Hemingway & Bailey's Bartending Guide to Great American Writers

Resumen del Libro

Libro Hemingway & Bailey's Bartending Guide to Great American Writers

In this entertaining homage to the golden age of the cocktail, illustrator Edward Hemingway and writer Mark Bailey present the best (and thirstiest) American writers, their favorite cocktails, true stories of their saucy escapades, and intoxicating excerpts from their literary works. It’s the perfect blend of classic cocktail recipes, literary history, and tales of the good old days of extravagant Martini lunches and delicious excess. When Algonquin Round Table legend Robert Benchley was asked if he knew that drinking was a slow death, Benchley took a sip of his cocktail and replied, “So who’s in a hurry?” Hunter S. Thompson took Muhammad Ali’s health tip to eat grapefruit every day; he just added liquor to the mix. Invited to a “come as you are” party, F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda, arrived in their pajamas ready for their cocktail of choice: a Gin Rickey. Forty-three classic American writers, forty-three authentic cocktail recipes, forty-three telling anecdotes about the high life, and forty-three samples of the best writing in literature –Hemingway & Bailey’s Bartending Guide to Great American Writers delivers straight-up fun.

Aquí no se describe ni a un «Austria menor», ni mucho menos a un «pasmao». Aquí se muestra la grandeza personal, la intimidad y la responsabilidad de un rey que tuvo que luchar por sobrevivir a un período...

Libro Carlos Slim. Retrato inédito

Hablar de Carlos Slim es referirse a una de las figuras clave de nuestro tiempo. De hecho, su nombre se ha convertido en sinónimo de éxito empresarial y poder económico.

Ello en virtud del carácter...

Libro Noa Noa

When I saw her again later, I revised my first judgment. I fell under the spell of her "Maori charm." Notwithstanding all the intermixture, the Tahitian type was still very pure in her. And then the memory of her ancestor, the great chief Tati, gave her as well as her brother and all her family an appearance of truly imposing grandeur. She had the majestic sculptural form of her race, ample and at the same time gracious. The arms were like the two columns of a temple, simple, straight; and the whole bodily form with the long horizontal line of the shoulder, and the vast height terminating...
