Five Hardcover Books, 6.5x9.5 inches (16.5x24 cm), various pagination. Illustrated with drawings and photographs. Originally published in a set of Seven Books for the "Course", this is for 5 of the seven. The books are:

Though lacking the volumes "2nd Course, Part A" and "3rd Course, Part B", each volume stands on its own and focuses on a specific area of the Sommelier's responsibilities.

CONDITION: The volumes were used by an Italian sommelier hopeful, there are notes on the endpapers, underlinings, highlightings and margin marks here and there, heavy on some pages; the covers have shelf rubs, some soiling, and a bit of spine and corner wear. Overall a used but solid set of these five volumes, with pages that are bright, clear and fully legible. Presentable, solid copies for that Italian speaking lover of wine in your heart or soul.

Become a MASTER OF WINE the ITALIAN WAY as taught by MASTER ITALIAN SOMMELIERS.
