Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Lara Carlini (illustrator). 1st Book People Edition. Hardback. This is a book for everyone who has ever wondered why pubs should be called the Cross Keys, Jack Straw's Castle or the Quiet Woman. You'll be glad to know that there are very good - strange and memorable - reasons behind them all. After much research about (and in) pubs, the author brings together the stories behind pub names to reveal how they offer fascinating and subversive insights on our history, customs, attitudes and terrible jokes. The tales behind pub names cover everything from pirates to the Peasants' Revolt, Robin Hood to royal mistresses and cricket to cholera and tell great stories of our own popular history. You'll never look at a pub sign in the same way again.Illustrations. 278 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
