Clubland at Harrogate Beer Week
20th September 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
£13.52
Come and join us as we welcome the inimitable Pete Brown back to Harrogate Beer Week to talk about his book, Clubland: How the Working Men’s Club Shaped Britain.
Cultural historian and award-winning beer writer Pete Brown turns his attention to a phenomenon that has shaped modern British culture without anyone really noticing, launching the careers of global stars like Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey and Steve Davies. The Working Men’s Club movement has an astonishing untold history covering feminism, the Chartists, Bernard Manning and the rumour about Shirley Bassey peeing in a sink.
