F. Scott Fitzgerald's delicious, heady, vintage collection On Booze–now in a fantastic gift edition, as easy to pick up as a cocktail
“First you take a drink,” F. Scott Fitzgerald once noted, “then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.” Fitzgerald wrote alcohol into almost every one of his stories. On Booze gathers debutantes and dandies, rowdy jazz musicians, lost children and ragtime riff-raff into an intoxicating collection taken from The Crack-up, The Jazz Age, and other works. On Booze portrays Fitzgerald's wild era in unforgettable aphorisms, quips, and other short selections of writings: roaring, rambunctious, and lush—with quite a hangover.

F. Scott Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1896, in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was educated at Princeton University and served in the United States Army during World War I. His first novel, This Side of Paradise (1920), was a national bestseller; Fitzgerald followed it with three more complete novels and hundreds of popular short stories. The Great Gatsby (1925), a timeless story of social class, race, and gender in America, remains his best-known work. Fitzgerald was living in Los Angeles, working on movie screenplays and a novel he called The Love of the Last Tycoon, when he died of a heart attack on December 21, 1941, at the age of 44.
