Description

Corban has become a household name in New Zealand since the start of the twentieth century. This book looks at the family's years of winemaking and shows how, against unbeleivable odds, a new industry was born. But in helping to change the taste of nation a migrant family also changed itself. That process is a major emphasis of the book.
