The Definitive History of Arsenal at Highbury Stadium

Lessons from a High Flyer is the inspiring story of Michael Bishop, the boy who loved airplanes so much he built an airline. Lessons from a High Flyer is the inspiring story of Michael Bishop, the boy who loved airplanes so much he built an airline. Unhappy at public school, and passing only one exam in his life, he went on to become a major figure in global air travel, chair a national broadcaster, be honoured with a knighthood and elevated to the House of Lords. Along the way he suffered disaster - showing intuitive empathy in responding to a horrific air accident - and battled hard against the might of the establishment major airlines. He went into politics, championed human rights, donated millions to the arts and charities through the Michael Bishop Foundation, and meticulously restored two stately homes. His is a tale, told modestly with grace and humour, that truly lifts the heart and shows that there is really no such thing as impossible.

Lessons from a High Flyer

A thrilling celebration of a forgotten early American renegade, Not Your Founding Father reconsiders just how radical the American experiment could have been. Early in the morning of October 10, 1776—in the small farming community of Cumberland, Rhode Island, in a house surrounded by cherry trees—twenty-three-year-old Jemima Wilkinson died, and the Public Universal Friend was born. Old Cherry Wilkinson’s children had already gained a reputation for scandal. Two of his boys had been dismissed from the local Quaker meeting for joining the colonial militia, and one of the girls was expelled for having a baby out of wedlock. Now, here was another Wilkinson child, riding about the countryside, claiming to be a genderless messenger of God. Yet something about the Public Universal Friend set war-ravaged New England ablaze. The young minister seemed to embody the possibilities offered by the new nation, especially the right to total self-determination. To authorities, however, the minister was “the devil in petticoats,” a threat to the men who sought to keep America’s power for themselves. And so the Public Universal Friend ventured west to create an Eden on the frontier, a place where everyone would have the right to not only life, liberty, and the pursuit happiness, but also peace and shared prosperity. But into every Eden comes a snake. And soon, financial scams, contested wills, adultery, plagiarism, allegations of murder, and murmurs of another war with England would threaten to destroy this new American utopia.

Very Short Introductions

Best known as the author of Moby-Dick (1851), Herman Melville is one of America's greatest writers. His achievements range from popular novels and experimental fiction to powerful poetry. His works are tragic and funny, impassioned and ironic, obsessed with philosophical seeking and attuned to the details of everyday life. Melville engaged the pressing issues of his day, from economic inequality and the American slavery crisis to the rise of science and the fragility of democracy. He dwelled on timeless questions about loneliness and intimacy, moral and political responsibility, the limits of our knowledge and agency, and the place of human beings within nature and the cosmos. Melville's life was dramatic, and his career improbable. He was born into privilege, fell into poverty as an adolescent, hunted whales and lived with the Tai Pi people of Polynesia, served in the United States Navy, skyrocketed to fame as a novelist, ruined his career by challenging religious, political, sexual, and artistic conventions, reinvented himself as a poet, and died in relative obscurity just as readers began to appreciate his genius. The scope and diversity of Melville's literature reflects an artist of restless ambition. Herman Melville: A Very Short Introduction helps readers explore the richness of his work.

Based on the hit BBC 5Live podcast series, The Trillion Dollar Conman is a tale of audacious international fraud that is stranger than fiction. In 2009, Notts County FC were struggling to survive in League Two when they were taken over by a mysterious company supposedly backed by the Bahrain royal family. The club was promised millions of pounds worth of investment and marquee players, including Sol Campbell and Kasper Schmeichel, were signed by former England manager Sven-Göran Eriksson, who had been appointed to take the club all the way to the Premier League. However, within months, the dream turned into a nightmare as it transpired that the club, the players and the fans had been duped by a convicted fraudster called Russell King. The world's oldest professional football club found itself at the center of one of the most outlandish frauds in sporting history, which spanned the globe from Nottingham to North Korea, involving fake sheikhs, fast cars, broken promises and a trail of destruction.

In July 1973, at the age of 21, Mark Constantine OBE started making herbal hair products while studying to become a trichologist. Over 50 years later he still works out of his first hair and beauty clinic in Poole High Street, although today at the head of the global cosmetics retailer LUSH.Dear Johntells the rags to riches story of how a headstrong young man went from earning £20 a week treating hair and scalp conditions with home-made remedies; to becoming the major product inventor for The Body Shop; and co-founding the LUSH natural cosmetics brand operating 900 shops in over 45 countries.Mark's story came to a grinding halt in March 2020 when the Covid pandemic closed almost every LUSH shop in the world. Coming hard on the heels of Brexit, another body blow for LUSH which employs thousands of EU citizens both in the UK and across Europe, things couldn't get much worse. Unless you happened to operate 50 shops in Russia and Ukraine and a tragedy was about to envelop your family.Before all of Mark's success, two boys growing up in the seaside resort of Weymouth began a 60-year friendship, where one was the hare and the other, the tortoise. That journey reached an epic climax in South Africa in 2012 and it spurred the hare to keep on running even harder than before. Another decade has passed but the tortoise has finally caught up again, and is the author of this expanded second edition of Dear John, which brings the often controversial life of Mark Constantine and the story of LUSH right up to date.

'Two Women Living Together is a wonderfully calming and cosy read. I always adore stories of women who choose to live beyond the confines of cultural expectation-and this book might just be my new favourite!' - Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of both fiction and non-fiction, and a former judge for the 2025 Women's Prize. 'Everything about this compelling, curious, beautiful story of two women moving in together, in midlife, is delightful ... I loved every moment!' - Clover Stroud, author of My Wild &amp; Sleepless Nights, The Red of my Blood, and The Giant on the Skyline Quietly radical, full of warmth and wit, Two Women Living Together celebrates carving out your own path, cats, female friendship, and found family. At some point between living alone and becoming single, Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana found each other, and decided to live together in a nice apartment where their four cats would finally have the freedom to run around. Together they redefined what family looks and feels like. At a time housing costs have skyrocketed whilst the birth rates plummets, these two independent Korean women in their late forties share their views on society and its expectations of them. And, intent neither to marry or to live alone, they reflect on the comfort of their cohabiting friendship as it blossoms into a life full of joy and meaning. 'Inspiring' - Evening Standard 'Beneath the warmth lies a radical proposition: that their partnership should be treated like any family.' - Guardian
