Summary: A True Disappointment!
Review: I bought this book because I wanted a crash course in bartending. The ratings were so good, and I hadn't found a book that catored to my need, and so I ordered this one. I was very disappointed. It is somewhat informative and easy to read book, but it falls way short as a crash course in bartending. There is a lot of useless info such as where beverages are made, etc. and not enough info on important matters for the beginner who wants to become a bartender. I would not recommend this book; as a matter of fact I returned my copy.

Review: If you're looking for a book that will teach you the nuts and bolts of bartending - this one's for you! This book goes over in detail: pouring techniques, preparing drinks, a complete rundown on origin and taste of the various liquors, how beer is made and types of beer, how wine is made and types of wine, tapping kegs, customer service, cash handling...I could go on forever! I received the book a few days ago and was so impressed with the amount of information presented that I had to return and write this review! Lots of helpful tips and tricks that even an experienced bartender would find useful. If you're looking to buy a one guide book on the "Ins and Outs of Bartending" this book REALLY lives up to its name!

Summary: Good Book!
Review: This book gets straight to the point!...The "Street Smarts" of Bartending. Yeah, the Nuts and Bolts of Bartending. Refreshing to read a book that tells it like it is.
Bartending isn't just making drinks, remembering recipes, etc...There's Much more.
Finally a book that honestly speaks about the trade.
There's a difference between "tending bar" and "Bartending".
Apparently Lori Marcus is a Bartender...not just an Author.
It's clear that she's Been there and done it! It's obvious to any bartender who reads it. Very useful and informative.
If you're serious about being a bartender, then this book is a good addition to your library.
