Members of the Association are currently working on several new publications, amongst these are:

2nd edition of Along the Coast - Cullen to Pennan, this edition will be A5 size, the 1st edition which was an A4 book is SOLD OUT.  This edition will be published July 2010.

Along the Coast - Burghead to Portknockie will be the third volume in this series, and will be launched 25th July 2010 at the Portgordon Gala.

More from the 'Through the Years' Series, these books will be a similar format to 'Macduff Through the Years', which tells the history of Macduff on a timeline:

Whitehills Through the Years.  Will be launched at the Whitehills Gala 17th July 2010.

Portsoy Through the Years.

Banff Through The Years.  (This will be a large A4 book).

 

Herring Fishing in Banff and Macduff (This may extend to the Banffshire Coast).

 

A Woman's Place - A Quiet Revolution.

 

 

Archbishop Sharp - Banff to St. Andrew's.

 

The 3rd volume of our successful 'Along the Coast' series - This will cover a stretch of the Moray Firth coast heading west from Cullen ending somewhere in Moray, likely to be Burghead.

Other possible titles are:

Antiquities of the North East and the Picts.

 

 

Banff Silversmiths.  Banff in the 18th and 19th centuries was famous for silversmiths, to date only a small leaflet produced by Dr. Bertie Aberdenshire Council is available, we hope to gather enough information to produce a small booklet.

 

Famous Banffers.  A compilation of famous folk from Banff or associated with Banff, should be an interesting read.

 

Other ideas are welcome, and if you're interested in becoming a published author come along and join us.  We have a monthly meeting which is on the first Tuesday of the month in The Buchan Street Hall, Macduff, 7pm to 8pm. 

(Please note the January meeting is usually held on the 2nd Tuesday).
