Step back in time to the candlelit taverns of 1776 and the years before as public historian Brooke Barbier examines the surprising role that alcohol played in shaping the nation! In her latest book, Cocked and Boozy: An Intoxicated History of the American Revolution, Barbier uncovers how a good pour influenced politics, relationships and the colonial economy. Pairing great stories with great libations, each chapter concludes with an eighteenth-century cocktail recipe, so thirsty readers can sip along. Join us at the Nassau Inn for an evening of unexpected history, storytelling and spirited sips!
