The Chequers is a book written by James Runciman in 1888. The book is essentially a diary of a loafer who spends a considerable amount of time at a public-house called The Chequers. The loafer observes the people who frequent the pub, their habits, their conversations, and their behavior. The book provides a detailed and vivid description of the pub, its surroundings, and the people who visit it. The loafer's observations are sharp and insightful, and he provides a unique perspective on the social dynamics of the pub. The book is an interesting and entertaining read, and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a public-house in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
