Award-Winning Guide to West Coast Wine Trails Wondrous days, curvy roads, and enticing wines. Candlelit dinners and starry nights in the comfort of a fine inn – all this awaits you in The Two-Lane Gourmet, latest touring book from best-selling author Tom Snyder, published by Macmillan / St. Martin’s Press. Tom not only guides you along shady lanes and through charming wine country villages, he takes time to mention how much of it came to be. And where there are tales to be told, he serves them up. Know where to find an aviation museum with its own vineyard? How about a San Francisco hotel atop Nob Hill, with a complimentary guest spa overlooking the city? Or a vineyard B&B with luxurious Italian bed linens and balcony views to match? It’s all here – and more. Wine critic Frank Prial, whose New York Times columns have influenced a generation, writes, "Damn, I wish I’d had Tom’s book when I first wandered through the wine country … Never did those two-lane roads sound more appealing." Ellen Crosby, author of the Wine Country Mystery series set in Virginia, including her latest book, The Chardonnay Charade, finds Tom’s guide to be "An unabashed sentimental journey along roads less traveled, written with warmth and wit." Join Tom for this idyllic ramble through three western states known for their warmth and hospitality. — Internationally honored as the "Best of the U.S." in the Wine Atlas/Tourism Book category for the 2007 Gourmand International Competition — At your bookseller or click below for direct online ordering at exceptional prices.
