First published in 1977, his \n\u003ci\u003ePocket Wine Book\u003c\/i\u003e sells hundreds of thousands of copies a year. His winning formula of insight, critical appraisal of the world of wine, plus valuable vintage news and wine recommendations has been often-imitated but never bettered. With the publication of his first book, \n\u003ci\u003eWine\u003c\/i\u003e, Johnson established himself at the age of twenty-seven as the most refreshing and authoritative voice on the subject. During the past four decades he has written books that have become landmarks on the subject, including his classic \n\u003ci\u003eThe World Atlas of Wine, \u003c\/i\u003e co-authored with Jancis Robinson, his \n\u003ci\u003eWine Companion\u003c\/i\u003e, first published in 2003, \n\u003ci\u003eThe Story of Wine\u003c\/i\u003e and \n\u003ci\u003eHugh Johnson on Wine\u003c\/i\u003e.

With www.JancisRobinson.com (subscribers in nearly 100 countries) and her flock of Twitter followers, she is something of an online pioneer as a wine communicator. She makes frequent visits to the USA to stay ahead of the crowd and, in the early 1980s, was the first British journalist to take a serious interest in American wine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrief Description\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFew wine books can be called classic, but the first edition of The World Atlas of Wine made publishing history when it appeared in 1971. It is recognized by critics as the essential and most authoritative wine reference work available. This eighth edition will bring readers, both old and new, up to date with the world of wine. To reflect all the changes in the global wine scene over the past six years, the Atlas has grown in size to 416 pages and 22 new maps have been added to the wealth of superb cartography in the book. The text has been given a complete overhaul to address the topics of most vital interest to today's wine-growers and drinkers. With beautiful photography throughout, Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson, the world's most respected wine-writing duo, have once again joined forces to create a classic that no wine lover can afford to be without.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Quotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eWorld Atlas of Wine\u003c\/i\u003e is the single most important reference book on the shelf of any wine student.\"\u003c\/b\u003e-- \n\u003cb\u003eEric Asimov\u003c\/b\u003e, \n\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Quotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\"The most useful single volume on wine ever published...
