Moxy's Mixology Manual
[This book is a crass but very comprehensive guide to mixing drinks. There's a huge amount of virtue placed on gin-and-whiskey based drinks, and an equally larger amount of denigration of vodka, vermouth, and rum based drinks. Also, it advises mixologists (expert and budding alike) not to identify oneself as a mixology in conversation. Say you're a bartender, the text advises, or a cocktail maker if you must. Mixologist makes you sound like a pillock.]
