Club member Clive Gravett has published a book about the history of the lawn mower and his own passion for collecting. Two Men Went to Mow is the story of two men, born 157 years apart, both obsessed with the lawn mower: Edwin Beard Budding (1796-1846) its ingenious inventor, and Clive, whose own interest in the mower and its inventor has led to a museum and charity both dedicated to his hero, not to mention his vast collection of mowers spanning 150 years.

Two Men Went to Mow is one of a small, but growing, number of books about mower history and collecting. We've recently revamped the list of these on our website. The page contains links to order the books.
