Do you remember Janet Bord's book 'Sacred Waters' which came out way back
in 1985? Perhaps, like me, this was the book which 'turned you on' to
becoming a wellie and joining this list?
Even if (like me!) 1985 doesn't seem that long ago, in practice 'Sacred
Waters' started a deluge of renewed interest in holy wells and considerable
has taken place in the last 20 years. So much so that Janet has now
written the first of a two volume 'sequel' to 'Sacred Waters', drawing upon
the substantial amount of new knowledge.
In my capacity running Heart of Albion Press I am honoured to be publishing
this new book. It will be officially available from 1st September but as a
special pre-publication offer for Water Talk list members I am happy to
supply this *post free* in the UK (i.e. saving £1.50) for orders received
before this time next month - making the price just £14.95. For more
details of 'Cures and Cuses' please visit

Cheques (£14.95 for each copy) should be payable to 'Heart of Albion' and
sent to the address below. If you are overseas then please email for a
quote for (subsidised!) air mail and details of how to pay. If you prefer
to pay by credit card or PayPal then again email.
Apologies for an out-an-out advert on the list, but hope you agree this is
likely to be this year's 'must buy' book for British wells enthusiasts!
best regards
Bob Trubshaw
