Publisher's Synopsis

Robert Gillmor, one of Britain's most influential wildlife artists, illustrated four sets of pictorial stamps featuring birds for Royal Mail's Post & Go. Brought together and reproduced here for the first time, in larger-than-stamp size, these prints demonstrate the author's lifelong love and appreciation of our nation's birds. His own account of the process by which his linocuts are made, along with anecdotal descriptions of his bird encounters, bring the pictures to life. This beautifully produced collection will be coveted by wildlife lovers, artists and stamp collectors alike.

About the Publisher

Two Rivers Press

Two Rivers Press has been publishing in and about Reading since 1994. The brainchild of Peter Hay (1951-2003), one of the town's most creative champions, the press grew out of his delight in this under-loved town and its recessed spaces. "Pete believed in Reading, and his enthusiastic publication of local books and maps can be seen as part of a quiet campaign that a number of us have been waging for years - to prove that the town exists, lives, happens, and is by no means to be confused with Anywhere." Adam Sowan.
