Agent Zo - Mulley Clare
This is the incredible story of Elzbieta Zawacka, the WW2 female resistance fighter known as Agent Zo. Agent Zo was the only woman to reach London from Warsaw during the Second World War as an emissary of the Polish Home Army command, and then in Britain she became the only woman to join the Polish elite Special Forces, known as the 'Silent Unseen'. She was secretly trained in the British countryside, and then the only female member of these SOE affiliated forces to be parachuted back behind enemy lines to Nazi-occupied Poland.There, whilst being hunted by the Gestapo who arrested her entire family, she took a leading role in the Warsaw Uprising and the liberation of Poland.After the war she was demobbed as one of the most highly decorated women in Polish history. Yet the Soviet-backed post-war Communist regime not only imprisoned her, but also ensured that her remarkable story remained hidden for over forty years. Now, through new archival research and exclusive interviews with people who knew and fought alongside Zo, Clare Mulley brings this forgotten heroine back to life, and also transforms how we see the history of women's agency in the Second World War.

The Spy Who Loved - Mulley Clare
''Compulsively readable . . . thrilling'' – Sunday Telegraph''Brings alive a glamorous, swashbuckling heroine'' – Sunday TimesIn June 1952, a woman was murdered by an obsessive colleague in a hotel in South Kensington. Her name was Christine Granville – Churchill''s favourite spy. That she died young was perhaps unsurprising. That she had survived the Second World War was remarkable.The daughter of a feckless Polish aristocrat and his wealthy Jewish wife, Christine fled to Britain on the outbreak of war and persuaded MI6 to make her their first female recruit. She took on mission after mission, skiing into occupied Poland, serving in Egypt and later parachuting into occupied France.Her quick wit, courage and determination won her release from arrest more than once, and she saved the lives of several fellow officers, including one of her many lovers just hours before he was due to be executed by the Gestapo.Of more strategic importance, the intelligence she smuggled to Britain, and her service in France, including single-handedly securing the defection of an entire Nazi German garrison, was a significant contribution to the Allied war effort. She was awarded the George Medal, the OBE and the Croix de Guerre.In The Spy Who Loved Mulley ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Within a day of the explosion, six men - Paddy Hill, Gerry Hunter, Richard McIlkenny, Billy Power, Johnny Walker and Hughie Callaghan - were arrested and charged. All were found guilty.Methodically, with total clarity and a tone that is both gripping and impassioned, then investigative journalist Mullin unpicked every detail of the case, revealing gaping holes in the prosecution case and the horrifying consequences of an establishment determined to close ranks.Now 50 years on from the Birmingham Bombings and with new writing from Mullin, this ...

Mull, Iona & Ardnamurchan - Alan McKirdy
Lying off the south-western tip of Mull, the island of Iona has huge significance as the first important centre of Christianity in Scotland. But the Abbey itself is built upon rocks that tell of events of much greater antiquity: the Lewisian gneisses of western Iona are some of the oldest rocks in the world. Alan McKirdy explores the fascinating geology of the area - in particular the eruption of two major volcanoes around 60 million years ago whose magma chambers formed the spectacular hills and glens of the Ardnamurchan peninsula and Glen More on Mull; and the Ice Age, when glaciers ripped away much of the upper part of the two volcanoes and sandpapered the landscape to create the rounded contours we see today.

A View From The Foothills - Chris Mullin
''It is said that failed politicians make the best diarists. In which case I am in with a chance.'' Chris MullinChris Mullin has been a Labour MP for twenty years, and despite his refusal to toe the party line - on issues like 90 days detention, for example - he has held several prominent posts. To the apoplexy of the whips, he was for a time the only person appointed to government who voted against the Iraq War. He also chaired the Home Affairs Select Committee and was a member of the Parliamentary Committee, giving him direct access to the court of Tony Blair.Irreverent, wry and candid, Mullin''s keen sense of the ridiculous allows him to give a far clearer insight into the workings of Government than other, more overtly successful politicians. He offers humorous and incisive takes on all aspects of political life: from the build-up to Iraq, to the scandalous sums of tax-payers'' money spent on ministerial cars he didn''t want to use. His critically acclaimed diary will entertain and amuse far beyond the political classes.

On the backbenches but still in the thick of it, Decline and Fall runs from Chris Mullin''s sacking as a minister by Tony (''The Man'') Blair in 2005 to the fall of New Labour in May 2010. Here is politics as it really is: entertaining encounters with constituents and conspirators, tantalising glimpses behind the scenes at the courts of Blair and Brown, all set against the background of the global financial crisis and the great expenses meltdown.Every bit as funny and insightful as his first volume A View From The Foothills, these new diaries provide a snapshot of life in the Westminster village. Preparing to step down after twenty-three years as an MP, Mullin wryly observes ''they say failed politicians make the best diarists, in which case I am in with a chance''.

New Survey of Clare Island Volume 10: Land and freshwater fauna
Field naturalists have searched across Clare Island for animal groups ranging from the microscopic to birds and mammals. Many more species have been found since the original survey a hundred years ago, due to the availability of modern methods, which greatly add to our knowledge of the biodiversity of Clare Island. The lists of species featured here include some new to the island, some new to Ireland and some new to science. This volume signals the need for further field work and taxonomic research to track biodiversity changes arising from human activity. Land and freshwater fauna is the tenth volume in the New Survey of Clare Island series, which seeks to build on the pioneering work of the first Clare Island Survey (1909–11), the most ambitious natural history project ever undertaken in Ireland and the first major biological survey of a specific area carried out in the world.

John Clare - Bate Jonathan
‘What distinguished Clare is an unspectacular joy and a love for the inexorable one-thing-after-anotherness of the world’ Seamus Heaney John Clare (1793-1864) was a great Romantic poet, with a name to rival that of Blake, Byron, Wordsworth or Shelley – and a life to match. The ‘poet’s poet’, he has a place in the national pantheon and, more tangibly, a plaque in Westminster Abbey’s Poets’ Corner, unveiled in 1989. Here at last is Clare’s full story, from his birth in poverty and employment as an agricultural labourer, via his burgeoning promise as a writer – cultivated under the gaze of rival patrons – and moment of fame, in the company of John Keats, as the toast of literary London, to his final decline into mental illness and the last years of his life, confined in asylums. Clare’s ringing voice – quick-witted, passionate, vulnerable, courageous – emerges through extracts from his letters, journals, autobiographical writings and poems, as Jonathan Bate brings this complex man, his revered work and his ribald world, vividly to life.

Temné lsti 1 - Paní půlnoci - Cassandra Clare
Los Angeles, 2012. Je tomu již pět let, co dvanáctiletá lovkyně stínů Emma Carstairsová přišla za Temné války o oba rodiče. Dnes už Emma dávno není dítě, ale mladá žena odhodlaná k pátrání a pomstě. Spolu se svým parabátai Juliánem Blackthornem musí překazit nekalé spiknutí a rozbít síť temné mafie, jejíž dlouhé prsty sahají od Sunset Stripu až k magickým hlubinám oceánu a plážím v Santa Monice. Aby to dokázala, musí se však naučit důvěřovat svému srdci, které ji, zdá se, svádí na scestí…Románem Paní půlnoci otevírá Cassandra Clare další strhující a vášnivou trilogii ze světa lovců stínů.---Cassandra Clare je autorkou úspěšných fantasy ság (Nástroje smrti, Pekelné stroje a další), které si podmanily statisíce čtenářů. Narodila se americkým rodičům v Teheránu a dětství strávila na cestách, s kufry plnými klasických fantasy knížek. Několik let pak pracovala jako novinářka v časopisech o celebritách, než se pustila do psaní románů, a již první sérií ze světa lovců stínů si získala přízeň čtenářů. Její temně romantické i napínavé příběhy se od té doby staly kultem. „Nástroje smrti jsou světem, ve kterém ráda žiju,“ napsala o jejích knihách autorka Stmívání Stephenie Mayerová.

Životy lovců stínů svazuje povinnost. Parabátai bojují bok po boku a stejně tak i umírají, ale nikdy se do sebe nesmějí zamilovat. Emma Carstairsová ví, že láska, kterou cítí ke svému parabátai Juliánu Blackthornovi, není jen zákonem zapovězená, ale mohla by je také oba zničit. Ví, že by se od Juliána měla držet dál, jenže jak by mohla, když rodina Blackthornových čelí nepřátelům hned na několika frontách? Jejich jedinou nadějí je Černý spis mrtvých, mocná kniha, kterou se všichni snaží získat. Není to snadný úkol.

Mistr Roger Federer a jeho brilantní kariéra - Christopher Clarey
Podle The New York Times vypráví tento bestsellerový životopis životní příběh nejikoničtějšího hráče moderní éry. Sice existují další biografie Rogera Federera, ale nikdy žádný s takovým blízkým přístupem k hráči, jeho podpůrnému týmu a nejvýraznějším postávám tenisové hry, včetně takových rivalů jako jsou Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovič, či Andy Roddick. V knize "Mistr" si korespondent The New York Times Christopher Clarey sedl s Rogerem Federerem a jeho nejbližšími, aby vyprávěli příběh největšího hráče mužského tenisu. Roger Federer předváděl tenis neuvěřitelně lehce déle než dekádu a to krásným nápřahem u bekhendu, klouzáním do forhendu, při smečích ve výskoku popíráním gravitace a zůstával vysoko na světových stupních vítězů ve sportu právem zaplaveného cynismem. Jeho cesta od temperamentního odbarveného teenagera s pochybným stylem až k jednomu z největších, nejvyrovnanějších a nejelegantnějších světových hráčů tenisu, kteří vládli dlouhodobě vůlí a ne osudem, je inspirující. Měl nejen velký talent, ale i drzost. Christopher Clarey je jeden z předních mezinárodních sportovních spisovatelů současnosti a Federerovi se věnuje od počátku jeho kariéry. Byl přítomný na Roland Garros na kurtě Suzanne Lenglenové na Federeově prvním grandslamovém zápase a exkluzivně s ním udělal nejvíce rozhovorů než kterýkoliv jiný novinář od jeho vzestupu na výsluní.

Left to their own devices, they had to learn life''s toughest lessons through the animals, and through their adventures in the stables and the idyllic Hampshire Downs. From the protective Candy to the pot-bellied Valkyrie and the frisky Hattie, each horse and each dog had their own character and their own special part to play.The running family joke was that "women ain''t people".
