Tropical Standard

Tropical Standard, an excellent new cocktail book by my friends Garret Richard and Ben Schaffer, is out today! I had the honor of being an early reader of the manuscript back in 2021, and it’s great seeing their work out in the world!

Making Camp

Making Camp, by my good friend Martin Hogue, is out today. I edited several earlier incarnations of this project before Martin found a home for it with Princeton Architectural Press, and it’s amazing to see what it has become. Anyone with a love for old, idiosyncratic maps will be especially pleased by this book’s fantastic trove of imagery.
