O knihe

Welcome to the Golden Rule - it's been 'just a country inn' for three centuries, nestled in the oldest part of Ambleside in the picturesque Lake District. Enjoy a journey from its earliest days to the present, as a procession of landlords, regulars and visitors add their own colours to a canvas of conversation, accommodation and diversion... and only the best in beer. Meet the innkeeper who lost everything (twice), the old man who believed God had forgotten him, the Rule's last brewer, a ruthless con-man, a would-be racing driver, two war heroes, several painters and poets, and many of the characters who have make this remarkable pub such a unique place. The Rule Book is a series of short adventures and anecdotes, based on events that really happened in and around the pub, or on stories told to the author during his own many happy hours at the bar. Foreword by John Lockley, landlord since 1981. Includes historical timeline from 1508 to recent years.
