Whiskey writer Charles K. Cowdery, a Kentucky Colonel and Bourbon Hall of Fame member, traces American whiskey from its 17th-century roots to the present, separating fact from marketing myth along the way.
It covers how bourbon, rye, and Tennessee whiskey are made and how they differ, profiles the major producers and characters behind them, and closes with a 35-brand tasting guide.
