This volume pretends in no way to the dimensions or erudition of a

cellar hook. It is a bar book and as such concerns itself with the

simple and essentially naive drinking habits of people in search

of comfort, refreshment and the uses of pleasant company rather

than the researches of oenophiles and the crafty cellar practices of

learned wine stewards.

Ten bottles of champagne are served at the Stork to every one

of claret, Burgundy, sauterne or Rhenish for the obvious reason

that the pleasures of champagne are immediate to every perceptive

sense and that it is a for-fun wine. George Saintsbury might not

approve the.drinking practices of the Cub Room hut he would most

assuredly have a good time following them.
