Book Reviews of The House of Mondavi: The Rise and Fall of an American Wine Dynasty

Book Review: A great work
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent work. I grew up in this area, including the Napa area and the book brings back many memories of the growth of the wineries, Charles Krug, Mondavi and other wineries. I've recommended it to many of my friends, who, also have some familiarity with the development of the wine industry in Northern California. Highly recommend it. Well written
