Book Synopsis Old Tavern Signs by : Fritz August Gottfried Endell
Book excerpt: "Old Tavern Signs" by Fritz August Gottfried Endell is a history book about taverns and hospitality. The author's love of the subject is his only apology for his bold undertaking. First, it was the filigree quality and the beauty of the delicate tracery of the wrought-iron signs in the picturesque villages of southern Germany that attracted his attention; then their deep symbolic significance exerted its influence more and more over his mind and tempted him, at last, to follow their history back until he could discover its multifarious relations to the thought and feeling of earlier generations.
