Few places are as inviting as an English pub, and this beautiful book shows readers exactly why that is. As in their previous collaboration, Bookstores, Stuart Husband and Horst Friedrichs showcase the beauty and singularity of their subject matter. Gorgeous, expertly lit photographs of centuries-old snugs, elegant marble bartops, richly wood-paneled anterooms and pressed tin ceilings convey the warmth and deep tradition that’s kept these establishments going for nearly five hundred years. Snuggle into a curtained booth at the Boleyn Tavern; enjoy the gleaming copper-topped tables, stained-glass windows, and red Chesterfield-style seating of Whitelock’s Inn; or duck into the Dog and Duck―where George Orwell celebrated the publication of Animal Farm. Along the way readers will discover what makes an English pub the kind of place where you’ll want to linger for just one more pint, where you don’t mind standing cheek-to-jowl with the regulars, where conversation flows as freely as the ale. More than just a travel guide, this virtual pub crawl documents and memorializes an important and rapidly changing aspect of Britain’s national heritage.
