I have, and found right away that most of the drinks contain only around 3 oz. These are the smallest cocktails ever. If you double them up they are way too boozy. Maybe i just need smaller glasses.

Maybe the focus is intended to be really more on the bar and the background than on the drinks. As I said, it's not that I don't like the book - I think there are a lot of good things about it. It's just when I look at it in comparison to other books it seems a little light. Cate, I was thinking over this again this morning and I think the key may be in the name of the book.

That has always been one of my favorite parts of any recipe/cookbook. 96 recipes in 140 pages seems like plenty to me, but with the history and background in the book, that’s enough to put the book on my list.
