"Lets Bring Back: The Cocktail Edition is such good reading--it's a mix of cocktail lore, recipes, anecdotes, and quotations-that I think even a teetotaler would enjoy it." - The Paris Review "If you're gifting a drinker, not an eater (and one with a sense of humor to boot), we suggest this little tome, subtitled "A Compendium of Impish, Romantic, Amusing, and Occasionally Appalling Potations from Bygone Eras." Occasionally appalling? Sounds like fun to us." -Flavorwire "Most books on vintage cocktails stick to the tried-and-true classics, but a new one fights for the underdog.
