Review: Drinking In America: A History

Drinking In America: A History Drinking In America: A History by Mark Edward Lender
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This really ought to be entitled "Not Drinking In America". Most of the book is about the rise of the temperance movement from before the Civil War through Prohibition and after the repeal even reverberations in AA and MADD... I was hoping to learn more about this history of bourbon (a paragraph here), how scotch got its aura, beer vs. wine, etc.
