About the Book
Bibliography of Publications by the Faculty, Staff, and Students of the University of California, 1876-1980, on Grapes, Wines, and Related Subjects provides an extensive and meticulously researched checklist that highlights over 3,200 publications from one of the world’s leading institutions in viticulture and enology. This bibliography is a testament to the University of California's longstanding commitment to advancing the science of grapes and wine, tracing the origins of systematic research back to 1880 when Eugene Woldemar Hilgard began his pioneering work on California viticulture.
From addressing the devastating effects of phylloxera in Sonoma County to influencing viticultural legislation, Hilgard laid the foundation for UC’s role in the development of the state’s wine industry. The University’s research has since spanned decades, continuing through challenging periods like Prohibition, and has established California as a global leader in the field. This comprehensive resource serves as an invaluable tool for researchers, historians, and wine enthusiasts who seek to explore the extensive contributions of UC faculty, staff, and students to the grape and wine industries.
With contributions from multiple campuses and departments, this bibliography underscores the University’s vital role in both local and global enology and viticulture, making it an essential reference for anyone interested in the academic and scientific advancements behind one of California’s most iconic industries.
This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1986.
