Sinossi
Every war has its official history. This is the other one.
Spirits of Conflict uncovers the hidden stories of diplomacy, resistance, and survival by following twelve drinks that became intertwined with moments of global crisis. Rather than focusing on their preparation, the book examines how these beverages became symbols - of rebellion, of empire, of scientific ambition, or of the fragile celebrations that follow catastrophe.
The journey begins in colonial Boston, where rum punch fueled conversations that would ignite a revolution. It moves to the refined but tense halls of the Congress of Vienna, where Talleyrand used shared tables and social rituals to reshape Europe. It follows the British Empire's long reliance on tonic water as a health measure, the Royal Navy's centuries-long rum tradition, and the emotional weight carried by the day that tradition ended.
Later chapters explore the uneasy optimism of VE Day, where champagne cocktails marked victory shadowed by the dawn of the nuclear age, and a makeshift bar in Kabul where soldiers and diplomats gathered under a name borrowed from a Cold War drill. Even the Manhattan Project leaves its imprint on a drink whose structure reflects the contradictions of its time. Each chapter blends cultural memory with the realities of conflict, revealing how ordinary objects can absorb extraordinary history.
