The Modern Drunkard by Frank Kelly Rich
Attempting to deconstruct America's joyless obsession with sobriety, The Modern Drunkard offers today's befuddled drinkers a comprehensive and instructive manual on the delights of alcohol culture, how to be a good drunk, how to drink, and how to do it well. Through articles, anecdotes, cartoons, and illustrations pulled from our long and happy history of drinking alcohol, Frank Kelly Rich campaigns to revive the lost art of tippling and taps a deep vein of boozy lore and legend through the ages, uncovering etiquette and expertise from some of history's greatest guzzlers.Modern Drunkard Magazine, the voice of the recreational drinker, was founded and edited by Frank Kelly Rich. Rich has spent the most of his life soaking up lessons and libations in bars all across the world. He's also the writer and director of the booze noir film Nixing the Twist, as well as the author of four booze-noir action-adventure novels (Jack Strait, Bogeyman series, Gold Eagle Publishing).
