Over the course of more than forty essays, Avengers fans the world over relate how they first encountered the series, how they grew up with it at their sides, made friends, engaged with fandom and were inspired to do extraordinary things. Proceeds from this book will be donated to Champion Chanzige, a charity organisation that exists to improve conditions for underprivileged children at a primary school in Southern Tanzania - and helps them to do extraordinary things too.

Book Description
Created by Richard Carpenter, Catweazle burst onto TV screens in 1970, capturing the hearts of children and adults alike. It starred Geoffrey Bayldon as the eponymous Saxon wizard, who was twice catapulted through time to a 1970s England full of technology that left him bewildered. His companions and mentors in "the new magic" were children, Carrot (Robin Davies) and Cedric (Gary Warren), both of whom he befriended. Tis Magic! Our Memories of Catweazle celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the series with forty brilliant essays in which writers explore how Catweazle has touched their lives. Extensively illustrated, it boasts a foreword by Harriet Whitehouse, daughter of Catweazle's creator, and an afterword by Venetia Davies, wife of Robin Davies. Today, Catweazle is regarded as one of the very best British children's television series. It remains well-loved and boasts a close-knit fan community brought together by the Official Catweazle Fan Club, which benefits from sales of this book.

Book Description
"In the Plaid Avenger's world, we will strip off the shallow window dressing in which you have been trained to see the world donned, we will lay it bare to see what is really happening around the planet. We do this in order to gain enough insight about the current state of the world to truly understand the how and why and where things are happening right now. In this world, no single government or press dictates our views; no single political party shapes our opinion; no single religion or ethnicity tints our not-so-rose-colored glasses. We will see the world in plaid: a mystical weaving of facts, figures, cultures and viewpoints from every corner of the planet, culminating into the fabric that is today." -- p. [2].
