Description

Wine, more than any other food or beverage, is intimately associated with religious experience and celebratory rituals.

Nowhere is this seen more clearly than in American cultural history.

From the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock to the Franciscans and Jesuits who pioneered California's Mission Trail, many American religious groups have required wine to perform their sacraments and enliven their evening meals.

This book tells the story of how viniculture in America was started and sustained by a broad spectrum of religious denominations.

In the process, it offers new insights into the special relationship between wine production and consumption and the spiritual dimension of human experience.
