Summary

Tom Bullock's 'The Ideal Bartender' is an influential work in the canon of culinary literature, specifically within the vibrant sphere of mixology. The book is a tableau of pre-Prohibition American cocktail culture, a tome carefully presenting a collection of indispensable recipes, expert techniques, and insights into the convivial art of drink crafting. Within its pages, engrossed readers will find not just the mechanics of mixological skill but also the subtle social interplay that defines a true bartending savant. The literary style is precise yet imbued with the warmth and charm of a bygone era, and the edition by DigiCat Publishing has upheld the reverence for Bullock's original work by ensuring the text is presented with both historical authenticity and contemporary accessibility.

Tom Bullock, the gentleman behind the mixology manifesto, was a heralded African-American bartender who transcended the racial boundaries of his time with his consummate skills behind the bar. Bullock's experiences and prestige in the hospitality industry during the early 20th century make this book an artifact of personal expertise, impassioned instruction, and cultural heritage. His authorial voice embodies the nuances and dedication of a committed artisan, offering sage bar advice that has aged as finely as the spirits he recommends.

'The Ideal Bartender' stands as an essential read for aficionados of cocktail history and practitioners of the bartending craft. This carefully curated edition is ideal for those seeking to reconnect with the foundational elements of mixology, as much a historical document as it is a practical guide. DigiCat Publishing's reissuing of this classic caters to the modern reader's appetite for both tradition and the finer points of hospitality and service. Bullock's work is a testament to the cultural tapestry of American society and an inspiration for the contemporary bartender seeking to evoke the spirit and expertise of a bygone golden age of cocktails.

    This book is for education leaders who do not accept that the underachievement of African American, Latino, Indigenous, low income and other vulnerable student groups is inevitable. Where Equity Lives is the result of 25 years of studying over 300 schools and districts struggling to overturn the longstanding pattern of under achievement of the same demographic groups. This book is a reveal of the five most common systemic inequity traps identified through the Study of Studies that help explain historic achievement patterns. The authors lay out achievable paths of possibilities for education leaders to reverse decades of under achievement. Actionable insights are shared through real-life stories of schools and districts that struggled with and took action to address each of these traps. Chapters contain equity hooks—easy to remember cues of complete, complex, and nuanced leadership takeaways. Online templates and supplemental materials are available for teams of leaders to apply the guidance from each chapter to your school system so that vulnerable students arrive at the spot where equity lives, that magnificent place where demographics no longer predict achievement.
