That author, Bill Yenne, put out a handful of beer books - lots of nice photos - some of them reprinted in numerous of his books - but his histories of some breweries was sadly lacking. Without checking the books, IIRC, he got Genesee Brewing Co. confused with the General Brewing Corp., he confused General's name changes - to Lucky Lager Brewing Co. and then back to General - as selling out to those companies and there was also some incorrect info on Rheingold buying the Jacob Ruppert label (maybe he had it reversed?). He would also illustrate brewery histories with labels well out of chronology (say, using a Falstaff label w/UPC bar code for a history of P. Ballantine & Sons). All kind of annoying. But my favorite was that he took to illustrating some of his books with his own "drawings" of famous brewery founders which were obviously just traced from the photos in 100 Years of Brewing, such as the example below of George Ehret.
