From the Publisher of Australian Bush Pubs, comes a stunning review of the historic watering holes of New South Wales. Historic Pubs of New South Wales is an eclectic collection of 25 of the state’s historic watering holes, featuring over 50 stunning full colour photographs and showcasing the irrepressible character and a glimpse into the uniqueness of these long-lived establishments. The book portrays a short history of each establishment along with any particular aspects, such as happenings and famous patrons.



There are city hotels, like the Lord Nelson Hotel in Sydney’s The Rocks through to more remote outposts such as the Mount Hope Hotel in the state’s western districts. New South Wales’ oldest continuously licensed hotel is also revealed.



Historic Pubs of New South Wales would be a treasured gift for anyone who enjoys a quiet beer.
