Black Country Breweries Av Joe Mckenna

<p><strong>The <em>Black Country</em> was the industrial heartland of England, a harsh environment of coal and iron mines, of nail and chain making.</strong> Its people worked hard, and drank hard. This is the story of brewing in the region. It was often on a small scale, like the industry itself.</p><p>The <em>Black Country</em> is known for its home-brew houses, and the characters associated with them - Ma Pardoe, Old Sal, Batham''s, Holden''s and Sarah Hughes - are part of our brewing heritage. The rise of the big brewers came late to the region, but made a major impression. Mitchells & Butlers at Cape Hill and Banks at Wolverhampton have strode through the pages of the brewing history of this country for over 125 years.</p><p>This book, complete with over 100 illustrations, provides a fascinating insight into the history of brewing in the <em>Black Country</em>.</p>
