Six melodramatic tales, variously set upon the River Thames and its banks between Lechlade and Putney, The Weybridge Sailing Club Monologues were written for recitation as after-dinner entertainment. These tales, sometimes tragic, frequently hilarious, make marvellous fireside reading and will appeal to all those who love the River Thames. "The real piece de resistance was a recitation by club member Tim Carter, which had the entire room in stitches and rightly received a standing ovation." Mort Smith, "Riverwatch", Surrey Herald. "I imagine Old Father Thames chuckling as he reads this book with the occasional watery guffaw. It is a fine example of the old tradition of story-telling in light verse. Enjoy it!" Reverend Canon Peter Ball, formerly Vicar of Shepperton, 1968-1984. . "Terrific stuff! For slack times afloat in my punt I will certainly have a copy aboard!" Bill Rushmer, famous fisherman and Angler's Mail journalist.
