Tales From The Lands Of Nuts And Grapes by Charles Sellers (1888)

87F0623F-C938-4D27-9578-1B3E85B8584E-256

Written by the author of Oporto, Old and New, this is a series of tales and fables from Portuguese and Spanish folklore that the author asserts had rarely, if ever, been committed to print prior to him doing so.

The book is listed in various wine book bibliographies but, having scanned its pages, I am struggling to see why other than the author’s link to the port trade.
