(*NEW ARRIVAL*) (Cocktails) Kingsley Amis. On Drink

Illus. with line drawings by Nicolas Bentley. Jacket. First American Edition. NY: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, [1973].

Kingsley Amis was one of the great British masters of comic prose, and no subject was dearer to him than the art and practice of imbibing. Herein, he discusses the history of cocktails and wine, as well as his own relationship to them. Humorous illustrations by Nicolas Bentley accompany the recipes and reminiscences. 

Sunning to jacket spine, otherwise very good and bright.
