From Taverns to Gastropubs

Mehr zum Buch

From Taverns to Gastropubs is a timely study of a rather neglected institution, the pub, that is part of British national identity and (like many other national institutions) has been rather under threat recently. Lane's study is a model of 'mixed methods' research, which not only traces a long process of historical development but also, through interviews and quantitative data, shows how gastropubs represent a current survival strategy in a rapidly changing eating environment.
