Amazing author I had not heard of!

Dear American Airlines: A Novel
Jonathan Miles
Houghton Mifflin Co, 2008
Just exceptional
Written apparently by a specialist in reviews of New York City cocktails, "Dear American Airlines" is a book that recalls A.J. Liebling's comment that "wine drinking is more subjective than horse racing and nearly as subjective as love". This is a phenomenal book I ...
