  • This New Book Will Take You Around the World in Eighty Wines
    / Lifestyle / #LitLife OCT 24, 2017 @ 06:30 AM 979 This New Book Will Take You Around The World In Eighty Wines Tom Mullen, CONTRIBUTOR FULL BIO Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. TWEET THIS What differentiates this book is the constant inclusion of factual anecdotes from unexpected locations. Credit: Rowman & Littlefield Mike Veseth's latest wine book will be released in November What we crave between covers of a book is transportation. We want to visit— vicariously—lifestyles, emotions, times, cultures, stories and situations that differ from those we are familiar with. Through reading, we can taste meals never eaten or savor wines not yet swallowed. A satisfying book transports readers; a memorable book also transforms them. When published in 1873, the book Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne took readers on a trip around the globe, based on a wager the protagonist made regarding the duration of the journey. Adventures included traveling by elephant, saving a young Asian woman from murder and riding a train across North American plains while under attack. A new book will be released this November titled Around the World in Eighty Wines: Exploring Wine One Country at a Time. This non-fiction work takes readers on a rapid, engaging skip and skim around the globe—highlighting the diversity of wines now produced across the planet. Written by Mike Veseth and published by Rowman & Littlefield, this is an entertaining smatter of the eclectic, a trove of stories and facts not found in other books about wine. Veseth is author of several books about wine, and also publishes the Wine Economist blog.
