Rowan Books

The place for Christmas presents ! Just published "Cocktails & Kicktails" is perfect for that wayward nephew or for Dad who wants something more exciting than a G&T. Rowan Books is a family-run publishing house concentrating initially on works by family members. These include books about: Adventure, Animal Stories, China, Cocktails, Education, Maritime, Poetry and Scotland. Recent titles have included "A Rolling Stone" by Geordie Stewart, the youngest Briton to climb the Seven Summits. The latest publication is "Cocktails & Kicktails - Life-Saving Recipes and Rhymes to Lift Body and Soul". Inspired by a wonderfully witty poem by Ogden Nash called “A Drink With Something In It”, it contains twenty three cocktail recipes, each accompanied by amusing anecdotes, beautiful photographs, entertaining cartoons and a poem in the same style. Publication of the book coincides with the launch of “Shaker”, a downloadable interactive App with recipes for 400 cocktails and mocktails and lots of useful features to make your cocktail party go with a bang.
