The Old Dog And Duck
Why should pubs be called The Cross Keys, The Dew Drop Inn or The Hope and Anchor. This book tells the stories behind pub names to reveal how they offer fascinating and subversive insights on our history, customs, attitudes and jokes in just the same way that nursery rhymes do.
