"A lively and lovingly researched guide, this is the perfect companion for exploring Britain's best pubs: one city, one pint, and one story at a time."
I love a pub crawl, me. A little adventure, all planned out. With multiple destinations in mind. And a drink in every establishment. What's not to love about that?
And to help me on my quest of a good ol' fashioned pub crawl is Thomas J. Vosper who turned his birthday tradition, hosting annual pub crawls in and around London, into a social media sensation. A passionate advocate for pubs, people and UK communities his series of guidebooks titled Historic Pub Crawls, blend personal stories with local lore’s aged drinkeries and are bolstered by fascinating facts about each location. Each book in the series is a curated guide of walks around iconic public houses, the cornerstones of British culture and society for centuries.
Within the pages of Historic Pub Crawls Through England you'll find a selection of routes in nine cities across the UK: Brighton, Birmingham, Nottingham Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester, St Albans, London and York. It's a brilliant way to explore our beloved island, with Vosper as our guide, showcasing some iconic locations. Each route starts near a train station or landmark, with walking directions and a map. You'll find thoroughly researched, well-trodden walks via 10-13 cracking pubs in each city accompanied by a smorgasbord of historic landmarks and modern sights. Whether you love an historic pub, a canal-side location, a modern music venue or a CAMRA award winner, Vosper has got your back.
So grab your copy of the book, pick a city, and go, on foot, and explore some wonderful places, great beer and a bevy of beautiful establishments. It's all about the entire route within interesting areas, and the great pubs are the icing on the cake. Or should I say, froth on the pint.
