Unfortunately my flu and/or cold arrived on Thursday night so I've yet to actually dive in and start exploring on account of not being able to smell or taste much of anything. It looks awesome under the Christmas tree however. With regards to the price of the book - I guess whether $40 is too much for a book of cocktail history and recipes is a subjective (nay, personal) matter. But knowing how much I've learned from and used Jeff's previous books, I never gave it a second thought. His body of work stands on its own merit. Hell I've bought Remixed 3 times and had 2 of those copies spiral bound because I use it so much. I really can't wait to dig into some of these potions, kevin
