Krátky popis
London’s leading pub tour guide and host of the celebrated Liquid
History Tours guides readers off the beaten path and through the
doors of London's lesser known but most authentic pubs. Welcome to
the world of London’s finest backstreet boozers. It’s easy to
stumble into London iconic pubs.The ones where Shakespeare trod the
boards, or Dickens scribbled his next novel. What’s more difficult
and ultimately more rewarding, is finding that special pub that has
just the right vibe, the pub that’s tucked away from the maddening
crowds of tourists and noisy out-of- towners, that almost mystical
pub that you’ll want to return to on a rainy evening, or show off
to your friends. These are the hidden gems that Warland introduces
you to.Covering every corner of London from the city centre to its
outer limits and beyond, these watering holes are permeated by
personality and a passion for traditional hospitality. While the
interiors might not boast architectural wonders or famous artwork,
their unique qualities are brought to life through Horst
Friedrichs' stunning photography, which illuminates their character
and charm, their idiosyncratic hosts and patrons, the menus
scrawled on chalkboard, the proudly polished brass, worn leather
stools, and quirky artifacts. Warland is a delightfully engaging
companion, but the pubs are the stars of this invaluable book
that’s as informative as it is collectible.
