- So I've written a book! Waterscapes is about how impactful our need for water is on the environment and people. It's also about the ways in which infrastructure projects can impact place for good or bad.
- Published today: 'Waterscapes: Reservoirs, Environment and Identity in Modern England and Wales', by Andrew McTominey bit.ly/4n4LkxB 'Waterscapes' is the 23rd title in the Society's New Historical perspectives book series, published @uolpress.bsky.social.

- While it's obviously not nice to be in the middle of a drought, it is quite timely, as I allude to in a blog I've done to celebrate the book's release for the RHS.
- Please feel free to buy the book (I have some discount codes if anyone would like one!) but the book is available for free online thanks to the Royal Historical Society, University of London Press, and funding from the Bodleian Library.
