Shake ‘em Up is one of few cocktail books of the time written by a woman. Of this Prohibition-era cocktail book, author Amy Stewart writes, " An essential addition to the library of any cocktailian, entertainer, nostalgic, or anyone who just likes to relax with a cold beverage, Shake 'Em Up! delivers all the joy of a Jazz Age cocktail party, without the fear of temperance officers knocking down your door."

Some soiling to cloth, else very good.
