Book Description
This is truly unique among all cocktail books because the emphasis is on teaching how to design cocktails of any type: A revolutionary system that was developed over 15 years with professional experience as bartender and owner of one of the most prestigious cocktail bars in Scandinavia. Told with humorous stories, this is a fun read as well as being illustrated with more than 140 recipes never before published-plus another 40 recipes for liqueurs and cordials that can be made easily at home without distillation or any special equipment using a new approach. Also worth noting for Tiki enthusiasts, a blend of available rums that match the taste of a rare authentic sample of the Wray & Nephew 17 Year rum used by Trader Vic in his original Mai Tai. The 40 homemade liqueurs in this book provides the reader with an original "chemistry set" to explore new flavors, without having to invest thousands in countless bottles of exotic spirits that may only be used once or twice (which is a problem with many other cocktail books today). Whether you are a home cocktail enthusiast looking to step up your knowledge, or a seasoned professional, you are sure to find new information and ideas here that don't exist anywhere else. Not to mention many interesting historical notes and tales from his family's century in the liquor industry, going all the way back to the days of Prohibition.

Book Description
Even in the absence of a major war, the world remains a dangerous place. Fuses are lit in practically every region and on every continent, which could eventually ignite a global conflagration and draw the world’s superpowers into a deadly and catastrophic conflict. The U.S., Russia, and China all eye these regional conflicts with care—each hoping to use this turmoil to its advantage. Meanwhile, each of these countries attempts to avoid major direct intervention that would trigger their rivals into action. We are, perhaps, at the most dangerous moment since 1914, when similar smoldering conflicts led to the senseless mass slaughter known as World War I. In Cocktails from Hell, Col. Austin Bay provides a concise and indispensable guide to the most dangerous threats against peace facing the United States—and the world. An expert in military strategy, analysis, and planning, Bay uses his critical eye and sharp pen to bring each of these bubbling global situations into sharp focus, both in their local and global contexts. Civilian students of war and military experts alike will benefit from his knowledge and insights. If you truly want to understand the state of today’s society—and the role that the U.S. must play in order to successfully avoid the next Great War—this book is a must-read.
