Publishers Text

Drinking is one of the world's oldest pleasures. Its praises have been sung by drinkers from Babe Ruth to Nikita Khruschev, Janis Joplin to Jack Nicholson. F. Scott Fitzgerald to John F. Kennedy. 100 Proof is an irreverent and hilarious look at drinking and the infamous characters whose adventures comprise its social history. It is a collection of unbelievable anecdotes, little-known historical facts, and useful tips and strategies for the modern drinker - altogether a wealth of social satire and clever comedy. This is the indispensable barstool companion that tells you everything you've ever wanted to know about:

  • The History of Hard Drink - from Babylon to Prohibition

  • Hangover Cures of the Rich and Famous

  • Booze Blue Laws from Coast to Coast

  • The Complete Alcohol Calorie Counter and Nutrition Guide

  • Advice from the World's Greatest Drinkers


100 Proof is the most scathing, rip-roaring fun you can have - while sober, of course.
