About this book

"The Flying Inn" by G. K. Chesterton is a novel published in 1914. Set in a future England dominated by Progressive Islam and temperance laws, the story follows Humphrey Pump and Captain Patrick Dalroy as they travel the countryside with a barrel of rum, exploiting legal loopholes to evade prohibition. While the rich obtain alcohol through medical certificates, the poor are denied access. The heroes ultimately confront an Islamic military coup threatening the nation.
