The
Garret Press was formed in 2001 to publish and market a trilogy of
books on the Somerset coast.
The books, written in a relaxed and
conversational style, are brimful of beautiful watercolour paintings
illustrating the coastline.
Rosie and Howard have walked, biked
and sailed the coastline many times.
The books are packed with
personal reminiscence, stories and local tales. Many people have
helped along the way with their anecdotes and yarns.
The books
are printed and bound in Cornwall on high quality Fyneblade Extra
paper. With and interweaving text, Rosie's illustrations sit on the
page as if freshly painted.
Recently the coast books have been
joined by 'Steep Holm Diary': tales from Somerset's rocky outcrop in
the Severn Sea.
