| Publisher Description: Ideal for whiskey enthusiasts and history buffs Distilleries are the new microbreweries, cropping up all over the West and producing brands that emulate the predecessors that were made in copper stills by emigrants and served in saloons and dance halls. This history of the spirit and its origins and migration explores the routes that American whiskey helped carve in the frontier. |
