To celebrate 50 years of polo at Smith's Lawn, Guards Polo Club commissioned Major Watson to write the definitive history of the sport at Windsor. Major Watson meticulously charts the development of Europe's largest polo club form its humble beginnings in a muddy field in the heart of Windsor Great Park to the present day.

J.N.P. Watson first became interested in art at Eton under the guidance of Wilfrid Blunt and later studied at the City and Guilds of London Art School. A regular officer in the Royal Horse Guards, he served in Germany, Egypt, Gibraltar and Cyprus, where he was mentioned in despatches. In 1982, he was awarded a Churchill Travelling Fellowship in recognition of his writings on animal welfare and wildlife conservation.
