A Proper Drink

This book seems it bypassed editing and went straight to print. It's a fascinating read, to be sure; but it's fraught with typos and is very often confusing in content.

The story jumps from one event and/or person to the next without warning and without context. While the author is obviously knowledgeable on the subject, he might have done well to co-write this with a better writer. The writing style is very stiff, purely relaying facts without a lot of flair.

I was quite looking forward to this book, but was sadly disappointed.
