Derry,
Looking in my documentation, I don't find anything on Winter or Winter
Dessert. However, from Beach's Apples of NY, Sutton Beauty is a synonym for
those 2 varieties:
Dumelow (also called Wellington), a yellow English cooker,
Sutton, a seedling of Hubbardston prior to 1850, orig. Mass.
By the way, and this may interest many readers of this list, I discovered a
very interesring Web site recently : www.abebooks.com
This site is on old books offered by hundreds of bookshops on the planet. I
was able to find and buy good copies of Beach's Apples of NY and of
Hedrick's Pears of NY, a truely magnificient book.
Try a search on author : Beach, title : apples - about 20 copies are
available.
