DeVoto on the cultural importance of the cocktail hour, and especially of the indigenous American products - bourbon, rye, and the dry martini.

This important book may well set out people on a new track- at the end of which lies tranquility of soul, newness of spirit, imprisoned in the violet twilight of each day- the cocktail hour.
