The full title of this work is The Comic Book Story of BEER, The World's Favorite Beverage from 7000 BC to Today's Craft Brewing Revolution. That pretty much says it all. The 170 pages of this comics history trace Beer from its roots in ancient antiquity, postulating a serendipitous origin, through to the ever more informed approach of the present, along the way charting the ever shifting relationship of Beers to their parant societies. Entertaining and educational, this is an ideal item for the comics reading beer drinker.
