Illustrated Edition. Jerry Thomas (1830-1885) was an American
bartender. Due to his pioneering work in popularizing cocktails
across the United States, he is considered "the father of American
mixology." In addition to writing the seminal work on cocktails,
his creativity and showmanship established the image of the
bartender as a creative professional. As such, he was often
nicknamed "Professor" Jerry Thomas. In 1862, Thomas finished "The
Bar-Tender's Guide" (alternately titled "How to Mix Drinks or The
Bon-Vivant's Companion"), the first drink book ever published in
the United States. The book collected and codified what was then an
oral tradition of recipes from the early days of cocktails,
including some of his own creations; the guide laid down the
principles for formulating mixed drinks of all categories
In this eclectic novel aimed for adult readers, two gay men
navigate some unexpected trials in their fledgling relationship
when one of them takes off on an extraterrestrial contact
experience. After Andy Gage disappears from his San Francisco flat
in the early hours of a June morning in 1995, his boyfriend of
three months, Richard Lang, is frantic to find him. When his search
takes him to the slopes of Mount Shasta ten hours later, the
couples' mind boggling metaphysical multidimensional adventure
together is only the beginning. ...Andy Gage thought he knew who he
was. He knew he was an empath, too often in synch with and in tune
to the feelings of others. And because of it, he knew he had
difficulty recognizing and trusting his own feelings. Andy knew
there was more to All There Is than this three dimensional reality
we live in. He was a survivor: an outrageous and outraged gay man
in his late thirties who had fled his Midwestern upbringing in
Indiana and gay life in Chicago to start over in San Francisco. He
had lost a lover to AIDS. And though still HIV negative himself, he
was resisting Love in the form of the ardent advances of Richard
Lang. He knew the only happy endings were in the classic movies of
Hollywood's Golden Age that he loved and into which he escaped as
often as possible. He didn't suspect that he had a few wake up
calls coming. The story of Andy's awakenings takes place in 1995
San Francisco, it could have taken place yesterday, it could have
happened in any other place or time, but it didn't.
