Book Overview
A book by bartenders for bartenders.
Imagine a time capsule that can take you back to 1917; this book exhibits the drinking culture of pre-Prohibition America from over a hundred years ago. It is the very first cocktail book published by an African-American. Author Tom Bullock was a longtime working bartender and mixologist at the St. Louis Country Club, an establishment frequented by very high-profile men, such as former President Theodore Roosevelt and banker G.H. Walker, the maternal grandfather of President George H. W. Bush and great-grandfather of President George W. Bush. They attested to Tom's skill behind the bar. Now with the knowledge of a skillful master bestowed to us, there's no shortage of recipes one can concoct.
There has been a renaissance happening as of late in the world of cocktails. Bartenders are picking back up on the intricacies of mixology again to make higher-quality drinks. Take this opportunity to revisit 174 old-school classic recipes that have become new again in the digital age. This new definitive Centennial Edition features corrections and tasting notes from the editor Marc Antomattei and his bartender team.
