Vino Italiano: The Regional Wines of Italy by Joseph Bastianich, ISBN 0609608487

Vino Italiano is the only comprehensive and authoritative American guide to the wines of Italy. It surveys the country's wine-producing regions; identifies key wine styles, producers, and vintages; and offers delicious regional recipes.

Nathan Stark had the usual poor boys hunger to make a million bucks before he was thirty. He figured all he had to do was go to Texas, pick up a cheap herd of longhorns and drive them back to the beef-starved prospecting camps of Montana. The trek would be 1,500 miles of raging rivers, bone-dry deserts and hostile Indians, but Stark was brutal and ambitious. He wasnt about to let these obstacles get in his way. He would destroy anything in his path on his road to prosperity. What Nathan Stark hadnt counted on was starting Montanas first range war.
