Welcome to the Jesus College Boat Club 200th anniversary book page. 

Here you can buy the two fantastic new books that we have produced to celebrate the 200th anniversary: 

The Red Book is the absolutely essential companion for any one wanting the detail of the exploits of Jesus crews since 1994. Every crew name is in there and every result – if you were rowing in this period it's a must but there is lots in it for older rowers too with its almanac of results and an up-to-date chronological rowing history of the Club. 

The second book, For the Love of Rowing – 200 Years of Jesus College Boat Club, 1827-2027, is full of personal stories and anecdotes from tales of Olympic valour to finding love at a Boat Club Dinner. There are hundreds of photos charting a pictorial history of the JCBC from the 19th Century to the present day. So its a visual treat as well as being packed with captivating narratives and fascinating nuggets.

Together, For the Love of Rowing and the Red Book are the perfect way to mark the 200th anniversary of the JCBC.
