A super-chic collection of 150 classic cocktail recipes created by one-time Vogue drinks expert and man about town, Henry McNulty.
Henry McNulty was born in 1913 to American parents. He began his career by reporting on international relations during World War Two, meanwhile beginning to gather observations on the drinking habits of different countries. Progressing to a career in drinks journalism, he came to be considered somewhat of an international expert on drinks and a cocktail aficionado. He was a frequent contributor to many publications including British Vogue, with whom he published this book in 1982 as the culmination of a successful and varied career in drinks journalism. Vogue is an internationally prestigious luxury brand with an estimated international readership of 12.5m. In 2012, Octopus began working with Condé Nast on British Vogue and GQ-branded books. To date, Octopus's collaboration with British Vogue has generated sales of 300,000 copies. Graham Palfrey-Rogers was an illustrator and artistic director, including for The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour.
