This text contains a comprehensive and concise cyclopaedia of wine, beer, cider, and spirits, with information on liqueurs, cocktails, cups, mixed drinks, soft drinks, and mineral waters. The eighth part of the 'Concise Encyclopedia of Gastronomy' series, this compendium includes detailed definitions, statistics, and historical information, and will be of considerable value to anyone with a personal or professional interest in drinks and cocktail making. Many antique books such as this are increasingly hard to find and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are proudly republishing this text here complete with a new introduction on cocktail and beverage making.
