The Small Isles - John Hunter
Some ten thousand years ago, hunter-gatherers moving through a landscape newly emerged from the grip of the last Ice Age reached four islands on the western seaboard. The shores they landed on were deserted. After making camp, they struck out to hunt and explore. We know this because the evidence of their presence has been preserved down the millennia - in traces of flint and quartz, in charred fragments of grain and animal bone, in great heaped piles of ancient shellfish. The islands were Rum, Eigg, Canna and Muck - four distinctive shapes rising from the waters of the Inner Hebrides between Ardnamurchan and Skye. Collectively, they are known as the Small Isles.From those first moments on, people have been working these islands and using their resources, adapting each landscape to suit the changing needs of the communities they served. In this definitive new book, archaeologist John Hunter searches for the stories of the Small Isles in the evidence that survives - from the fragmentary physical remains of dwellings, defences, places of worship and monuments, to the records of early antiquarians, historians and travellers.This is a journey to rediscover communities that were erased by the mass migrations of the nineteenth ...

Old Man and the Sea - Ernest Hemingway
Ernest Hemingway’s most beloved and popular novel ever, with millions of copies sold—now featuring early drafts and supplementary material as well as a personal foreword by the only living son of the author, Patrick Hemingway, and an introduction by the author’s grandson Seán Hemingway.The last novel Ernest Hemingway saw published, The Old Man and the Sea has proved itself to be one of the enduring works of American fiction. It is the story of an old Cuban fisherman, down on his luck, and his supreme ordeal: a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Using the simple, powerful language of a fable, Hemingway takes the timeless themes of courage in the face of defeat and personal triumph won from loss and transforms them into a magnificent twentieth-century classic. Written in 1952, this hugely successful novel confirmed his power and presence in the literary world and played a large part in his winning the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature.

The Hunter - Julia Leigh
The hunter arrives in an isolated community in the Tasmanian wilderness with a single purpose in mind: to find the last thylacine, the tiger of fable, fear and legend. The man is in the employ of the mysterious ''Company'', but his sinister purpose is never revealed and as his relationship with a grieving mother and her two children becomes more ambiguous, the hunt becomes his own. Leigh''s Tasmania is a place where the wilderness can still claim lives; where the connection between people and the land is at best uneasy and cannot be trusted. In prose of exceptional clarity and elegance, Julia Leigh creates an unforgettable picture of a man obsessed by an almost mythical animal in a damp dangerous landscape. The Hunter is the work of a compelling storyteller and a truly remarkable literary stylist.

Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy / Fate & The Excursions of Mr Brouček - Jiří Zahrádka
Kniha pojednává o dvou pozoruhodných, i když divadly poněkud opomíjených Janáčkových operách Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy. Obě díla přišla na svět po dlouholeté skladatelově práci na jeho snad nejslavnější opeře Její pastorkyňa, během níž nalezl pro realistický námět adekvátní a zcela osobitý hudební jazyk, postavený na mluveném projevu. Ve svých následujících operách pak Janáček hledal nové způsoby, jak dále rozvíjet své skladatelské principy a užít je ve spojení s různorodými náměty. Právě období vzniku oper Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy tak patří k Janáčkovým nejzajímavějším tvůrčím, ale i osobním životním etapám. Tyto kompozice tvoří spojnici mezi Její pastorkyní a vrcholnými hudebnědramatickými díly z období Janáčkova "velkého stáří", v nichž skladatel po dlouhé tvůrčí cestě dospěl k dokonalé shodě slova, myšlenky a hudby. Kniha o operách Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy přináší o této nesnadné cestě svědectví v podobě mnoha informací o skladatelových inspiracích, zvažovaných námětech ke zhudebnění, neslavné spolupráci s literáty, Janáčkových setkáních s hudebními díly, která mu otevřela oči, ale také o vyrovnání se se ztrátou milované dcery Olgy. Zmiňuje rovněž skladatelova citová vzplanutí odrážející se v jeho tvůrčím procesu. Knihu doprovází bohatý a často unikátní obrazový materiál.

The Glory Game - Hunter Davies
When the first edition of The Glory Game was published in 1972, it was instantly hailed as the most insightful book about the life of a football club ever published. Hunter Davies was, and still is, the only author ever to be allowed into the inner sanctum of a top-level football team (Tottenham Hotspur) and his pen spared nothing and no one. ''His accuracy is sufficiently uncanny to be embarrassing,'' wrote Bob Wilson in the New Statesman. ''Brilliant, vicious, unmerciful,'' wrote The Sun. Davies spent a whole season with the team, training with them, visiting the players'' homes and witnessing the dressing-room confrontations. In the modern era of painstaking media management and tight security, no sportswriter will ever again be granted such unprecedented access. While some features of the game have changed beyond all recognition - notably the all-consuming role that money now plays - inside every club the dramas and tensions revealed by Davies remain, making the book a timeless classic and securing its position as one of the best books about football ever written.

Herne The Hunter - Ed Newell
Herne the Hunter: Seeking Shakespeare’s Ghost, Windsor’s Demon, Wicca’s God unravels an intriguing process of mythmaking to show how the familiar antlered man of British folklore has his origins not, as commonly assumed, in local legend or ancient Celtic myth, but as a creation of William Shakespeare.Through speculation, wishful thinking, misunderstanding, and an amazing cast of people – including George III, Queen Victoria, Jacob Grimm, Margaret Murray, Gerald Gardner, Arthur Sullivan, and major literary figures such as Richard Brindley Sheridan, William Harrison Ainsworth John Masefield, Robert Graves, Alan Garner, Susan Cooper, and Terry Pratchett – Herne has transformed from Shakespeare’s joke (in The Merry Wives of Windsor) to a famous ghost, a legendary figure of popular culture (The Box of Delights and TV’s Robin of Sherwood) and a manifestation of the Celtic horned god Cernunnos in the Wicca religion.This fascinating historical investigation by Edmund Newell is illustrated with beautiful original artwork by printmaker Charles Shearer – including the eye-catching cover art and eight colour illustrations inside the book.

Even knowing the Angels I couldn''t quite handle what I was seeing.'' Huge bikes, filthy denim and an aura of barely contained violence; the Hell''s Angels could paralyse whole towns with fear.
