"Like the silvered mirrors, shadowy with time, that hang behind so many New Orleans bars, McCaffety's book reflects the city in all its drunk splendor, whether it's the golden light of a lazy afternoon or the swirling energy of a dance floor. McCaffety, like a good bartender, knows how to listen, knows how to look, and knows how to tell a great story. In perfectly chosen words and images [Obituary Cocktail] captures something timeless and essential about New Orleans."
-Susan Larson, New Orleans Times-Picayune

"The evocative photos of Napoleon House, Pat O'Brien's, Galatoire's, Tujague's, and many lesser known restaurants and bars in the Crescent City are as personal as they are a rich repository of architectural and Louisiana social history, with excellent accompanying text. A beautifully produced book by one of the great photojournalists of America."
-John Mariani, Esquire

"Kerri's work is lush with natural light that makes the images sensual and rich, and transforms the places she photographs into poems."
-Francis Ford Coppola
