520			_a"Old Country Inns of England" by Henry P. Maskell and Edward W. Gregory is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich history and cultural significance of various country inns in England, detailing their evolution from simple shelters for travelers to vibrant social hubs. The authors aim to provide readers with a captivating look at the role inns played in English society, showcasing notable establishments across the countryside. The opening of the work sets the stage by addressing a common complaint among travelers about guidebooks focusing solely on churches and manor houses, neglecting the historical context of inns. The authors begin by discussing the legacy of these establishments, highlighted by various 'manorial' inns that provided hospitality since at least the 14th century. They introduce intriguing anecdotes about the oldest inns and describe the transition from simple manor houses to the institutionalized inns, which became central to community life and travel. Through its detailed explorations, the book seeks to reignite appreciation for these fading symbols of an earlier, more communal way of life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
