The second book from The Lost Wines Degustation Society: A Postcard from the Pyrenees "is many things. It is a celebration. A celebration of the achievements of those who came before us; their good taste and their appreciation of the finer things that matter. It is a commiseration; a sadness that only a small sample of that which came before remains. A few lost wines, village squares; a few ghost ships and family stories. Some snippets of poetry and glimmers of culture. Only the postcards speak as loudly as ever in all their glory. It is a pride; holding in great stead the vision, commitment and assuredness with which our forebears conducted themselves, their business, their relationships. All our forebears from eastern Europe and the Pacific Islands and everywhere. A Postcard from the Pyrenees is a study of the past; but also of today."
