Hungry Planet: What the World Eats

Two years after this was awarded the James Beard Award in New York City, the compulsion overtook me.

The Tender Bar - A Memoir
by J. R. Moehringer
JR Moehringer's simple words drew me into the pages, as if through the door of that Tender Bar: "We went there for everything we needed. We went there when thirsty, of course, and when hungry, and when dead tired. We went there when happy, to celebrate, and when sad, to sulk..." Who could resist following JR Moehringer into the haven that was to teach him about life, accept him, bruise him, and lick his wounds?

The Ginger Man

Let us all join with Sebastian Dangerfield to rear up in horror at the abominable way in which society treats its antiheroes!

A Drinking Life: A Memoir
by Pete Hamill
In my quest for chronicles that detail the often entwined aspects of drink and journalism, I was delighted to discover Pete Hamill's candid tale, robust and surly - an account that carries the reader through his lushly-detailed memoirs that began in blue-collared Brooklyn. His tale is rich with the nostalgia of days long past - marbles and stickball, Milton Caniff, Captain America, and the city Athletic League. He details his own lack of connectedness with an alcoholic father he longed to love and vowed not to imitate, only to fall prey to the same lure of the bottle.
