Makers & Shakers by Troy Hughes

Join Washington, D.C.-based author and producer of ardent spirits Troy Hughes on a historical romp through booze-infused tales about Black Americans. Discover the stories of pioneering Montana moonshiner Bertie Brown and the ill-fated partnership of Diddy and Diageo. Find out about Ripple, the national drink of Watts, and learn how cognac became the unofficial drink of Black America. From colorful characters like Cato Alexander, New York's first celebrity bartender, to sad and disturbing stories about Jack Daniel's heirs, Makers & Shakers has a little bit of everything for everyone.
