FYI- There is a recently published a book titled "Rushing The Growler"
which is a history of drinking and brewing in Buffalo, NY which some have
said was the "Saloon Capitol of the World." This of course is arguable, but
makes an interesting point for discussion as to who had the highest per
captia pre-Prohibition saloon count. Buffalo at one point had a ratio of
1:84...

Please also note the book was published by a non-profit group and this is
