Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol | Iain Gately

Todays prompt is “festive drink”, I tried the Trader Joe‘s old fashioned mix and I have to face facts, I‘m just not much of of drinker 😝…I prefer sweets…like this Dole Whip Float at Disneyland. #festivephotochallenge #TeamGameSleighers #WinterGames2021

Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol | Iain Gately

#TBRtemptation post 4! This spirited history takes us from 10,000 BC to the present showing us how alcohol has been associated with celebration, friendship, & danger. It's been considered the cause & cure for all problems. IG scrutinizes various cultures' relationship with alcohol & individuals' as well, from presidents to barbarian horde leaders. It covers bacchanals, the gun craze, bootlegging, even drunk driving. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

teebe I have this book! I was reading it at the same time I was taking a class called the Social History of Alcohol. It's fascinating. 8y
