"It is simply the most comprehensive and detailed history of wine in Australia that has ever been written, by a wide margin." Huon Hooke. 

"I cannot even begin to encompass the depth, breadth and scale of research that underpins this trilogy. It’s 250 years of forensic determination, from the ghostly whispers of the past to the loud digital broadcast of the present. It’s vivid and vital. When I began to read it, I started jotting down anecdotes, snippets, quotations, little things to share with you as I usually do. By the time I’d got halfway through volume 2, I’d filled half a notebook. I gave up. The detail is exquisite and it just keeps coming. You can lose yourself for hours." Tamlyn Currin. Jancis Robinson.com

"It is a triumph. It is remarkable, and it is beautiful." James Halliday.
