      • Cambridge University Press

        The Cambridge story began in 1534 when Henry VIII granted us letters patent, allowing the Press to print 'all manner of books'. Cambridge published its first book in 1584 making it the oldest publishing house in the world. Over the next four centuries the Press's reputation spread throughout Europe, based on excellence in scholarly publishing of academic texts, poetry, school books, prayer books and Bibles. Along the way Cambridge published ground-breaking works such as Newton's Principia Mathematica, Milton's Lycidas, Ernest Rutherford'sRadio-activity, and Noam Chomsky's Language and Mind. In the 20th century Cambridge extended that influence to become a global publisher. Today Cambridge has over 50 offices across the globe, employs over 2,000 people, publishes over 50,000 titles by authors from over 100 countries, and is still growing, bringing thousands of subjects and millions of ideas to the world.

        Writing On The Road

        Campervan Love and the Joy of Solitude

        by Sue Reid Sexton

        This book is not just funny (or sad) stories of campervan trips in Scotland; it is not just ‘Zen and the art of campervan maintenance’ (with stories of sweetness and light that will entertain or make you cry); and it is not just nature writing (with observations of wildlife in the western Scottish Highlands). But if you enjoy reading about how books are written and about recovery stories from relationship breakdowns, and if you like reading about women travelling alone and all the things that can go wrong (and right), about strategies for facing fear, dealing with creepy crawlies and noises in the night, and about surviving all that life throws at you (especially when you are over a certain age), then you will probably enjoy this book. Writing on the Road is by Sue Reid Sexton, who, while writing two novels (Mavis’s Shoe and Rue End Street) over the past six years, needed to escape from her hectic household to create some space in her life to write them. As the mother of two and a step-mum of four, Sue realised her only real option was to get into her campervan and have it function as a mobile office. Whether she camped by a beach overlooking the Atlantic in the Kintyre peninsula with buzzards, golden eagles, deer, seals, surfers, other campervanners and dead fish for company, or in the hills around Glasgow, or on Skye, Assynt, the Cowal peninsula or even in southern France, her main aim was to switch off her phone, get out her laptop and write. Sue has made countless journeys in campervans (one of her favourite types of campervan is Romahome) in the last few years and thanks to her practice of taking notes as she travels, we, too, can enjoy her campervan experiences. In Writing on the Road Sue also writes about the many and varied practical difficulties of campervan life that she has had to overcome. They include locking herself out of the campervan at night miles from home; coping with local bylaws and negative attitudes to campervans and to women travelling solo; having to drive a hundred miles before she could empty a cracked toilet; and finding out the wrong (and the right) way to buy a campervan. We hope this book will inspire anyone looking for encouragement in the expressive arts to get creative and persuade any would-be campervanners to get out there and enjoy the campervan life.

        Tightrope

        by Jenny Gill

        Baby Boomer Fiction - No 2 in the Southhill Sagas, set in leafy Surrey to the south of London, although each book stands alone. Lizzie is not what one might think of as a typical vicar’s wife.  She doesn’t sing in the choir, help with cake sales or the Sunday School.  She doesn’t get involved in the parish life at all, but holds down a senior position at a major bank.  Jacob and Lizzie have a good marriage, not exciting, but then few marriages are after twenty seven years.  When Lizzie is selected to represent her branch at a banking conference up north she expects it to be interesting at best.   What she doesn’t expect is to fall in love.  She describes her life as having been lived in black and white thus far, and now she can see colour.  But how can she grab her own happiness at the expense of others?  How can she destroy her family for her own pleasure?   But, if she throws away this opportunity, it will almost certainly never come again.   A story of love, but above all the story of one woman’s moral dilemma

        The Grand Tour

        by Olivia Wearne

        This vivid story of campervans, stowaways and mischief at any age is essentially about families: the ones you have and the ones you make.   When Ruby and Angela embark on a Grey Nomads road trip, the last thing they expect is a tiny stowaway; one who will turn them from unsuspecting tourists into wanted kidnappers and land them in a world of trouble. As their leisurely retirement plans unravel, Angela's relationship with her brother Bernard goes from bad to worse.   Bernard has his own problems to contend with. Adrift in life, his career as a news presenter has been reduced to opening fetes and reading Voss as an audio book (a seemingly impossible task). His troubles are compounded when his wife starts dating a younger man and a drink-driving incident turns him into a celebrity offender.   As Angela and Ruby set about repairing burnt bridges and helping their unexpected guest, and Bernard attempts to patch together his broken life, they discover that even after a lifetime of experience, you're never too old to know better.   A warm, funny, sharply observed story about aging disgracefully and loving the one you're with.
