Jones' Complete Barguide

What you are about to read is the result of three years of research, research which involved the scouring of libraries for old newspapers and magazine articles as well as hundreds of books, some long out of print; visits and tours of plants and distilleries and continued correspondence with the leaders of the distilled spirits' industry throughout the world. The text covers the history and production methods of the various liquor types, the histories of the companies and their brands, the legend and lore of the drinks as well as the drink recipes themselves.
