Abstract
- This article discusses three books that examine the history of wine in different regions and its connection to imperialism and colonization. "Imperial Wine" explores the role of the British Empire in the wine industry of its settler-colonial lands. "Whites and Reds" delves into the history of wine production and consumption in Russia and the Soviet Union, highlighting the emergence of Soviet wine nationalism. "The Blood of the Colony" focuses on the wine industry in French Algeria and its impact on economic inequality. These books provide valuable insights into the cultural and economic aspects of wine production and consumption. The article also mentions a researcher's recent study on the relationship between First Nations and settler colonial wine grape cultivation, as well as their ongoing project on the history of Australia from an environmental perspective. This information may be of interest to library patrons researching Indigenous history, colonialism, and environmental history. [Extracted from the article]
