British wine expert Hugh Johnson described French-born wine merchant André Simon as "the charismatic leader of the English wine trade for almost all of the first half of the 20th century, and the grand old man of literate connoisseurship for a further 20 years". One of Simon's most voluminous works, Wines of the World covers in detail the wines of Europe, Africa, the Americas, Australia, and New Zealand.
