Maybe the books referenced on this page has the information you are looking
for?
http://www.spiralfirestudio.com/images/Italianwhitevine.pdf
Another resource I found looking around the net, hoping to find the book for
you was the info below
Another wonderful source for white vine work is a book Called: "Pliny the
Elder, Historia Naturalis," published under the venue of
The Victoria & Albert Museum. It is by Joyce Irene Whalley, and the ISBN
is: 0-905209-21-4. This book was originally published in 1982
Hope this might be of some help.

Carletta,
Thank you for responding. I don't know the author. I only remember
the cover, and that the title said the book was about White Vine. Sorry.
It has been over 25 years since I saw that book, my friend is
deceased, and his wife has moved, possibly married again so there
would be a name change as well. I tried to find her some years ago,
but no luck, as my letter was returned with "No forwarding address."
stamped on it.
Any help you could provide would be wonderful. Sometimes I can track
down a book like I did one on Renaissance handwriting by Alfred
Fairbank, a man whom I met in the 1970's. He was a famous mundane
calligraphy teacher at the time. Maybe I can get another blessing
with this one? :- )
YIS,
Lete
