Description

As the authors say: Shake 'em up is "for people who fling parties, people who go to parties ... people who don't really drink but feel that a cocktail or two enlivens conversation ... in short, for the American People," and that's as true today as it was upon the book's original publication, in the twelfth year of Volstead, 1930. Virginia Elliott and Phil D. Stong created a handbook for polite -- if not entirely legal -- drinking during the height of Prohibition, but the advice remains sound, the voice charming, and the cocktails strong.
