Twenty Years Behind Bars: the Spirited Adventures of a Real Bartender Jeff Burkhart

?Shaken not stirred,? we have all heard the saying. It is part of what makes Ian Fleming?s super spy James Bond so super. It is not the fact that he drinks martinis, it is how he drinks them that matters. Cocktails are about style and in today?s complicated world of drink many of us need a lifestyle guide. 20 Years Behind Bars is that guide; part trade manual and part psychological introspective, it combines real life observations (by a real life bartender) with facts and information in an amusing and irreverent fashion. Take one part Mr. Boston?s bartending guide, one part Anthony Bourdain?s Kitchen Confidential, a dash of Steve Dublanica?s Waiter Rant, combine and you have the pure entertainment that is 20 Years Behind Bars.
