"Cork Seals Well" explores the fascinating history and enduring importance of cork, revealing how this seemingly simple tree bark became essential for preserving wine and other bottled goods since the 1600s. By examining trade records and historical accounts, the book uncovers cork's dual role: a natural product deeply intertwined with global commerce and cultural traditions.

One intriguing aspect highlighted is how the rise of glass bottle production spurred the demand for reliable seals, leading to cork's widespread adoption. The book delves into both the historical evolution of cork production and the scientific properties that make it such an effective sealant. It argues that cork's sustainability has allowed it to remain relevant despite synthetic alternatives.

Structured to provide a comprehensive understanding, "Cork Seals Well" begins with cork's natural properties and early uses, progressing through the development of the cork industry, its impact on winemaking, and the environmental and economic challenges it faces today.

The book emphasizes the crucial intersection of environmental sustainability and human enterprise, showcasing responsible cork harvesting as a model for renewable resource management. By combining historical analysis, scientific insights, and economic data, it offers a holistic view, making this niche topic accessible to a broad audience interested in business history, environmental sustainability, and the history of food and drink.
