History and Legends of the Pelican Inn
by Charles Felix

The Pelican Inn introduces a new book, written by Charles Felix, a telling story that reach back to his British roots and his creation of the Pelican Inn.

With buoyant spirit, enlivened by illustrations, Felix's book brings alive an intriguing cache of historical British innkeeping along with mystical accounts that led to the creation and birth of the inn.

Poignantly written and lighthearted, you'll find yourself laying his book on your chest for long sessions of historical daydreaming.

 

Samuel Johnson
by Joshua Reynolds, 1775

"As soon as I enter the door of a tavern, I experience oblivion of care, and a freedom from solicitude. There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern or inn." Samuel Johnson
