Mike Peyton drew his first cartoon in 1942. At the time he was interned in a German prisoner of war camp & the cartoon appeared in a newspaper run by & for his fellow prisoners. Seventy years later he has only recently stopped providing cartoons for the Yachting Monthly Confessional column for which he has become so well loved in recent decades. Having provided illustrations for magazines as varied as the Church of England Times & Corsetry & Underwear Mike became best known for cartoons relating to his first love
- yachting (and as he will happily point out he had a boat before he had a car). To celebrate his career Adlard Coles Nautical presents this hilarious retrospective of the very best of Mike's cartoons from the last eight decades a collection that will bring a smile to the face of even the most rain-sodden sailor stuck in his marina berth for another week supposedly in summer. When yachting journalist Dick Durham wrote Mike's biography he called Mike 'the world's greatest yachting cartoonist' & this book shows why. Witty wise & well-executed Mike's lively perceptive & highly distinctive cartoons will speak to anyone who has ever taken to the water.

From Snuff": " Vimes looked at the cover. The title was " The World of Poo". When his wife was out of eyeshot he carefully leafed through it. Well okay you had to accept that the world had moved on & these days fairy stories were probably not going to be about twinkly little things with wings. As he turned page after page it dawned on him that whoever had written this book they certainly knew what would make kids like Young Sam laugh until they were nearly sick. The bit about sailing down the river almost made him smile. But interspersed with the scatology was actually quite interesting stuff about septic tanks & dunnakin divers & gongfermors & how dog muck helped make the very best leather & other things that you never thought you would need to know but once heard somehow lodged in your mind." Helen Atkinson-Wood is an actress & presenter. She is probably best known as Mrs Miggins in " Blackadder the Third". She has been twice nominated by The British Comedy Awards
- Best Female Performer
- for BBCs Radio Active & KYTV. She starred in Ben Eltons " West End play " Silly Cow" & guests on "QI" & " Have I Got News For You". Helen enjoys poo picking in Suffolk where she has a horse & a home."
