<p>Second edition hardcover which is in as new condition and signed and inscribed by the author. Please see photos for condition. Seller will carefully wrap book in bubble wrap box it and ship it with tracking.</p>For more than 500 years Madeira has been made from the slopes of a volcanic island off the coast of Morocco. There was a time in the late 1700s and early 1800s when it was the English-speaking world's most revered beverage but a century of vine calamities wars and economic disasters nearly ended its production and caused a long descent into oblivion.<br /><br />Yet Madeira's virtual immortality insured its eventual rediscovery. Today we can still find bottles of Madeira made in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries whose vivid flavors and powerful aromas argue that this is among the world's greatest wines.<br /><br />Of all the books ever written about Madeira the most admired is Noel Cossart's <i>Madeira The Island Vineyard</i>. Noel was the fourth and final generation of his family to manage Madeira's most important wine producer Cossart Gordon. He entered the firm in 1925 and managed it from 1936 until 1953 when economic conditions forced him to sell the firm's assets to the Madeira Wine Association.<br /><br />When Noel retired from the wine business in 1976 his old friend from Christie's Michael Broadbent convinced him to draw on his long experience and deep family archives to write <i>Madeira The Island Vineyard</i> which was published by Christie's in 1984.<br /><br />Noel's book was very warmly received. Yet it had only one printing and soon became scarce even in second-hand bookstores. But with the new millennium interest in Madeira has grown and so has demand for Noel's book. By the summer of 2010 the average asking price for the first edition of <i>Madeira The Island Vineyard</i> on the antiquarian book market reached $500.<br /><br />This richly illustrated new edition of <i>Madeira The Island Vineyard</i> makes Noel's words available again. But it also benefits from extensive new material including the first published history of Noel s own life; an unprecedented compilation of Madeira auction prices from the 1970s to the present and Noel's private correspondence with several other wine scholars in the months following the book's 1984 publication.
