Triple Trinity!


I'm delighted to bring you good news, with added good news. 1st - the good news is that the 3rd Edition of The Roof-Climber's Guide to Trinity from 1960 (actually titled The Night-Climber's Guide) is now available to order. It will be published on the 11th of July. It's similar yet very different to the others and includes a whole new court - Angel - as well as Trinity's Top Ten; it's an entertaining read and includes new images, quotes etc.

The other good news is that with it come the full texts of the previous editions, including Young's appendices to the 1st! On top of that you get an introduction by Richard Williams, the author of the 3rd Edition, now living in Australia. In it he reveals the true identity of our early builderers and provides an entertaining guide to the history of this infamous and historic extreme sport.

The Omnibus is a large-scale softback and is a handsome tome indeed - head over and reserve yours now. As usual, readers of this blog get a 10% discount by using the code 'TRIO' at checkout until the day of publication.
