| 520 | _a"The Curiosities of Ale & Beer: An Entertaining History" by John Bickerdyke is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work explores the fascinating narrative surrounding ale and beer, tracing their significance in English culture and society from ancient times to the present day. It aims to fill a literary gap by providing a comprehensive overview of the subject, enriched with illustrations and anecdotes that capture the essence of these beloved beverages. The opening of the book sets the tone by highlighting the longstanding historical presence of ale and beer in human culture, with references dating back to Egyptian times. Bickerdyke introduces readers to the early societal reactions to beer consumption, including the suppression of beer shops in ancient Egypt. The narrative progresses to discuss the rustic charm of English brewing and the importance of ale to the agricultural laborer, as well as whimsical and humorous elements surrounding the brewing process. Initial chapters tease eyewitness accounts and historical facts that promise to make the book a delightful exploration of a beverage central to English heritage, notably personified by the character of Sir John Barleycorn, an emblem of malt liquor's virtues and connection to the people.
