Reviews

Alcohol in the Early Modern Worlddelivers impressively on what its subtitle promises-a cultural history-but also far more. The eight authors deftly and expertly analyze the many ways in which alcohol flowed through early modern society, creating identities, sealing bonds of community, and lubricating social relations, political alliances, business deals, marriage contracts, and religious rites. * Mary Lindemann, Professor of History, University of Miami, USA * This illuminating, comprehensive study reveals alcohol's operations in multiple spheres of the early modern European and Atlantic worlds. B. Ann Tlusty's volume brings together an impressive group of scholars who illuminate, in chapters that span from production to regulation and from sociability to religion, the continuities and changes in alcohol culture across time. * Rebecca Lemon, Professor of English, University of Southern California, USA *
