YEOVIL CINEMAS THROUGH TIME
Published: 2013

The first picture house in Yeovil was the Princes Street Assembly Rooms, which was built in 1889 as a general entertainment venue and started screening films in 1896.

Jane Duffus takes us on a unique journey through time to see the affect that modern technology has had on the many cinemas that Yeovil once had, and in doing so reveals a rich vein of untapped history about the town. This full colour book will surprise and delight anyone who knows the area.

THE WHAT THE FROCK! BOOK OF FUNNY WOMEN
Published: 2015

The What The Frock! Book of Funny Women will neither ask nor answer the question ‘Are women funny?’ because of course women are funny. Since launching in 2012, What The Frock! Comedy has gone from being a one-off show to a regular event that has expanded to several UK cities. Ultimately, it was about providing a platform to champion upcoming female comedy talent – so that when you ask someone to name their favourite funny woman, the answer isn't always a pause followed by, "Err, there is only Kathryn Ryan isn't there?"

Published: 2021

This beautifully bound hardback book, published to coincide with Fears’ 175th anniversary, charts the history of the company from its founding in Bristol in 1846 by Edwin Fear, through to its closure in the late 1970s, and its subsequent re-founding in 2016. It is a detailed history not only of Britain's oldest watch company, but also of a family business that persevered through numerous world catastrophes such as two world wars and the great depression.
