Untitled Araminta Hall 2025

A unique account of the opening weeks of history's largest, most brutal conflict, told through the eyes of those who were there and based on original source material from across Europe.

Germany's Invasion of Russia, June-July 1941

Opening the Gates of Hell

This is the story of the last generation of British miners: fathers and sons, brothers and comrades, big hitters and broken men, strikers and scabs. Men for whom the masculine world of pit was all they had ever known, who reluctantly emerged into the daylight for the final time, and others who were happier to consign the dust and darkness to the past. It explores how these men felt when the pits were closed and what happened next, including former miners who became factory workers, detectives, driving instructors, counsellors, the local mayor and one who even ended up working on Fleet Street. Featuring accounts from Ayrshire to the South Wales Valleys, from the 'People's Republic of South Yorkshire', to the 'Sunshine Corner Coalfields' of Kent, each chapter offers a different perspective of the industry. Britain's last deep coalmine closed in 2015, yet just fifty years ago the mining industry was a juggernaut, employing over 250,000 workers. Combining new personal interviews with extensive archival research, Emily P. Webber illuminates the extraordinary history of the industry once considered the backbone of Britain. By situating the miners' strike of 1984-85 in a longer history of the coalfields, we can understand why miners and their families fought so hard against pit closures, and what happened after the pit wheels stopped turning. Vivid, evocative and richly alive with minute detail, Mining Men explores what the mining industry once meant to its workers and their communities, and what Britain lost when it was gone.

Mining Men

This book will tell the full story of one of the most exciting, dramatic and shocking tales of modern times.

PREORDER THE HEART-STOPPING BOOK EVERYONE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT IN 2024 The extraordinary story that united the nation to bring a mother home On 3 April 2016 Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was at the airport in Tehran, getting ready to board her flight with her baby daughter. They'd been visiting family in Iran, and were looking forward to getting home and seeing Richard, who would be there to meet them. When a man suddenly appeared and marched Nazanin away, they couldn't know their family was about to be changed forever. That moment would test their love, confront five foreign secretaries and take an ordinary family behind the curtain of international hostage diplomacy and secret debts. Their story galvanised a campaign of hope for millions, which would eventually free Nazanin and bring her home. Six years later, almost to the day, Nazanin landed back in the UK. This is the full account of that long journey, told by Nazanin and Richard for the very first time.

A Story of Love, Resistance and Hope

"As the British fashion industry took off in the post-war period, the figure of the photographic fashion model rapidly came to represent a new mode of femininity: independent, successful, and fashionably dressed. Fashioning a Life explores the wealth of life writing surrounding these glamourous 'Model Girls', from autobiography and memoir to advice literature. The book draws on a wealth of archival research and the writing of professional women in the field - including Jean Shrimpton, Mary Quant, and Janey Ironside - and explores these narratives through the lens of the popular culture and mass media of the late 1950s and 1960s"--

Examining histories of post-war Britain, fashion, modelling, photography and popular culture, 1960s Model Girl: Narrative Identities in Fashion, Time and History explores model girl narratives found throughout media, fashion magazines, advice literature, auto/biographies and fashion exhibits.
 
Introducing theories of history, life-writing and narrative identity, 1960s Model Girl demonstrates how these can be applied to the study of fashion and shows how fashion studies open new pathways to understanding identity and emergent British femininities. Drawing on a wealth of archival research, case studies include teen fashion magazines Petticoat and Model Girl; advice writing of model agent Lucie Clayton and fashion journalist Suzy Menkes; autobiographies of fashion models Jean Shrimpton and Twiggy; and the Mary Quant exhibition, Victoria and Albert Museum, London (2019-2020).
 
This book provides an intricate study of a varied and manifold figure whose impact and influence spreads further afield than a particular time, place and professional context. Closely attending to a range of model girl narratives, 1960s Model Girl illuminates the cultural past and, in turn, sheds light on our own historical present.

The first part of a detailed study of one of the longest, and most brutal, tactical operations of World War II.

The first part of a detailed study of one of the longest, and most brutal, tactical operations of World War II. 

In September 1944, the Allied High Command continued to press eastwards with both the First and Ninth US Armies under Courtney Hodges and William Simpson. The proposed advance by Hodges' US First Army was a thrust through a wooded area known locally as the Hürtgenwald - or Hürtgen Forest - with Simpson's US Ninth Army making a parallel movement. On the opposing side, the German forces under the overall command of Walter Model would do all they could to defend the Reich, but also maintain a staging post for the forthcoming Battle of the Bulge. 

Fought in brutal terrain - heavily wooded, riven with razor sharp ridgelines and precipitous cliffs, and with a woefully inadequate road network - and in all elements, the Battle of Hürtgen Forest was a grinding and protracted encounter where gains were measured in feet and yards and not miles. This study explores the first phase of this bloody battle, including the 'Aachen Question' facing the Allies. Featuring stunning artwork, detailed maps and diagrams, and period images, this book provides a gripping narrative of the infamous clash in the Hürtgen Forest, concluding with an assessment of the situation in November 1944, and the preparations for the next phase of operations.

Hürtgen Forest 1944 (1)

The long-awaited, bracingly candid, and utterly unpredictable personal story of movie legend Donald Sutherland, sharing his deep passion for acting, his intense journey through success and loss, and every wild story in between As one of the most enduring actors in Hollywood, Donald Sutherland has made an indelible mark on the industry since his life-changing role in M*A*S*H catapulted him into the public eye nearly sixty years ago. With his raw honesty and wicked sense of humour, the renowned actor chronicles his life in this generation-defining book, cataloging with powerful detail his far too many brushes with death, his loving relationship with his parents, and behind-the-scenes stories of the movies he's starred in, including M*A*S*H, Klute, Kelly's Heroes, Don't Look Now, Ordinary People, JFK, The Eye Of the Needle, Fellini's Casanova, 1900, The Hunger Games, and more. In Made Up, But Still True, Sutherland offers an unfiltered account of his memories of his life that is deeply insightful, emotional, and often very funny. In 1937 he was treated for infantile paralysis, followed a couple of years later by a bacterial infection that required a hammer and chisel to clean up his mastoiditis. Later in life, a rheumatic fever could have killed him, and after that, a bout with spinal meningitis did kill him, but only for a few seconds, then left him in a coma that took him a good while to come out of. As a 16-year-old he experienced his first sexual relationship, his first love, his first lessons in love. She was twice his age and they had a wonderful time. He also reveals the onstage triumphs that began his career; the pitfalls that threatened it and the movies that burnished it; and the on and off-set hijinks that gave it all colour. With surprising candor and powerful, lyrical prose, these unforgettable reminiscences offer an unprecedented look at the remarkable life of a legendary-and legendarily private-Hollywood icon.

Made Up, But Still True

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.
