Originally published in London in the 1900s, this book is not intended as a "bar-tender's guide." It is an easy guide to popular mixed drinks to be made at home. By following the recipes and directions given, it is hoped that any gentleman will be able to provide his friends with most of the standard beverages, mixed in an acceptable manner.
For the use of those who have not been in the habit of handling wines, some hints are given concerning the care, the serving, and the combining of the various kinds, so that the qualities of a good dinner will not be marred by an injudicious disposition of the liquids.
