THE CHAPTER HOUSE,
GLOUCESTER CATHEDRAL

ON SUNDAY, JUNE 25th
AT 11.45 a.m.

BOOK LAUNCH: ‘THE SHIP IN THE CITY’

BY PETER WYTON

A collection of poems about the history of the cathedral and the personalities associated with it, spanning more than 900 years.

Sunday Eucharist starts at 10.15. If you are not attending the service, please come to the South Porch (directly ahead of you as you enter the cathedral close from Westgate Street) at 11.30 a.m. The guides will direct you to the chapter house.

" 'The Ship In The City' is a collection of 34 poems on the subject of Gloucester cathedral, and the people, famous and infamous, connected with it over 900 years. It is written from the historical point of view, rather than the religious, and - being by me - is not entirely devoid of humour!" Peter Wyton

Price £5, or £5.75 inc. P&P from 14, Grisedale Close, Longlevens, Gloucester, GL2 0EG. Cheques should be made out to P.I. Fisher.
