It's a system, a tool kit, a recipe book. Beginning with one irresistible idea--a complete home bar of just 12 key bottles--here's how to make more than 200 classic and unique mixed drinks, including sours, slings, toddies, and highballs, plus the perfect Martini, the perfect Manhattan, and the perfect Mint Julep.
It's a surprising guide--tequila didn't make the cut, and neither did bourbon, but genever did. And it's a literate guide--describing with great liveliness everything from the importance of vermouth and bitters (the "salt and pepper" of mixology) to the story of a punch bowl so big it was stirred by a boy in a rowboat.

Описание: A collection of interconnected short stories set in Michigan during the late 1960s. -- Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
Born in England to a middle class family, Geoffrey Bott excelled at school in most sports. A tenacious and unbridled drive to succeed that he didn't know would be required in order to survive later in life.
Armed with a degree in engineering from the University of Sheffield, Geoffrey moved to California to reap his American Dream.
Uphill is incredibly emotional, vivid and detailed about the rise and fall of a gifted and talented engineer. An innocuous knee injury playing rugby for his city would develop into a grim prognosis a few decades later. A month after rejecting a second groundbreaking knee rebuild procedure, his wife files for divorce and the life he had attained started to unravel.
The book takes the reader to a bar in soviet Russia, a brothel in Venezuela, a nightclub in Hong Kong, to Taipei, Tokyo, Vancouver Island, a casino in Las Vegas. It graphically describes thirteen left knee surgeries, screaming pain, addictions to mind-altering opioids, a precedent-setting divorce, a court file sealed from public records, a forest fire that destroyed his new neighbourhood, a night in jail, world's first scientific discoveries and cycling heroics deemed impossible that left the renowned medical profession speechless. This is a captivating page-turner that has it all and encapsulates the very essence of human suffering, courage, hope and determination.
An inspirational, entertaining and riveting story that will leave the reader stunned and emotionally drained.

Описание: -'Impossible to read these stories without amazement' THE SUNDAY TIMES. -Detailed day-to-day account of seven months Flying over the Western Front in the Royal Flying Corps in 1916. -One of the first memoirs ever published by an RFC airmen. Gone in war are the dash and charge and thunder of galloping horsemen, gone the flashing of naked sabres, the screams of stricken horses, the swooping down upon supply train or camp of the grey horse troop. Here comes the 'Cavalry of the Clouds' - the airmen of the Royal Flying Corps. Into the clouds they go, a dip, a swoop, a dizzy spiral, sometimes dodging shrapnel below the clouds, and sometimes eluding enemy machines above, until the German aircraft drops like a blazing comet into the lines, or until the precious information is safely delivered to headquarters. This is Alan Bott's memoir of his life with 70 Squadron, flying the Sopwith Strutter, a reconnaissance fighter, fitted with the RFC's first forward-firing synchronised machine gun at the dawn of aerial combat. Covering just seven months, June to December 1916, Bott details missions over the Western Front, including the Battle of the Somme, his three aerial victories and winning the Military Cross.
