Good luck finding it at that price today. Used copies fetch more than $50 on Amazon. After much patience I was able to nab mine off ebay for $20 shipped several months back. The bummer of the book is that the vast majority of cocktail recipes call for Lemon Hart JAMAICAN rum which I assume has been out of production for atleast 20 years now. Not sure what a suitable sub would be in those cases. I guess I should be doing some experimentation...
