New Writing on Beer and Whisky in Honour of Michael Jackson
Leading international writers on beer and whisky have come together to celebrate the legacy of renowned drinks writer Michael Jackson, who passed away in August 2007 after battling Parkinson's disease. They each contributed new writings to a project launched on March 27, 2009, coinciding with Jackson's birth date. All proceeds from this publication, supported by The Glenlivet, will benefit the Parkinson's Disease Society of the UK. Editor Ian Buxton, who initiated the project, noted that Jackson significantly influenced beer and whisky writing for two decades, impacting a generation of writers, brewers, and distillers. This book pays tribute to that legacy, offering a diverse collection that celebrates the joy of whisky and beer. Buxton emphasizes that the writings reflect the variety Jackson cherished and are crafted in a way he would have appreciated. The contributors include notable figures in drinks writing, such as Stephen Beaumont, Dave Broom, Ian Buxton, John Hansell, Julie Johnson, Charles MacLean, Hans Offringa, F Paul Pacult, Roger Protz, Lucy Saunders, Conrad Seidl, Carolyn Smagalski, and Gavin D Smith. This collaboration is a heartfelt homage to a life well-lived and a passion for fine beverages.
