Here they were entertained by legendary American barman Harry Craddock, inventor of the White Lady and populariser of the Dry Martini. Originally published in , the Savoy Cocktail Book features 750 of Harry's most popular recipes. It is a fascinating record of the cocktails that set London alight at the time - and which are just as popular today.

Updated with a new introduction and recipes from The Savoy. The photographs represent the true condition of the book, it is unread and has been stored safely in a protected bookcase from new.
