Writing this Hottie Cookbook for Men started years ago with the sole purpose of teaching guys that cooking a crowd-pleasing or intimate meal paired with appropriate beverages does not have to be a nightmare. Author Jan Wilmoth-Ostop, a farm girl from Wisconsin, remembers growing up with great food, but no money. Even when it seemed there was nothing in the fridge or on the shelves, the ladies in Jan's family could throw together amazing meals. As a young helper in the kitchen, Jan learned to work with a combination of very few ingredients to get restaurant-quality results. She presents very easy food and beverage pairings that don't involve hours shopping at grocery or liquor stores, yet will impress even the most discerning palates. With just five wisely chosen ingredients per recipe, you can prepare mouth-watering appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, side dishes, main dishes and desserts. Pair your food choice with an appropriate virgin or alcoholic beverage, and you've got the perfect combo. To set this cookbook apart from other five-ingredient cookbooks, Jan sought out her photographer friend, Lenda Schuehle from LJM Photography in Colorado Springs, Colorado (http://www.ljm-photography. com). Lenda photographed local ladies and shares her photos, meant to inspire and provide a little something different to ignite your creative culinary juices! Jan Wilmoth-Ostop is a clinical speech/language pathologist in Colorado Springs, Colorado. "From early childhood, I remember cooking and baking on our northern Wisconsin dairy farm. My family and extended family lived on adjacent farms, and as one unit, we spent harvesting days and nights butchering, canning and freezing for the winter days ahead."

Did you know that 2013 is the 80th anniversary of Harry Johnson's death in 1933? Did you know that 2013 is the 50th anniversary of Harry Craddock's death in 1963? Well, now you do. To properly celebrate the lives and the body of work that the two Harrys left as their legacy, cocktail detectives Miler and Brown present the amazing lives and turbulent lives that surround bar legends Harry John and Harry Craddock. Seen in a whole new light, the authors present the never-before-disclosed stories of of both men and some of the people that affected their lives and shared their experiences. Tribute and recipes created in their honour by some of the world's finest mixologists plus walking tours of Craddock's and Johnson's New York and London haunts complete this anniversary experience. Why a book about Johnson and Craddock? Why are these guys so important? Both of these gentlemen lived and worked in uncertain times. Their personal and professional existences were sculpted by extreme, world-changing events and the public attitudes that arose because of them. Johnson wrote, in 1888, the expanded edition of his Bartenders' Manual the first cocktail book that documented both a Martini and a Marguerite recipe. His volume was also the first to provide a detailed plan for opening, staffing, and operating a bar, one that is as viable today as it was over 125 years ago. His career was shaped and flourished just as state liquor laws and suffragettes pushed the USA toward temperance and prohibition. His personal life was marked by Americans' anti-German prejudices during the First World War. Yet he provided the industry with all the wisdom he gained from decades of experience dedicating himself to "running a good place." Craddock turned London on its cocktail ears when he took his post as head bartender in 1923 at the Savoy Hotel's American Bar. Compiler of the famed Savoy Cocktail Book, Craddock chronicled what was served to royalty, film stars, theatrical and literary greats, politicians, and captains of industry at this A-lister establishment. As one of the founders of the United Kingdom Bartenders Guild, forerunner to the International Bartenders Association, Craddock helped establish standards for service and drinks-making that elevated the profession. With The Deans of Drink: The Amazing Lives & Turbulent Times of Bar Legends Harry Johnson & Harry Craddock as Seen in a New Light, Miller and Brown set the record straight, quashing a number of long-held myths about these men and contributing another body of knowledge to the deeply fascinating history of the bartending profession-the men and women who oiled the wheels of politics, society, and civilization in general.

"Shaken not stirred," we have all heard the saying. It is part of what makes Ian Fleming's super spy James Bond so super. It is not the fact that he drinks martinis, it is how he drinks them that matters. Cocktails are about style and in today's complicated world of drink many of us need a lifestyle guide. 20 Years Behind Bars is that guide; part trade manual and part psychological introspective, it combines real life observations (by a real life bartender) with facts and information in an amusing and irreverent fashion. Take one part Mr. Boston's bartending guide, one part Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential, a dash of Steve Dublanica's Waiter Rant, combine and you have the pure entertainment that is 20 Years Behind Bars.
