This is exactly what it sounds like: instead of photos or illustrations, this cocktail book is fully illustrated with oil paintings.Featuring an all-star team, Cocktails - A Still Life is less of a bartending guide and more of a presentation piece attracting the eye, mind, and palate focused squarely on the art-including the dozens of luscious, hand-painted images. As they say, "We drink first with our eyes."

Contemporary still-life master Todd Casey has collected 60 paintings for 60 classic drink recipes, developed by Drinkology author James Waller, that are then paired with witty and imminently readable behind-the-bar anecdotes and histories by beverage historian Christine Sismondo.

Broken down into sections, inspired by times and events that call for a cocktail, the book includes art, recipes, and history.
