Regular price $21.99 Sale price $11.00 Save 50%Like much of the nation in 1898, Scioto County, Ohio, burned with war fever. In their zeal to liberate Cubans from Spanish oppression, the communities rallied around its small National Guard company, Company H. Local papers ran constant updates from "the boys,'? who found themselves liberating Puerto Rico. The home front buzzed with activity, as church groups, civic clubs and individuals shipped care packages to the soldiers. The community went wild upon their return seven months later. Parades, dedications and honorifics of every sort proclaimed that the sacrifices of community and soldiers would never be forgotten. But they were. Local history buff John McHenry brings to light the struggles and triumphs of the county during this oft-overlooked conflict.

Wine and Cincinnati were once a perfect pairing. So much so that the "Queen City'? nickname was inspired by Sparkling Catawba Wine, the delectable libation that sparked the Catawba Craze of the mid-1800s. Longworth's Golden Wedding Sparkling Catawba was most celebrated, but Werk's Golden Eagle and Red Cross, Corneau's Cornucopia, Thompson's Hillside, Bogen's Diamond, Mottier's National Premium, and Schumann's Queen Victoria bolstered the city's reputation as the American Rhineland. These winemakers passed their knowledge onto Lake Erie, the New York Finger Lakes, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and California. Today, that knowledge has returned home, as Henke, Skeleton Root, Meier, and Vinoklet hope to make the city a wine haven again.
Food historian Dann Woellert leads a tour through Cincy's storied past and promising future with the grape and the vine.Historic Taverns and Tea Rooms of Maine
