The Convivial Cup

Alcohol has been with us in many forms for thousands of years and yet it remains one of the least understood of foods. Roger Welsch has his own particular take on alcohol (as he does on almost everything else) and in this book explores the history, technology, hazards, and joys of drink. If you don't agree this is one of the best reads of the year, then Roger suggests that you pour yourself another drink and try reading it again!
