Publisher's Synopsis

Dickensian Inns and Taverns is a book written by Bertram Waldrom Matz that explores the various inns and taverns that were featured in the novels of Charles Dickens. The book takes readers on a journey through the streets of Victorian London, where they will encounter some of the most iconic and memorable characters from Dickens' works, such as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Ebenezer Scrooge.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different inn or tavern from Dickens' novels. The author provides detailed descriptions of each location, including its history, architecture, and the role it played in the stories. He also includes illustrations and photographs that help bring the inns and taverns to life.Throughout the book, readers will learn about the social and cultural significance of these establishments in Victorian England. Inns and taverns were not only places where people could eat and drink, but they were also important meeting places where ideas were exchanged and alliances formed. They were also places where people could escape from the hardships of daily life and find comfort and camaraderie.Overall, Dickensian Inns and Taverns is a fascinating exploration of the world of Charles Dickens and the role that inns and taverns played in his novels.
