Island -- Hawkes Bay -- South Island -- Marlborough -- SOuth Africa -- Stellenbosch and Paarl -- North Africa -- Asia.; Large, heavy volume ; FINE/FINE.

Glen Iris, Vic. : Baker Publishing Co., October 1966. Quarto newspaper (270 x 215 mm), pictorial wrappers printed in red and black, staple bound, 24 pp (including wrappers), photographic illustrations, cartoons; a very good copy. A sleazier and intellectually less ambitious counterpart to Oz magazine, Tom Thumb did however provide some biting and witty social and political satire to complement its soft-core pornographic pictorial content (the latter clearly being what sold copies). The publication was very much a product of its time: the age of sexual liberalism and the permissive society in Western capitalist culture.Two legendary identities in the Mebourne arts scene worked on Tom Thumb: the art director for the majority of the issues was Peter Russell-Clarke, and the editorial advisor was Adrian Rawlins; the cartoonist was Ron Tandberg. Although the magazine had distribution in Sydney, Adelaide, Perth and Hobart (and later in Brisbane), many of the short articles reference Melbourne landmarks, lifestyle and events, making Tom Thumb an important primary source for the study of the social history of Melbourne in this period. Issue Number 13 includes on the centre-pages an article satirising the stereotypical characteristics of the (white, hetereosexual) Australian male,Anatomy of an Australian."For the benefit of tourists and immigrants to Australia, Tom Thumb presents this scorching, clinical survey into a unique member of the human species".
