Casa editrice: DigiCat

Sinossi

Tom Bullock's 'The Ideal Bartender' is an influential work in the canon of culinary literature, specifically within the vibrant sphere of mixology. The book is a tableau of pre-Prohibition American cocktail culture, a tome carefully presenting a collection of indispensable recipes, expert techniques, and insights into the convivial art of drink crafting. Within its pages, engrossed readers will find not just the mechanics of mixological skill but also the subtle social interplay that defines a true bartending savant. The literary style is precise yet imbued with the warmth and charm of a bygone era, and the edition by DigiCat Publishing has upheld the reverence for Bullock's original work by ensuring the text is presented with both historical authenticity and contemporary accessibility.

Tom Bullock, the gentleman behind the mixology manifesto, was a heralded African-American bartender who transcended the racial boundaries of his time with his consummate skills behind the bar. Bullock's experiences and prestige in the hospitality industry during the early 20th century make this book an artifact of personal expertise, impassioned instruction, and cultural heritage. His authorial voice embodies the nuances and dedication of a committed artisan, offering sage bar advice that has aged as finely as the spirits he recommends.

'The Ideal Bartender' stands as an essential read for aficionados of cocktail history and practitioners of the bartending craft. This carefully curated edition is ideal for those seeking to reconnect with the foundational elements of mixology, as much a historical document as it is a practical guide. DigiCat Publishing's reissuing of this classic caters to the modern reader's appetite for both tradition and the finer points of hospitality and service. Bullock's work is a testament to the cultural tapestry of American society and an inspiration for the contemporary bartender seeking to evoke the spirit and expertise of a bygone golden age of cocktails.

Lawfare

Geoffrey Robertson

How Russians, the Rich and the Government Try to Prevent Free Speech and How to Stop Them.
‘ESSENTIAL’ Amal Clooney
‘AUTHORITATIVE’ Sir Geoffrey Bindman KC
‘IMPORTANT ’Baroness Helena Kennedy KC
‘COULD HARDLY BE MORE TIMELY’ Alan Rusbridger
The British tradition of “free speech” is a myth. From the middle ages to the present, the law of defamation has worked to cover up misbehaviour by the rich and powerful, whose legal mercenaries intimidate investigative journalists.
Now a new terror has been added through misguided judicial development of the laws of privacy, breach of confidence and data protection, to suppress the reporting of truths of public importance to tell.
Drawing upon the author’s unparalleled experience of defending journalists and editors in English and Commonwealth courtrooms over the past half-century, the book describes the hidden world of lawfare, in which authors struggle against unfair rules that put them always on the defensive and against a costs burden that runs to millions. Law schools do not teach freedom of speech and judges in the Supreme Court do not understand it.
This book identifies and advocates the reforms that will be necessary before Britain can truly boast that it is a land of free speech, rather than a place where free speech can come very expensive.
Robertson's latest exploration into media censorship is a political exposé of the new forms of litigation. His best work yet, it is a must-read for anyone interested in the fight for free speech.
For fans of Anne Applebaum (Autocracy, Inc), Mariana Mazzucato (The Big Con), Ian Dunt (How Westminster Works . . . and Why It Doesn't), Bob Woodward (The Trump Tapes), and Oliver Bullough (The Last Man in Russia).
