Inns of Sport
London Whitbread & Co 1949 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good Very Good
The dj is somewhat soiled, especially down the spine, slightly worn, with a one inch tear at the top of the front cover. A copy of the cover is available via e-mail on request. The book has 7 colour plates and numerous b&w illustrations. Sport is as much a part of the English character as the inn is of English life. They make the perfect union, being complementary to each other as good partners should be. For who would go fishing on a bright May morning when the river slides in sunlight over waving reeds and gravelly shallows, unless he hoped not merely to catch a fish, but to see the sun shine golden on beer most lucent at the midday hour? Who would play cricket on the village green under the elms of June if there were no Bat and Ball at the edge of that green to watch and welcome him? Can you imagine a better place for a meet of fox-hounds than The Fox and Hounds, or a pleasanter venue for a farmers' shooting party than The Rabbits? In these pages something is told of the history of those Inns of Sport which, in town and village, in remote country lane and on windy heath, are all part and parcel of the tradition of English life.

The brewing of British beer goes back to Saxon times. The principles of brewing are constant.amd although there are many kinds of beer - none bad, as we are told - the process is broadly speaking the same, although the ingredients differ. What this process is, and how the forces of nature are brought into play to evolve our national drink, is here told in simple language with just that touch of kindliness and humour so appropriate to its subject.

The dj is a bit soiled, especially down the spine, which is worn at either end. A copy of the cover is available via e-mail on request.The book has 7 colour plates and 38 b&w illustrations. Clubs have existed from very ancient times. The Greeks had them, the Romans had them. It may even be that other clubs besides those of wood and stone flourished in the Old Stone Age. But clubs as we know them today - your club and my club - are essentially English, Cockney institutions tracing their origins to the London of Shakespeare and Ben Jonson, Beaumont and Fletcher. For a time they were the exclusive preserves of the wise and witty, the rich and fashionable. Then ordinary plain men began to found clubs of their own, and evolved those clubs which now play so great a part in our national life - clubs of the people, run for the people and by the people.

A good clean copy of this book, which unfortunately has a previous owners name on the nameplate page, and five numbers to the top of page 3. Also, for some reason, someone has neatly drawn a little box around the tiny date of publication. A part from this, the book is very clean, the colours are bright, and it is not price clipped. The board corners are turning in slightly, there is one small bump to the top of the cover, and the top and bottom of the spine also have a slight curve. The red cover is bright and unmarked, as is the back. Internally and externally, the art work is wonderful.
