Literature

The foundation of bartending – historical books in times of the internet. Part 4: Literature in the 20th Century up to the Beginning of Prohibition (1900 – 1919)

Literature

With the Manhattan Cocktail, a development began that led to a golden age of bar culture. We separate this ongoing development into an early and a late period in 1900. On the one hand, Harry Johnson’s 2nd edition of the “New and Improved Bartender’s Manual” appeared in this year (we had let the “early period” begin with this in 1882). On the other hand, the early and late periods each cover 18 years, because the last important bar books before Prohibition were published until 1917. This golden age of bartending came to an abrupt end with the beginning of American Prohibition in 1920.

About

Hi, I'm Armin and in my spare time I want to promote bar culture as a blogger, freelance journalist and Bildungstrinker (you want to know what the latter is? Then check out "About us"). My focus is on researching the history of mixed drinks. If I have ever left out a source you know of, and you think it should be considered, I look forward to hearing about it from you to learn something new. English is not my first language, but I hope that the translated texts are easy to understand. If there is any incomprehensibility, please let me know so that I can improve it.

    Hi Armin & Frank!
    I cannot find the words to express how important your work has become for us seeking knowledge in our field, neither to thank you for that.
    Having said that, let me ask you a question that I guess has no answer yet but… Did you finally got a clue about the identity of that “Harry Montague”, co-author and author of “New Bartender’s Guide” (1913) and “The Up-To-Date Bartenders’ Guide” (1914) respectively?
    I couldn’t find any information about this person, I guess must be a nom de plume, but find very strange to see his name associated with that of the very well known Charles Mahoney.
    Thanks in advance for your kind reply
    Un abrazo from Argentina!

    • Hi Daniel,
      Thank you very much for your kind words. It’s always a pleasure to help you all to learn more about mixed drinks. It’s great to know that there are inquisitive bar friends all over the world.
      You’re right, I don’t have an answer to your question either. I couldn’t find anything about “Harry Montague”. Maybe it really is a pseudonym. But maybe one of our readers knows more and can help us learn more about it?
      Un abrazo from both of us back to Argentina!
