Lincoln Russell

Adventures in Burgundy (Hardcover, 168 pages). Pinot Press.

In his book Adventures in Burgundy, long time PRC member and BU alumni Lincoln Russell chronicles the culture and lifestyle characterized by the Burgundy region of eastern France. Known for its wine industry, Burgundy is portrayed as a place of beauty, hospitality and history. Adventures in Burgundy introduces the viewer to every aspect of this place and describes its overall cycles of existence.

Possessing an interest in wine since childhood, Russell has compiled a collection of photographs that both informs the viewer of the process of wine production, as well captures the essence of wine and the unconditional admiration that is characteristic of its makers. The photographs describe everything from the vineyards on which the grapes are grown, to the people who harvest them, to the cellars in which the wine is aged, to the people who enjoy the finished product. The attention to detail evident in the photographs provides deeper insight to the true nature of Burgundy. Adventures in Burgundy is an invitation to experience and enjoy the Burgundian way of life.
