Ex Libris Press

Books on Wiltshire, Somerset & Devon

New in 2011

In the summer we were pleased to bring out a new edition of Mary Delorme’s Curious Wiltshire. We first published Mary’s book in 1985. The last reprint in 2000 has been out of print for some years. This latest edition marks the fifth incarnation of Mary’s book. We have kept the price at £7.95 – the same as the 2000 edition.

For much of the year I have been engaged in preparing a new revised edition of Bradford Voices which was originally published in 1997. Sub-titled ‘A Study of Bradford on Avon through the Twentieth Century’, it was intended as an end-of-century book. The new edition, now bearing the sub-title ‘Life in Bradford on Avon 1900-2010’, has been substantially expanded and revised; it contains a new chapter on the first decade of the twenty-first century and no fewer than 85 new illustrations. At 320 pages, it is 25% bigger. The price, too, is 20% more but, at £11.95, represents great value for this large-format, lavishly illustrated tome.

Ex Libris Press published its first books in the early 1980s. We were based in Bradford on Avon in West Wiltshire for some 25 years until relocating to Jersey in the Channel Islands in 2005 and then moving back to Bradford on Avon in 2010. The majority of our titles have focused on the heritage, both historical and environmental, of the counties of Wiltshire, Somerset and the West Country in general.
