Description

Book Synopsis
The Peak District's pub heritage is as rich as the beer that foams from the pumps, and via its inns, taverns and hotels we can trace centuries of social history in one of the most beautiful parts of Britain. This is the story of the evolution of the traditional Peak District pub from humble alehouse to the present day.

Trade Review
"the social history of the Peak District is skilfully evoked by the stories of the pubs themselves... Andrew McCloy puts forward a good case for a leisurely tour of the Peak District taking in the abundance of interesting and unspoilt pubs, not to mention the growth of the micro pub and brewing scene... an affectionate and most satisfying book" Pub History, The Journal of the Pub History Society
