Good morning!
I just wanted to share the jacket of Empire of Booze with you. I am sure you wil agree that it looks marvelous.

Publication date is 3rd November and you subscribers should receive finished copies before this date though not sure exactly when. Also subtitle will change to something like: How Britain Created the World's Finest Drinks, to better reflect the content of the book.
Will be in touch again soon. In the mean time, behold the magnificence:
