Ginseng Diggers: A History of Root and Herb Gathering in Appalachia
Ginseng Diggers is surprising by many turns—it reveals the earliness, the size, and the global reach of the medicinal herb market extending out of Appalachia, as well as the lesser-known circuits of nineteenth-century capital, in intense detail. For instance, regional trade in ginseng was well established by the 1730s, and by the late 1700s, ginseng proved crucial for opening trade relations with China (17). By the 1840s, market size was truly st…
Crush: The Triumph of California Wine
Wine—making it, drinking it, reading of it—can bring joy, and this book is meant to bring that,” writes the poet, lawyer, and vice president of the San Francisco Museum and Historical Society John Briscoe (p. 305). In Crush Briscoe attempts to tell a comprehensive story of the California wine industry from 1769 to the present. Within that narrative he focuses on the wine industry's “four devastating setbacks,” including (1) the phylloxera infesta…

Comment and Controversy
The Editors:In his review of my book, Paul Lukacs alleges that I “invent facts,” “distort” the story of American wine, and indulge in nothing more than “wishful thinking.”1 When I wrote the book, I did not expect accolades from anyone employed by the wine industry. Indeed, some of the chapters carry difficult messages regarding wine culture’s growth in America. But the seriousness of the charges that Lukacs lodges against the book do not carry an…
Simone Cinotto. The Italian American Table: Food, Family, and Community in New York City
Simone Cinotto's third book published in two years on Italian American culture details the Italian American food economy during the interwar years in New York City. As cultural historians might guess, since the 1890s Italian immigrants were “inventive creators rather than ... cultural conservatives” when it came to making, eating, and selling Italianità (p. 5). For example, at the turn of the twentieth century, there was no such thing as national…

Cultivation and Control: Grape Growing as Expansion in Nineteenth-century United States and Australia
This essay proposes that viticulture (growing grapes for wine) was an international set of colonial tactics for transforming landscapes and for propagating a worldview of cultivation and control in the nineteenth century. By virtue of propagating grapes, Americans and Australians sought to prove themselves and their landscapes as solidly located within the accepted Western narrative of world history which claimed that all powerful nations, since …
