Alcohol has always been a major lubricant of the political process. Some - such as George Brown or Boris Yeltsin - have embraced the bottle too closely, while others - notably Winston Churchill - have consumed prodigious amounts and apparently governed better for it. The relationship between politics and alcohol is a complex yet fascinating one, and in a book rich with anecdotal detail as well as the findings of serious medical research, Ben Wright offers a timely examination of an issue too often evaded.
