"The Phylloxera of the Vine" is a vintage work by F. T. Bioletti that deals in detail with the eponymous pest of commercial grapevines, originally native to eastern North America. Frederic Theodore Bioletti (1865 - 1939) was an English-born American vintner. He studied at the University of California, Berkeley from 1889 to 1900, where he worked with prominent soil scientist Professor E.W. Hilgard. His work with Hilgard on the fermentation of wines under different conditions were significant in helping California vintners to refine their wine production practices and improving the resulting wines. Bioletti was the first chair of the Department of Viticulture and Enology and founded the grape breeding program at the University of California Agricultural Experiment Station. Contents include: "Historical", "The Insect", "Nature of Injury", "Methods of Disposal", "Methods of Combatting the Pest", "Carbon", "Submersion", "Planting in Sand", "Resisting Vines", "Direct Producers", "Resistant Shock", "Selection", "Adaptation", "Disinfection of Cuttings", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author and introduction on winemaking.
