The Flower of Gloster first appeared in 1911 after its author, E.Temple Thurston, hired a canal boat called 'The Flower of Gloster' and travelled along the waterways of central England; starting in Oxford he headed northwards to Warwickshire and then south-westwards to Tewkesbury, through the Golden Valley and finally ending his journey in Lechlade. This account of his experience on The Flower of Gloster remains unique in its descriptions of a now bygone age and provides the reader with a real insight into the rural scene and the way of life of the boat people in the early 1900s.
E. Temple Thurston was born in September 1879 in Halesworth, Suffolk. At the age of ten he and his family moved to Cork in Ireland. He was a prolific writer and during his lifetime he wrote over 40 books; The Flower of Gloster was one of his most popular publications. He died in 1933.
