Adventures on the Wine Route: A Wine Buyer's Tour of France by Kermit Lynch
Prose can get a bit purple for my tastes, but fascinating information on the beginnings of the natural-wine movement in the U.S. Important information on many of the great wine-growing reagions in France. Great character sketches as well. Definitely a bit dated (the book was published 20 years ago) so not all the information is accurate. You can find some traditional Beaujolais now and much of the Northern Rhone is developed for rather-expensive Syrahs for example.
