Englishman Freddie Bowles was a doyen of early tourism and the developments of the hospitality industry in Kathmandu, Nepal. A familiar and colourful bartender at the Hotal Soaltee, he began a local character, arriving in Kathmandu in 1960 at the Coronation Hotel, where he oversaw a state banquet. This volume is a collection of his verse and rhymes together with recipes for many of the cocktails he developed.
