In 1968, the biggest passenger jet the world had ever seen
premiered in Everett, Washington. The giant plane was called the
Boeing 747, but reporters named it "the Jumbo jet." There was only
one problem. It couldn't fly. Yet. Jumbo details the story of the
world's first wide-body passenger jet, which could hold more people
than any other jet at the time. The Boeing 747 introduced new
technologies to the aviation industry and played a pivotal role in
middle class families affording travel overseas. With an innovative
design, the Jumbo jet took its first flight on January 22, 1970,
taking passengers from New York to Paris in seven hours.

crafted--just like its namesake--this is the ultimate bar book by
NYC's most meticulous bartender. To say that PDT is a unique bar is

mixmaster, is revolutionizing bar books, too, offering all 304
cocktail recipes available at PDT plus behind-the-scenes secrets.
From his bar design, tools, and equipment to his techniques, food,
and spirits, it's all here, stunningly illustrated by Chris Gall.
