The Ideal Bartender

This collection of drink receipts was writen by Tom Bollock in 1917. From the dedication of the book itself: to those who enjoy snug club rooms, that they may learn the art of preparing for themselves what is good. Is it any wonder that mankind stands open-mouthed before the bartender, considering the mysteries and marvels of an art that borders on magic? Recipes found in this book have been composed and collected, tried and tested, in a quarter-century of experience by Tom Bullock of the St. Louis country club.
