The martini was and still is more than just a cocktail. Originally mixed in the nineteenth century, it became an American icon in the twentieth, and the favorite drink of such luminaries as Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, Jack London, and Ernest Hemingway. Bernard De Voto called the martini 'the supreme American gift to world culture,' while H. L. Mencken declared it 'the only American invention as perfect as a sonnet.' The first book of its kind to explore the drink's wide appeal, this volume serves up a fabulous cocktail of martini-inspired art, cartoons, collectibles, advertisements, and film stills that reveal how deeply this classic has permeated every aspect of American culture, from literature and film to politics and high society.

San Francisco Chronicle Books 1995 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Fine in Very Good dust jacket 0-8118-0717-7. A marvelous celebration of this most perfect of cocktails – "a nostalgic passport to another era...When women were either ladies or dames, when men wore hats, [and] when a deal was done on a handshake. " A winning mix of narrative (history, anecdote, lore, and recipes) and well-chosen illustrations of personalities, ads, barware, and scenes from memorable films. The illustrations alone speak of the profound effects of "martini culture" on American ideas of style, image, social position, and even character. Here are F. D. R. Drinking and smoking at the Mayflower Hotel, Sean Connery as James Bond pouring a martini in "Dr. No, " Bette Davis being consoled at a three-martini lunch by the young actor Ronald Reagan in "Dark Victory, " and, again, the incomparable Miss Davis holding a martini glass in "All About Eve. " An interesting tidbit: "James Carville [is] the only Clintonian who likes Martinis. " Black cloth boards with cover title and martini illustration in silver. Fine in very good price-clipped dust jacket.; Illustrated; 4to 11"-13" tall; 132 pages.
