Good Book

This book, basically, gives step by step instructions on building a still at home and making your own whiskey. It gives ingredients and equipment needed. I am not a whiskey drinker, but my husband is. Thanks to the author, we should be producing our own before you know it.

OMG I love this guy. The reader, he's Mr. Wusskey. I think I may have to copyright "Wouskey" for my label. Or maybe I just did. Na na na boo boo. Oh wait, I guess he beat me to it?

Packed with information, but moves too fast

A great first step, but a little too much is shoved into a very short audiobook.
