I bought the book for my son for Christmas. He enjoys making mixed drinks so I thought this might be a good way to branch out a bit. There are some classics as well as others that I, in my 40’s, have yet to try. Each recipe is clear and to the point, along with the ingredients, and a small photo of what each drink looks like. There is also a section with basic terminology in the front. Aesthetically, the cover is a classic, Art Deco-ish Style and would look great behind a bar. It may not be as exhaustive as other books but it is a great reference for most drinks (especially considering the price). -Avidreader
