Great Photos, Good Coverage

This book has good coverage of the New World areas. The photos are very good quality, varied and informative. I just wish they had used a Screwpull for a photo instead of those silly wing-type corkscrews. Some personel are covered, from various wineries, which is interesting (similar to the "Wine Spectator" or "Wines & Spirits" coverage). Most of the content focuses on grapes and land, with some coverage of equipment usage.
