Lavishly illustrated with old photographs, postcards and promotional advertisements Dorset Pubs and Breweries highlights and records the events and changes that have occurred within Dorset's brewing industry. It also offers the reader a valuable insight into not only the industry itself but also into the lives of the people who worked within it. Photos of well known breweries, of many smaller breweries, of pubs, the workers, the owners and transport all feature here, as do images of related labels, beer-mats and advertising signs. Dorset Pubs and Breweries is an absorbing record of a bygone age and is sure to delight anyone with an interest in brewing and its history.

Tim Edgell must have put an incredible, but no doubt very enjoyable, amount of time, effort, and passion into getting this fabulous book together.
If you live in Dorset, you will find it fascinating, with many of the premises long gone, but captured forever, (thank goodness), within these pages.
The illustrations are in black and white, and due to their age, may not have had the luxury of colour photographs within their history. But the photos are superb, as are the descriptions and text throughout.
A superb testament to many pubs and breweries still operating, and a welcome place for those gone to find a home in Dorset history before they are forgotten.
