Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Wiley J. Phillips, chairman of the National Committee on the White Slave Traffic, 1911 To Drink or Not to Drink is the classic enabler for anyone looking to soak up a bit of history as they mix any one of 100 authentic Prohibition-era cocktails. Spilling over with non-sequitur statistics without citations and unabashedly biased expert opinions of quacks and politicians, these arguments were all actually employed to sway people to or from the demon drink. But you shouldn't let the "facts" cloud your judgment; the liquor can do that all on its own.
Includes cocktail recipes.
