Pappyland: A Story of Family, Fine Bourbon, and the Things That Last Review: history weaving through family - I am fortunate enough to be from a family with an amazing past,present and hopefully future. The story of the Van Winkles contrasted with an extremely well told storyteller is totally enjoyable. My recent interest in Bourbon (we have some relatives that ran a speak easy) prompted me to read Pappyland. Now on to more written by their family. Review: Kentucky Bourbon at its finest. - The Pappy Van Winkle family embraced this author and I embraced their struggles and successes, with bourbon in hand, of course. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #30,913 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #6 in Whiskey #12 in Alcoholic Spirits #30 in Culinary Biographies & Memoirs | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (3,826) | | Dimensions | 5.75 x 0.98 x 8.54 inches | | Edition | Later prt. | | ISBN-10 | 0735221251 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0735221253 | | Item Weight | 14.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | November 10, 2020 | | Publisher | Penguin Press | ## Images ![Pappyland: A Story of Family, Fine Bourbon, and the Things That Last - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91LGI-wXXvL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ history weaving through family *by W***H on July 4, 2025* I am fortunate enough to be from a family with an amazing past,present and hopefully future. The story of the Van Winkles contrasted with an extremely well told storyteller is totally enjoyable. My recent interest in Bourbon (we have some relatives that ran a speak easy) prompted me to read Pappyland. Now on to more written by their family. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kentucky Bourbon at its finest. *by K***N on January 26, 2026* The Pappy Van Winkle family embraced this author and I embraced their struggles and successes, with bourbon in hand, of course. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Stories: Classic Southern Storytelling *by S***G on August 11, 2021* If I were able, I'd give this a 4.5 star. Great story on the Van Winkle family; on whiskey; and I appreciated Wright's weaving his own story into it. That's how the story evolved. But the overall story of the south, whiskey, and the Van Winkle family history was exceptional. The only complaint I would have, and only legitimate one (the rest are overblown, imo), is that in an attempt to jump around and not make the story a simple straight narrative (which is not as entertaining in today's storytelling world) some of the stories were disjointed with some esoteric elements in the story, to the point that trying to follow could be confusing here and there. Some parts and people were introduced so subtly, then later re-introduced, that it created a more confusing element. Otherwise, great book and a great wordsmith. The insights into the problems of the whiskey industry (which perhaps may be a reason behind some dislike of this book) were eye-opening. Lastly, to speak to the complaints about politics. This is a massive over-reaction. This is not a political book nor is it laced with political elements as it appears to be from many of the reviews. It strikes me as a product of an overly sensitive environment. There were hardly any political elements and a minuscule reference to the former president that is blown out of proportion. There were a few and only brief references to the problematic issues of southern heritage; one which has both great tradition (which Wright touched on) and the dark spot of Jim Crow over past generations. If we are denying that element of past generations in the south and its impact - again, only touched on for a few seconds here and there, then not much more to say; other than such are a product of being overly sensitive and reading too much into the book. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pappyland: A Story of Family, Fine Bourbon, and the Things That Last - The Barn: The Secret History of a Murder in Mississippi - The Cost of These Dreams: Sports Stories and Other Serious Business --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/195217295-pappyland-a-story-of-family-fine-bourbon-and-the-things](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/195217295-pappyland-a-story-of-family-fine-bourbon-and-the-things) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
