This gorgeous book by Lisa Harris is true to its back-cover promise. “Strap in! You are about to embark upon an epic road trip in time, on a Wine Country journey where no one has gone before.” She has selected classic wine trucks from Sonoma and Napa wineries and told their stories in fascinating, well researched histories. This book is a gem for locals, and a great gift for those enchanted with the area.
