Competition Results

17th July 2025

Here are the results of our latest newsletter competition…

Last week, we had a copy of Travis Elborough’s Writers’ Journeys That Shaped Our World to give away. We asked:

Which of the authors listed on the book’s cover is best known for their book about a sperm whale – once described by D. H. Lawrence as “the greatest book of the sea ever written”?

And the answer is: Herman Melville. The winner is Mellany Robinson. Your book should be with you very soon!

Thanks for all the entries. To be in with the chance of winning our next prize, make sure you’re subscribed to our mailing list. The sign-up box can be found on the right-hand side of this page.
