'Excellent' - Susy Atkins, the Telegraph For everyone and anyone who wants to understand more about gin, this is the definitive guide - covering the best gins the world has to offer, history and production methods, and the countries that have helped make gin a global success story. Never has there been a more striking revolution in the world of distilled spirits than the current renaissance of gin. With small craft distilleries popping up all over the world, from Texas to Tasmania, more varieties and techniques being used than ever before, and a tapestry of tastes from light and citrusy to big bold savoury notes, gin's appeal is extraordinarily wide and varied. From gin made in small batches from local botanicals, through to large facilities which make some of the world's most recognized gin brands, World Atlas of Gin looks at everything from the botanical to the bottle: how and where botanicals are grown and harvested and their role within the flavour of gin; producers and the stories behind their brands; exactly where, and how, gins are made; and, country by country, the best examples to try. Global cocktails are covered too, including the history and country of origin of some of the best-known mixed gin drinks.

Filled with eye-catching images of 100 styles from around the globe, The World Atlas of Street Fashion is a celebration of those who dare to think differently. From the Chinese skinheads of Beijing to the feminist funkeiras of Sao Paolo, the raggare of Stockholm to the Junglists of Whistler, this is world street style as you've never seen it before. Street style exists to turn heads and create comment. The message can be one of resistance, subversion, musical affiliation, or a combination of all three. A group of likeminded individuals can create a powerful sartorial force, moving beyond fashion's mere billboards for the latest brands. Organised geographically by continent, this book examines street style in all its international diversity, by tracing the many and varied ways in which it has developed in different regions of the world. Written by acclaimed fashion historian Caroline Cox, The World Atlas of Street Fashion offers a ground-breaking portrait of world street style.
