Raoul Dufy's joyful watercolors and Gaston Derys' witty prose come together in this charming volume to extol the many joys and benefits of wine. First published in French in 1936, the book reflects the exuberance and élan of an earlier day, when a glass of wine was a frequent medicinal and therapeutic remedy.
