Gin is a global alcoholic drink that has polarised opinion like no
other, and its history has been a roller coaster, alternating
between being immensely popular and utterly unfashionable. _The
Weird and Wonderful Story of Gin_ explores the exciting,
interesting and downright curious aspects of the drink, with crime,
murder, poisons, fires, dramatic accidents, artists, legends and
disasters all playing a part. These dark themes are also frequently
used to promote brands and drinks. Did you know that the Filipinos
are the world's biggest gin drinkers? And even that Jack the
Ripper, Al Capone and the Krays all have their place in the history
of gin? Not to mention Sir Winston Churchill, Noel Coward, Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle and James Bond!
