Title:Bottlescrew Days (1926, First Edition) is a convivial work of wine history and social commentary by Andre Simon that explores English wine drinking culture in the eighteenth century. Blending scholarship with anecdote and wit, Simon traces how wine shaped manners, politics, commerce, and sociability in Georgian England, drawing on tavern life, clubs, literature, and notable personalities. Rather than a technical treatise, the book celebrates wine as a civilizing pleasure and a lens through which to view everyday life, humor, and taste in the period. Bottlescrew Days reflects Simon’s talent for making historical research lively and accessible, offering readers both an affectionate portrait of the past and a spirited defense of wine as an essential part of cultural history.
