A poem describing punting from Oxford to the 17th century village of Islip on the river Cherwell.

"This edition of 135 copies was printed and published at the Old School Press, Hinton Charterhouse, Bath in 1994. The text was hand-set in 10pt Gill Sans and printed on dampened Kawanaka ivory paper. The thirty specials (copies i to xxx) were bound by Rachel James in Japanese album style in boards covered with suminagashi paper. The ordinaries (31 to 135) were sewn between covers of handmade Richard de Bas paper. The illustrations are by Simon Brett, and the title was lettered by Ros Pritchard"--Colophon
