What Did Uncle Harold Know?

Bartenders often say, "I should write a book!" They want to tell us what they've observed, overheard, and been told. The wisest ones want to tell us what they've learned. Bar customers teach bartenders. Bartenders influence customers' lives. The lessons can last a lifetime. Your life will be richer when you learn from both of them. This is a book of bartender experiences and observations, inspired by Harold Mitchell, the author's great-uncle, and known for his bar- tending presence at the original Copacabana in New York City and the original Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. Open this book to any page. Perhaps you will be moved by the portrayal of human nature. Perhaps you will laugh, recoil, and feel deeply about what you read.
