This volume is an account of the journey the author made between
Eastern Russia (via Tabriz) to Teheran at the turn of the twentieth
century. This is not just a travelogue, however, but a lament for
the loss of British ?prestige? and power in the region to
Russia.
Illustrated with a fine collection of the author's own photographs,
the book is an essential read for anyone interested in what the
history of inns, taverns and pubs can reveal about the local area
The inns of Sussex are rich in stories, and the origins of the
names of the pubs themselves are often fascinating. Here too are
tales of smugglers and sea-farers, and of ghosts that still haunt
their drinking dens of old. From busy coaching houses to sleepy
village taverns, Donald Stuart uncovers a wealth of historic
detail, from architectural features to legends and myths. The
result is a book that is sure to appeal to a broad spectrum of
readers, from those with an interest in local history to pub
enthusiasts and those seeking an atmospheric place to enjoy a
decent pint
A collection of stories that describes the haunted pubs and inns
all over the UK. It is suitable for anyone interested in the both
the paranormal and darker historical side of Britain's old taverns.
