Messing about in boats: LMBC President's Book

The College Archives contains over 180 years of material relating to the Lady Margaret Boat Club. The original President's and Captain's books are a fine record of the earlier days of rowing at Cambridge and represent one the most complete first hand accounts of the early bumping races. The watercolours below were discovered in the first President's book dating from 1825 to 1833.
