Book excerpt: One part celebration, one part history, two parts manifesto, Bernard DeVoto's The Hour is a comic and unequivocal treatise on how and why we drink - properly. The Pulitzer Prize and National Book Awardwinning author turns his shrewd wit on the spirits and attitudes that cause his stomach to turn and his eyes to roll (Warning; this book is NOT for rum drinkers). DeVoto instructs his readers on how to drink like gentlemen and sheds new light on the simple joys of the cocktail hour. Daniel Handler's introduction to this reprint of the 1950s classic provides a humorous framework for the modern reader. Bernard DeVoto was an author, literary critic, and historian. In 1948, he won the Pulitzer Prize for Across the Wide Missouri, and in 1953 he won the National Book Award for The Course of Empire. From 1935 onward he wrote a regular column, The Easy Chair, for Harper's Magazine. He served as curator for the papers of Mark Twain, and gained popularity for his abridged version of the journals of Lewis and Clark. He was a champion of public lands and the conservation of natural resources, as well as an adamant defender of civil liberties.

Book excerpt: JAMES BEARD AWARD FINALIST • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY FOOD NETWORK Grab a light drink and a bite, and enjoy cocktail hour, the French way. For the French, the fleeting interlude between a long workday and the evening meal to come is not meant to be hectic or crazed. Instead, that time is a much needed chance to pause, take a breath, and reset with light drinks and snacks. Whether it's a quick affair before dashing out the door to your favorite Parisian bistro or a lead-up to a more lavish party, Apéritif is about kicking off the night, rousing the appetite, and doing so with the carefree spirit of connection and conviviality. Apéritif celebrates that easygoing lifestyle with simple yet stylish recipes for both classic and modern French apéritif-style cocktails, along with French-inspired bites and hors d'oeuvres. Keeping true to the apéritif tradition, you'll find cocktail recipes that use lighter, low-alcohol spirits, fortified wines, and bitter liqueurs. The impressive drinks have influences from both Old World and New, but are always low fuss and served barely embellished—an easy feat to pull off for the relaxed host at home. Apéritif also offers recipes for equally breezy bites, such as Radishes with Poppy Butter, Gougères, Ratatouille Dip, and Buckwheat-Sel Gris Crackers. For evenings that are all about ease and approachability without sacrificing style or flavor, Apéritif makes drinking and entertaining at home as effortless, fun, and effervescent as the offerings themselves Praise for Apéritif “With a dram of humor, Ms. Peppler provides a primer with the history and uses of various apéritifs.”—The New York Times, “19 Best Cookbooks of Fall 2018” “With witty and honest prose and stunning photography, this book is one to keep out on the coffee table (or bar cart).”—Food & Wine, “Best Cocktail Books of Fall 2018” “Step aside, Italian aperitivo. This book moves over into the equally stylish and luxurious territory of the French cocktail hour, providing recipes for classic and contemporary before-dinner French cocktails, along with light bites.”—Epicurious

Book Synopsis Cocktail Hour Meets...A Pandemic by : Andy Klausner
Download or read book Cocktail Hour Meets...A Pandemic written by Andy Klausner and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covid-19 turned the world upside down in a matter of weeks. Shelter-in-place, quaranting, staying-at-home left many of us not even knowing what day of the week it was. We needed something to add structure to the shapeless hours, a daily reminder that there is always a reason to celebrate. Why not welcome the evenings with Cocktail Hour? Borne from a Facebook challenge to concoct a different cocktail each day, Jeremy Cooper and Andy Klausner turned the early 50 days of their lockdown into this light-hearted journal. "Cocktail Hour Meets?a Pandemic" offers a back-of-the-napkin account of 50 cocktail recipes, some new and some edited classics (and some definitely better than others), alongside stories about their love of all things Drink, Eat, Travel, and Entertainment. (There is a lot of tequila?plus a spoiled cat.) While frequent get-togethers hosted in pre-Covid times were replaced with Zoom cocktail hours, and travel came from reminiscince, old photo albums and attempts to re-create some of the global cocktail and dining adventures that they have enjoyed since 1997, this work re-counts their journey.Andy and Jeremy are not mixologists, nor do they aspire to be. They prefer that this book - as well as their perfectly imperfect cocktails and photos - reflect the reality of the situation. Some days kind of sucked. Some days brought true joy. Many drinks brought back fond memories of once-in-a-lifetime adventures. But one thing was always certain: cocktail hour gave a reason to raise a glass during those seemingly endless days.If you buy the book (and you really should buy the book), you will laugh a bit and hopefully take away a recipe or two that you can make your own. Andy and Jeremy will even share food recipes upon request! Please note: a portion of all sales will be donated to CORE-a national non-profit that provides financial relief to food and beverage industry employees with children impacted by a health crisis, death or natural disaster.

Book Synopsis The Longest Cocktail Party by : Richard DiLello
Download or read book The Longest Cocktail Party written by Richard DiLello and published by Alfred Music. This book was released on 2014-11-05 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apple Records was a noble experiment created in the spirit of the 1960s by four musicians who came to represent everything that was best about those tumultuous, experimental, and liberating times. The Beatles started out with the greatest of intentions, but reality soon got in the way. Much has been written about this period in the history of The Beatles' evolution and dissolution---some of it true, some of it wildly exaggerated, but not much of it first-hand. The Longest Cocktail Party is a rare exception. Written by Richard DiLello, who served as Apple Record's "House Hippie" from 1968 to 1970, this unusual first-hand glimpse into The Beatles' empire humorously chronicles the stranger-than-life stories that were to become legendary, including visits by the Hell's Angels and endless tales of celebrity antics. Alfred Music is proud to offer this latest edition, which features a new and insightful foreword by the author. Originally published by Playboy Press in 1972, The Longest Cocktail Party has proven itself a timeless chronicle of this most colorful period in pop history.
