Tratman Award, 2019
The prestigious Tratman Award (in memory of E.K. Tratman, who died in 1978) is awarded annually for a caving-related, paper-based publication, to recognise excellence and encourage future improvement. It is one of the UK’s premier national caving awards, but is open to authors and publishers from Britain and Ireland.
First awarded for the publications of 1979, the Tratman Award was administered by the Ghar Parau Foundation when the foundation was a sub-charity of BCRA, but since 2019 (presenting the awards of 2018) when the foundation became an independent charity it has been directly awarded by BCRA. The judges are independent of the association and look for not only a high standard of writing and information content, but also factors such as the publication’s layout, print quality, binding and availability. The current award covers the publications of 2019 and was judged by Joe Duxbury, Ric Halliwell

Austin Chronicle cover story, in which six individuals involved in the creation of the landmark 1996 album share stories and reflections, producer Paul Leary recounts Sublime’s “long, dilapidated” RV getting stuck up the hill upon entry to Willie Nelson’s Pedernales Studio in Spicewood, where the foundation of the album was tracked, before overdubs and mixing took place at Arlyn Studios.
“I went out to meet them and they had all their dogs with them, even though I told them not to bring them,” Leary recalls. “They weren’t going to go anywhere without their dogs.”
