Flying Inn

The Flying Inn by G.K. Chesterton is a satirical novel that takes place in a future England where the government has banned the existence of all public houses and inns. The story follows the adventures of Humphrey Pump and Captain Patrick Dalroy as they travel the country in an old inn that they have converted into a travelling tavern. Through their journey, they challenge the oppressive government and defend traditional English culture and liberty. Chesterton's wit and social commentary shine through in this thought-provoking and humorous tale.
