Product Description
Product Description
What English village would be complete without a country pub? No other nation has anything quite comparable to these cozy, convivial meeting places that are the heart of English social life. Some pubs have historical connections, others enjoy literary associations, and still more are famous simply for their own sake. Through delightful photographs and personal stories, the diversity of this cherished feature of Britain's rural landscape comes shining through. 9 7/8 X 7 1/2.

Format:Paperback
I really think this book shows best country pubs and inns (as title says) but I expected more information about each one, at least the address, even if I know it is not an advertisings book.
Astonishing pictures makes of it a real gem. A Britain's lover "must have".

Nice present for those who love travelling, beer and rural environment.
Will be of great help for a guest of the contry (like myself) who likes to drive along English country roads and stay for a pint and a bowl of soup in some picturesque pub or inn.
Each chapter is supplied with a piece of text with historical origins and overview of the specific pub type, and that completely satisfies my needs in comments for such book.
