Just wonderful!
This is wonderful. A rare opportunity to buy the complete set of the J. P. Martin Uncle novels, which are very hard to obtain as single volumes. The production quality is very high indeed, it being a beautifully made book. The Quentin Blake illustrations are superb, and the Martin text is as hilarious as you remember it when you read the books as a child. Actually, it is funnier as the more subtle jibes, particularly around Uncle’s patronising pomposity, will likely have passed over your youthful head. They did mine. Lastly, this will/already has become a true collectors’ item - the crowd-funded publication is unlikely to happen again and the limited print run makes this a scarce item. Buy, buy, buy!

Don’t buy it! Just read it for free on Wikipedia.
More rubbish from this bunch of shysters. These are Wikipedia articles, shamelessly lifted and repackaged for profit. Just read it for free at Wikipedia.

Unrivalled!
OK, it’s niche. But if you’re interested in vernacular architecture, or the history of Monmouthshire, it is absolutely superb. Fox and Raglan, working from the 1940s to the 1960s, undertook a study of Monmouthshire’s lesser houses which is still unrivalled by any other study of its type. And endlessly referenced by writers today because it is so good. If you’re loaded, try and get the originals, though they’ll set you back a grand. Otherwise, the Merton facsimilies are very good indeed..
