An excellent book that fills in the gaps in my general knowledge of booze.
The historical data is quite helpful in understanding how and why many of the spirits came into being, overall it makes my imbibing more pleasurable, knowing I am drinking in so much more than just the drink, but also the wealth of history behind whichever liquor I have in my glass. Highly recommended for the serious but careful drinker who wishes to be more responsible in his choice of drink. It has certainly widened my perception, and appreciation, of what I let pass my lips.

A £3 reduction when collected from the FBA shop. An original book from the library gathered by the famous Cambridge Don, computer scientist, food and wine connoisseur, Jack Arnold LANG. In 2008, Jack was one of the co-founders of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, alongside other members of the Department, and acted as the Foundation’s Chair. The project’s original goals were modest: to build and distribute low-cost computers for prospective applicants to our Computer Science degree. Initially the project was a “success disaster”, as Jack would say, as demand far outstripped the low-scale manufacturing plans. Ultimately the Raspberry Pi became the UK’s most successful computer with more than 60 million sold to date. Jack was drawn to the educational possibilities of the Raspberry Pi, its potential uses in emerging economies and the way it could support self-directed learning.
