Get your signed copy of Not That Kind of Art!

With Christmas just around the corner, things have been winding down in the Candy Jar offices... just kidding! We've been really busy packaging all the orders to send off for all of your Christmas presents, we've had two - TWO!! - amazing book releases (read about Amulet here),  and one fabulous book launch (...and a partridge in a pear tree!)

The much anticipated first book from artist Nathan Wyburn was officially published this week, and what better way to celebrate the release than with a book launch?

We all had a great evening, tons of people bought a copy for themselves and for Christmas presents too! A massive thanks to Cameo Club for hosting and making everybody feel all warm and fuzzy!

But now for the real news...

ROYAL WATCHER ON HIS OWN PUBLIC TOUR!

Colin Edwards, author of the recently released photography book, A Personal Portrait of the Royal Family, is now on his own tour of the country to showcase his book to the public.

Colin Edwards proudly presents his book.

Now at 73, Colin is able to share a passion with others that he has enjoyed for over 50 years. From the very first moment his interest began during the H.M The Queen's coronation in 1953, he has devoted his time to meeting and photographing the Royal Family at a variety of public events and walkabouts.

In doing so, Colin has created a fascinating historical archive that captures the House of Windsor in some of their most endearing moments. Primarily featuring the three most popular Royals of the 20th century, Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and Diana, Princess of Wales, the book is perfect for any budding Royalist, with personal anecdotes providing insightful context into the photographs and their subjects.

As part of the promotional campaign for the book, Colin is now signing copies at a variety of sites. These include:

  • Mold Library - Wednesday 30th April
  • Wrexham Waterstones - Saturday 3rd May
  • Chester Waterstones - Saturday 24th May
  • Macclesfield Waterstones - Saturday 7th June
  • Rhyl Library - Tuesday 10th June

More confirmed dates are to follow. If you'd like to know more about the book or to purchase a copy, visit us at www.candyjarbooks.co.uk, or at the book's website at www.candy-jar.co.uk/royalfamily.html.
