Parsons, Brad Thomas. Bitters: A Spirited History of a Classic Cure-All, with Cocktails, Recipes, and Formulas. Photographs by Ed Anderson. Berkeley: Ten Speed Press, 2011. Supplied ebook-derived PDF, version 3.1, 443 pages. eISBN 9781607740728.
Every older-cocktail entry was read. Several explicitly change proportions, modifiers or service: Bijou moves away from equal parts, Martinez versions reverse the gin/vermouth balance, and Rob Roy invites comparison of bitters. Whiskey appears across bourbon, rye, Canadian and Scotch recipes, not just titles tagged American.
