Paging librarian Derek [help.gif] He is our resident book collector and has a ton of books about Port. Of course, the 5 Roy mention are a great start.

Mike,

Roy has given you a great top 5. As Andy has alluded to I have a bit of a problem saying no when it comes to buying books about port and wine. Please check out my website www.booksaboutport.com to see if you can find more interesting books to look out for :wink:
