PRE-ISBN
From the inside front cover:
“Whether you are a one-drink-in-a-blue-moon man or a confirmed propper-up of bar counters, this sparkling account of pub life will delight and – possibly—startle you. It tells with vigorous humour of the trials that beset the publican in his dealings with brewers, staff, and with you, the customer. It reveals some intriguing Trade secrets and answers such teasing questions as: Why does beer taste better in one pub than in another? What happens to the drinks the customer stands the proprietor? As rich in entertainment as it is in pub lore, this will appeal to you whether you frequent the ‘local’ or not, for it is that rare commodity, a truly funny book.”
