This book is fantastic. So campy old-fashioned, I love it!
It even has a Tippling Tips chapter (how to achieve perfect results
in mixing drinks). There are great drink names like Atomic Bomb, By the Sea, Cholly Knickerbocker and Lucius Beebe's Russian Restorer. If you see this in a used book store pick it up, you will be entertained and add some memorable drinks to your bar repertoire.

I'd love to know Mr. Beebe's recipe. He was a famous bon vivant. Thanks for the visit today. (My site's down or I would've welcomed you more formally.)
