Excerpt from Vines and Vine Culture

So long ago as the year 1873 we were induced to commence a series of short papers on Vines and Vine Culture for the pages of The Florist and Pomologist. Although appearing at distant and irregular intervals, these papers have, in the course of time, extended to some length; and inasmuch as they embrace certain matters pertaining to Grape-growing that had not before been introduced into any work specially devoted to the Viue, they have met with a considerable amount of notice and approval.

Thus encouraged, and having been repeatedly urged to have the whole re-published in such a form as to make it a comprehensive Guide or Text Book on Vine culture-primarily for the use of amateurs and young gardeners-we have at length consented to do so, in the hope that, despite its many imperfections and omissions, it may be the means of affording some useful aid to those who are interested in tho growth of Grapes.

Vines and Vine Culture, as it is now submitted to tire public, much exceeds in extent and variety the paper originally published in The Florist and Pomologist, many new chapters having been added, together with numerous plates and other illustrations. The portraits of the varieties of Grammis have been photographed from Nature directly on to the wood block by Mr. A E. Smith, and engraved with much skill by Mr. Worthington G. Smith.

The Vine has not hitherto been without its records, for many treatises, from the pens of the most experienced cultivators of the day, have from time to time appeared. These are entitled to the very greatest respect, as being records of successful practice in the management of the Vine, and the production of its fruit. Indeed, scarcely any gardening subject has been more ably or more copiously dealt with. It has been our endeavour to go a little beyond our predecessors in the same walk, and to treat of Vines and Grapes in all their various phases and characters; iu a won!, to provide a work on Vines that may at times prove useful to the skilled practitioner, as well as to the inexperienced amateur or the student.
