Bob,
Domestic meaning US or North American? I like the older ones from
Adams or Lichine or Schoonemaker but a lot has changed in the last 40
years. Most libraries have them.

Hugh Johhson, Oz Clark and Janice Robinson all are writing
contemporary books that have some nice info. If you have a Half Price
Books in your area they are usually swimming in books like this in the
food section and you can check them out before you buy. (I have the
one you mentioned too, it's a nice general overview.) I have at least
50, maybe closer to 100 wine related books. Tell me specifically what
you want to get out of it and I may be able to recommend something; I
travel a bit and check out used bookstores when I have extra time.
