The New And Improved Illustrated Bartenders' Manual

Más información sobre el libro

First published in the 1860s, Harry Johnson's Bartenders' Manual is one of the oldest books of its kind. This version is a complete copy of the 1934 reprint. Johnson tells us about a time when it was obviously necessary to remind bartenders not to chew on a toothpick or a cigar when on a job interview, not to spit on the floor or indulge in other bad habits. He gives advice on how to attend a bar as well as how to treat patrons and employees, the correct way of handling wine bottles and beer casks. Furthermore he lists many cocktail recipes of the old time that have been popular in America and Europe. This book is a must have for all bartenders and those who are interested in drinks and bar culture.
