In over 150 watercolour paintings and pencil sketches, Graham Byfield takes us on a tour of Oxford's historic landmarks, celebrated colleges and beautiful landscapes. But he also takes time to reveal some of the architectural treasures in little-known back streets and hidden cloisters. This is a book that captures the character of Oxford which charms millions each year, but is often lost in their snapshots and postcards. Illustrated throughout with superb watercolours printed on textured paper, Roger White's captions reveal the author's passion for Oxford, resulting in a sketchbook that offers an idiosyncratic and vibrant account of the city and its fascinating history. This book is the latest in the popular Sketchbook series, also distributed by Thames & Hudson, that includes Paris Sketchbook, London Sketchbook, Singapore Sketchbook, Thailand Sketchbook, The Loire Valley Sketchbook and Venice Sketchbook.

The perfect introduction to the citys architectural heritage, Cambridge The Watercolour Sketchbook gives visitors and residents insight into a wealth of sights, both grand and intimate in scale. Many facets of the university town and surrounds are recorded here, as Graham Byfield strolls with his sketchpad through college gateways, courts and gardens, along broad streets and narrow alleyways, into great ceremonial buildings and medieval pubs full of character. All of Englands architectural styles are well represented in Cambridge, and a sunny day spent wandering around the city can be intoxicating. Indeed, as writer Marcus Binney says: If one city had to stand for all that is fine, inventive, lovely and sensitive in English architecture, it is Cambridge. Accompanying the paintings and sketches are observations and notes handwritten by the artist, as well as an introduction to Cambridge by heritage expert Marcus Binney.

The 700 islands, cays and islets of the Bahamas are scattered across over 96,000 square miles of the Atlantic Ocean. Only 23 of the islands are inhabited, and amongst these, visitors will find an intriguing blend of the old and new, the expected and unexpected. The character of each island is different: there is San Salvador, with its turquoise waters that are perfect for diving, Inagua with its untamed wilderness and renowned wildlife, Grand Bahama with its glitz and glamour and New Providence with the bustling cosmopolitan capital, Nassau. Of those that travel in search of a paradise, many find it in the Bahamas. In the Bahamas Sketchbook, acclaimed watercolour artist Graham Byfield masterfully captures the spirit and character of these fames isles, transporting readers to this tranquil and captivating place where classic architecture is found alongside palm-fringed beaches.
