Eye Books is a small, independent publisher founded in 1996 with the aim of publishing books about the extraordinary things ordinary people have done: people who decide to stop talking about their dreams and actually go out and grab them.


Review:

Publisher's website 2007

Following his last best selling book Dancing with Sabrina when Bob took us along the River Severn, Bob dons his boots again to explore Offas Dyke.
Built by Offa, King of Mercia in 757 to 796 AD the dyke formed the boundary between England & Wales, running 182 miles from Prestatyn in the north to Sedbury, near Chepstow in the south.

As Bob walks the length of Offas Dyke, he whisks us back to discover the past and meet the villains, heroes and madmen that the dyke has been witness to across the ages. He takes us through the towns and villages that have sprung up close by and reveals their ancient secrets and folklore. He samples the modern day with his refreshingly simple needs and throws light on where to go and not to go, to eat, drink and visit.
