The Tender Bar - JR Moehringer

A memoir with booze and books, mainly booze. JR has a gift for storytelling, and for comedy too. A Yale graduate who could have lost his way by means of too many drinks. That is, you can get a lot of fun in the bar, make great friends and so on, but that will do no good for your career as a journalist. Fortunately for us all he quit drinking and kept on writing.
