Bøger af George Winter

Kessinger Publishing is the place to find hundreds of thousands of rare and hard-to-find books with something of interest for everyone!

The recent cocktail renaissance has given rise to a quest for historically accurate cocktail recipes - and what could be more historic than the original cocktail recipe books, published more than a century ago? George Winter's collection, released in 1884, includes nineteenth-century versions of such classics as the Manhattan, the Mint Julep, and the Tom Collins, as well as less-familiar creations, such as the Hot Scotch Whiskey Sling and the Rum Sour. This facsimile edition, published as part of the Classic Cocktail Guides and Retro Bartender Books series, includes a resource section to help you find or recreate those hard-to-find cocktail ingredients.

This is a new release of the original 1948 edition.

Dr. George Winter was born in 1930 in Heatherdown, Alberta, Canada. His life began on a desperately poor farm surrounded by equally poor farm neighbours during the Great Depression.MEMORYSome old folks have memories vast For times that they enjoyedWith details of a laughing past Before they were employedTheir siblings who were sometimes there Recall events quite differentThey have to question when and where Arose a memory so magnificent.Leonard Cohen wrote: "Forget your perfect offering, There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in."Enjoy this work of Canadian poetry: scroll up and order today!
