Reviews
"A charmingly assembled, lovely little package that many people will find an essential addition to their shelves. ... It's a specialty item. But it's both informative and useful: it gives nice little histories of each drink and is well organized and very handsomely designed. ... If you're someone who takes your booze at all seriously--in the sense of, when you want a drink, you want it to be a good, solid, season-appropriate drink--then this is a book you will enjoy tremendously. This is a book for people who don't need their booze hidden under frills or umbrellas or tricks to make it so you don't know you're drinking alcohol. And if you're a sucker for John Held drawings, so much the better." -- New Haven Review "A swell new book ... clever ...
