Guide élémentaire pour la fabrication du cidre et du poiré.Date de l'édition originale: 1889Connu dès l'Antiquité par des peuples tels que les Hébreux, les Égyptiens ou les Grecs, le cidre aurait fait son apparition en France au Moyen Âge, pour connaître un véritable essor grâce à l'invention du pressoir au XIIe siècle. Le poiré quant à lui, s'il est apparu à la même période, s'est répandu plus lentement, car plus diffi cile à produire en raison de la complexité de la culture de la poire. Boisson populaire, autrefois appelé « vin de pomme ', le cidre, s'il demeure emblématique de la Bretagne et de la Normandie, est aujourd'hui produit et consommé dans de nombreuses régions en France.Passionné d'agriculture, P.-J. Lefèvre entend participer à la transmission d'un savoir ancestral, celui de la culture du pommier et du poirier en vue de la confection du cidre et du poiré, savoir qui appartient tant à la richesse de notre patrimoine qu'à celle de notre terroir. Il ne peut cependant que constater et déplorer le manque de méthode et de résultat, le cidre familial et artisanal étant selon lui le plus souvent comparable à un mauvais vinaigre « qui occasionne fréquemment à ceux qui en font un usage continuel des maux d'estomac et des douleurs d'entrailles dont ils ne soupçonnent pas la cause '. Ancien instituteur, P.-J. Lefèvre a donc conçu un ouvrage didactique, simple et accessible. Ce Guide élémentaire et pratique pour la fabrication du cidre et du poiré se présente en deux parties. La première expose de façon claire et concise les procédés de fabrication du cidre et du poiré. La seconde est quant à elle dédiée à la culture du pommier et du poirier, et s'accompagne d'une liste des espèces de pommes et de poires les mieux adaptées à la fabrication de ces breuvages de tradition. Ses travaux, résultats d'un savoir-faire forgé par l'expérience et enrichi par les conseils d'artisans, transmettent toute la volonté chère à l'auteur de permettre à tous de produire un cidre ou un poiré de bonne qualité. Encouragé par les associations scientifiques de l'époque dans la réalisation de cet ouvrage, P.-J. Lefèvre a vu son travail récompensé par la médaille de vermeil lors de l'Exposition maritime du Havre.Ce livre, réimprimé en fac-similé par Hachette-BnF, est identique à la publicationoriginale de 1889 conservée à la Bibliothèque nationale de France.

The author of "Free the Tipple" is back with another collection of delectable cocktails-this time a literary mix inspired by the world's most iconic women writers. The 50 recipes in this volume are as unconventional, imaginative, and refreshing as the authors that inspired them. Each double-page spread includes an illustration of one important woman writer along with fascinating background about her oeuvre, personality, and points of literary distinction. And, of course, each profile is paired with a delicious recipe for a fitting cocktail. Pulling from every category-literary and genre fiction, poetry, graphic novels, essays and nonfiction-this book offers some surprising twists as well as old favorites. And while each subject could provide hours of cocktail chatter, the recipes themselves are also a unique conversation starter: the Virginia Woolf-a peach-and-mint creation with a modernist flair; the Octavia Butler-an uncompromising blend featuring bourbon and port; the Jia Tolentino-a purple sparkler that puts a cerebral twist on pop culture; and the Mary Shelley-an unexpected combination of the Manhattan and the Margarita. Perfect for literary-themed parties as well as intimate gatherings, this book itself is an intoxicating, lip-loosening brew made of equal parts sophistication and fun.
From Terrain to Brain is about how the many sciences that apply to making and enjoying wine are tools for exploring and making wine more interesting, not a set of facts to memorize. Rather than comprehensively reporting on a topic, each chapter leads readers through a "foray" or journey, beginning with a common wine concern and traveling through science, culture, tradition, and taste. Throughout, From Terrain to Brain emphasizes that wine science and wine culture are connected and complementary, placing scientific research in social and historical context.
