A complete reproduction of the 1933 Jack's Manual with a new introduction by Ross Bolton.
This is one of the most comprehensive alcohol books written before World War II.
J.A. Grohusko wrote this book five times from 1908 to 1933. This man loved liquor in all forms and so this book was more an encyclopedia than simple cocktail guide.
In its over 230 pages Gohusko has covered Flips, Fizzes, Highballs, Juleps, Punches, Toddies, Toasts, and much more.
There are an estimate 1,000 different cocktail recipes here updated to this final known edition compiled by Grohusko.
Also of note is that these recipes were written in percentages, so that could be scalable to the glass, bowl, or barrel.
