Book Description
Mormons, Merlot & The Utah Liquor Monopoly was created to expose a tired system that's unfair and unjust, and run by a government incapable of recognizing the rights of its citizens. The book includes a narrative of the author's experiences with wine, winemakers, and selling wine in Utah, and about the realities of The Church of Latter-day Saint religion and its relation to controlling alcohol. Particular stories detail the unprofessional and inept dealings the author experienced with the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, the state's ridiculous liquor laws, the company he worked for, and eventually how it all went wrong. Finally, the book outlines how the state runs the business of selling alcohol in the most incompetent manner possible, while also proving they violate their own constitution by operating an illegal monopoly and separation of church/state principles and laws of the United States of America.

Throughout the entire book, vivid color photographs bring science to life, capturing the essence of human botanical knowledge and the beauty of the plant kingdom.

Pages : 306
Book Description
The remarkable untold story of France’s courageous, clever vinters who protected and rescued the country’s most treasured commodity from German plunder during World War II. "To be a Frenchman means to fight for your country and its wine." –Claude Terrail, owner, Restaurant La Tour d’Argent In 1940, France fell to the Nazis and almost immediately the German army began a campaign of pillaging one of the assets the French hold most dear: their wine. Like others in the French Resistance, winemakers mobilized to oppose their occupiers, but the tale of their extraordinary efforts has remained largely unknown–until now. This is the thrilling and harrowing story of the French wine producers who undertook ingenious, daring measures to save their cherished crops and bottles as the Germans closed in on them. Wine and War illuminates a compelling, little-known chapter of history, and stands as a tribute to extraordinary individuals who waged a battle that, in a very real way, saved the spirit of France.

Spiced
Author: John L. Graham
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781537280592
Category : Psychotropic drugs
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
How are salt, sugar, coffee, chocolate, alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, opioids, and cocaine alike? We know they offer little or no nutritional benefit, can be addictive, and may cause health problems. They also provide pleasure to the brain. But another similarity is often overlooked: these substances-which author John L. Graham refers to collectively as spices-are all pushed upon us by companies and producers that relentlessly market them. Given the potential dangers of these and other psychoactive substances, consumers may believe that their governments and public health policies would protect them. But as Graham reveals, regulations often do little to curb consumption; instead, interested businesses actively encourage overuse of their products and may pay off the politicians. While other authors have also addressed the history and health effects of spices, Graham is the first to examine the marketing and advertising techniques used to hook consumers. Through Spiced, Graham hopes to expose marketing's role in sustaining our addiction to sugar, tobacco, and other psychoactive substances and to then inspire a discussion of strategies for reining in that marketing. To get the conversation going, he offers seven cogent "prescriptions for change" that he believes could fix our broken health policy.
