Its prohibition time folksin merry ole England no less. No longer can the band swill their nut-brown ale (and other spirits). The inn may not have a sign inviting the locals to quaff a few, but if you are allowed a sign (according to the law) you may serve the grape et al. Quite a quandary, eh! So what do you do? An English tavernkeep and an Irish sea captain solve the dilemma by taking it to go: not just the food and drink, but the whole shebang. G. K. manages to pan just about everything else in this satirical romp about the country. Is nothing sacred? Well, maybe the Catholic church is, hardly anything else. So raid the icebox, pull off your shoes, relax, and imbibe a few as you peruse this wacky yarn.
