Complete Reprint of the Classic Bar Book "Old Boston Taverns And
Tavern Clubs" by Samuel Adams Drake, originally published 1886.
Samual Adams Drake endeavors to give the history of the "Rise and
Fall of the Taverns" of New England. Taverns were licensed as fast
as new villages grew up." They quickly became the one known
landmark within each neighborhood of a town and in the old almanacs
distances were always computed between the inns, rather than from
town to town. In addition to the history of the tavern in general
this classic edition covers signboard humor and Cole's Inn, The
Bakers' Arms, the Golden Ball Tavern and the Hancock Tavern in
particular. Including a list of taverns and tavern owners as well
as numerous illustrations, including signboards. Dedicated as
always to all bartenders and cocktail lovers. Feel free to take a
