Colin Sayer writes: ‘I retired in 1994 after
35 years teaching at Burwood Park School
for the Deaf. Two years later the school
closed and so I spent some years setting
up the Burwood Archive, now housed in
the Surrey History Centre, Woking, which
contains many documents, films, videos
and photographs relating to the history of
the school and the Norfolk House College
for the Deaf. My work Memories of Burwood,
a history of the school and college,
was published by the British Deaf History
Society in 2005 and I have been elected life
president of the Old Burwoodian Association.
A few years ago my wife and I set up a
small publishing company, Sayerpress, and
published our first book, The Liberation of
Europe 1944. This is a diary written by my
cousin, Captain G. Wilson, who landed early
on the morning of D-Day and fought with
the Green Howards to within 600 yards of
Arnhem. Profits, if any, will go to the Green
Howards museum in Richmond, Yorkshire.
We have also published A Royal Safari 1930,
and my own book Is Mankind Intelligent
Yet?’
