The Sloe Gin Rickey

By Ambrose Heath and published in 1939 by Faber and Faber

Foreword

"This collection of divers drinks is offered for all those occasions when drinking is desirable: on a winter's evening by the fire, on the shady verge of the tennis court, at a party, in a pub; with friends, or aquaintances or those even dearer, wherever they may happen to be together: to the advancement of the brewer and the wine merchant, and the confusion of dull dogs"
