A perfect gift for anyone who loves good liquor and high-proof prose: a collection of writings about drink from an authority.

'These books are so delicious they impart a kind of contact high; they make you feel as if you've just had the first sip of the planet's coldest, driest Martini' "New York Times Daily Review". *Also appeared in November Buyer's Notes*
