| Summary | "Manual of American Grape-Growing" by U. P. Hedrick is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book provides a comprehensive guide on grape cultivation, targeting both commercial and amateur grape-growers in North America. Its focus includes a variety of grapes, methods of grape-growing, and regional adaptations relevant to the American landscape, reflecting the importance of the grape industry during that period." "The opening of the manual presents a preface that underscores the significance of grape cultivation in American agriculture, noting the disproportionate attention it has received compared to other fruits. The author emphasizes the need for contemporary literature on grape-growing, considering the rapid developments in methods and increasing diversity of grape varieties. Hedrick expresses a dual focus in his manual: catering to the commercial industry and the amateur gardener, particularly highlighting several native and European grape varieties and their respective cultivation techniques across various U.S. regions."
