Bourbon Empire

Short Review: narrow history books like this are fascinating to me. To people that are intimately familiar with an area, there is always far more nuance and subtlety than the outsider may assume.

Bourbon Empire is interesting in part because bourbon is so interested in communicating a story of history. That story is often exaggerated, or just made up. But the actual history of bourbon is fascinating, even if the stories on the bottles are not always particularly historical.
