Description

Folklore of the Australain Pub by Bill Wannan. 'The folklore of our pubs and shanties is a rich mixture spiced with the rough and tumble of pioneering days. Anecdotes, rollicking ballards, bar signs and pub language all contribute to the camaraderie of pub patrons. The publican with his sympathic ear or loking for a drop of his own brew, the barmaid ready to give as much cheek as she receives, the drunk whose aim in life is to put one over the man behind the counter - familiar figures in the heady atmosphere od a crowded pub. Good for a sip or a long swill, this book is intended primarily for the reader's bedside or barside pleasure.
