It provides clear succinct facts and commentary on the wines, growers and wine regions of the whole world. It reveals which vintages to buy, which to drink and which to cellar, which growers to look for and why. Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Book gives clear information on grape varieties, local specialities and how to match food with wines that will bring out the best in both.

Poutavé čtení, jež sleduje dějiny vína od úsvitu civilizace přes nádheru bakchanálií antického světa až po dnešní dny. Tato publikace je všeobecně považována za klasiku v oboru literatury o víně. První vydání, jež vyšlo v roce 1989, bylo přeloženo do jedenácti jazyků a získalo řadu ocenění. Pro další vydání byl text zestručněn a zaktualizován, aby jednak obsahoval nejnovější poznatky vývoje ve světě vína, ale aby si současně zachoval veškeré vlastnosti, pro něž bylo první vydání oceňováno, tedy názornost a srozumitelnost. Výborný doplněk ke Světové ročence vín 2008, jež je dílem téhož autora.
