It sounds like the same material but I don't know if they are physically the same recordings or not. From the TARS LIBRARY Catalogue, 2001, Page 24:
"AR - Voice Tapes - BBC Recordings
"Tape 1 - The Stolen Turnips; The 'V' on the Water; Dressing Flies for Fun; Flies in General.
"Tape 2 - Fishing: In Books & In Fact; The Soldier and Death; The Benign Moment; On Giving Advice to Beginners.
"The fishing items were recorded in 1956 and 1957. The Stolen Turnips and The Soldier and Death recorded in 1948.
"Ransome's voice is very clear, very precise, rather clipped, very BBC. A good broadcasting voice."
Very enjoyable even though I thought I remember CDs and not tapes.
