Herbert Myrick loved all things hop farming. Here, after a brief history of the hop from the 16th century onward, he provides a thorough breakdown of everything from the variety and chemistry of hops to selling the final product. Myrick has left no stone unturned. He explores the ideal soil and soil preparation and even the impact of caterpillars and fungi.


A talented writer and publisher, Myrick specialized in agriculture. He published and edited several agricultural magazines and authored a number of books on farming topics, covering crops such as turkeys, tobacco, sugar and corn.


This book is a superb read for any hop enthusiast or even experts interested in how hop farming has changed over the years.
