Nature Notes (With a degree of diversion) by Gordon Forest                     £14.75
This quality publication details Gordon's personal observations of Worcestershire Wildlife and is illustrated with his full-colour photographs.
    "Gordon Forrest is a local builder who studies and photographs local Worcestershire wildlife, not only as a hobby but as part of his being. He took up nature photography in the late sixties when inspired to capture the beauty of a kingfisher when he discovered its nest site.
He joined the Worcestershire Wildlife Trust in the early 70's and he promotes the Trust with his stimulating talks on Nature (illustrated with his photographs).
A first book was published in 1997 - celebrating the Trust's Thirtieth Anniversary - about his observations and studies of nature entitled 'Undercover Agent'. This volume is about more of the same."

    A History of St Catherine's Rowing (1875 - 1999)    £19.95 (+p.&p.)
ISBN 0 9531279 1 5                Don Barton    Anu Dudhia    Tony Hancox
St Catherine's, the only Oxford undergraduate College to be built since 1945 developed from the earlier non-residential 'unattached' student body and St Catherine's Society. The Founding Master of the College is historian Lord Bullock who contributes the Foreword to this new edition: he has seen St Catherine's become, over the forty years of its existence, one of the largest of Oxford's colleges, providing places for 442 undergraduates and 154 post-graduates.
'A History of St Catherine's Rowing' describes the fortunes over a period of a century and a quarter of those who have rowed on the Isis while at the same time attempting, during an all-too-brief sojourn of nine terms, usually, to achieve their degrees.
The College, uniquely in Oxford and Cambridge - and perhaps in the world - took its name from its Boat Club, something of which every rowing generation at St Catherine's is inordinately proud.

The authors of this book are alumni of St Catherine's College, Oxford, and members of its Rowing Society. All of them rowed with some distinction for the College Boat Club, one additionally representing his University and one his country.
They have drawn on archival material, interviews with many of those involved with the rowing and their recollections to produce this detailed and absorbing account.

Matthew Pinsent - St Catherines (1989) contributes Chapter 19 on the 1992 Olympic Games at which. with Steve Redgrave, he won a Gold Medal at the Barcelona Olympics.

This second edition will be available from 21st April 2000
