On the Marsh - Simon Barnes
'He does write beautifully, especially of his greatest love - our wild birds ... On The Marsh is a delightful read.' Christopher Hart, Daily MailHow the rewilding of eight acres of Norfolk marshland inspired a family and brought nature even closer to home. When writer Simon Barnes heard a Cetti's warbler sing out as he turned up to look at a house for sale, he knew immediately that he had found his new home. The fact that his garden backed onto an area of marshy land only increased the possibilities, but there was always the fear that it might end up in the wrong hands and be lost to development or intensive farming. His wife saw through the delicate negotiations for the purchase. Once they'd bought it, they began to manage it as a conservation area, working with the Wildlife Trust to ensure it became as appealing as possible to all species. For their son Eddie, who has Down's syndrome, it became a place of calm and inspiration. In On The Marsh, we see how nature can always bring surprises, and share in the triumphs as new animals - Chinese water deer, otters and hedgehogs - arrive, and watch as ...

Kick Out the Jams - Dave Marsh
Selected writings on three decades of popular music from one of the most influential critics of his generation.Spanning three decades worth of astute, acerbic, and overall astounding music writing, Kick Out the Jams is the first large-scale anthology of the work of renowned critic Dave Marsh.

That passion is evident in a heart-wrenching piece on Cobain’s suicide and legacy; a humorous attack on “Bono’s bullshit;” an indignant look at James Brown and the FBI; deep, revelatory probes into the work of underappreciated artists like Patty Griffin and Alejandro Escovedo; and inspiring insight into what drives Marsh as a writer, namely “a raging passion to explain things in the hope that others would not be trapped and to keep the way clear so that others from the trashy outskirts of barbarous America still had a place to stand—if not in the culture at large, at ...

DENIM: THE FABRIC THAT BUILT AMERICA 1935-1944 is a beautiful and irresistible portrait of an iconic cloth and a celebration of style''s most enduring inspiration. It is said that over 80 percent of the planet have owned an item of denim clothing.

And here is our original inspiration: defined over 70 years ago by hard-working people in their hard-working labours in a timeless look that has never gone out of style.

Recovering a Vintage Faith - Cory M. Marsh
Recovering the Fundamentals of Authentic EvangelicalismIn an age of evangelical confusion, Recovering a Vintage Faith boldly calls us back to the core of what evangelicalism is meant to be. Through a careful examination of Scripture and history, Cory Marsh argues that genuine evangelical identity is rooted in five fundamental convictions: the supremacy of Scripture, the exclusivity of Jesus for salvation, a zeal for evangelism, participation in theological education, and the necessity of consistent local church fellowship. Marsh contends these historic fundamentals have been obscured by cultural and political forces, celebrity personalities, and a lack of biblical grounding, resulting in a modern "evan-jello-calism" that is anything but stable. With clarity and conviction, he shows how returning to these essentials will anchor evangelicals in a vibrant, historically rooted faith that is driven by biblical belief and behavior rather than cultural trends. For anyone desiring a faith that is theologically robust, missionally passionate, and ecclesiologically grounded, Recovering a Vintage Faith is a timely and provocative manifesto. It issues a clarion call to embrace the fundamentals that have always defined authentic evangelicalism, providing a clear vision for what the evangelical church can and should be.

'The funniest, most satirical cartoon she has ever written – as well as, perhaps, the most prescient' OBSERVER"Very funny and self-hating in a good way" ZADIE SMITHFrom her pygmy goat farm in Vermont, a cartoonist named Alison Bechdel wonders: Can she pull humanity out of its death spiral by writing a scathing memoir about her own greed and privilege?But how can she just sit around writing a book when the world is hanging on a thread?In this hilariously skewering comic novel, Alison is existentially pained by a climate-challenged world and a country on the brink of civil war.

It’s a phenomenon that makes Alison, formerly on the cultural margins, the envy of her friend group. As the TV show racks up Emmy after Emmy, Alison’s own envy spirals. Surely writing her own wildly popular reality TV series wouldn’t be that hard? One that shows people how to free themselves from consumer capitalism and live a more ethical life?!In Spent, the celebrated, bestselling author of the modern classic Fun Home presents a laugh-out-loud and passionately political work of ...

Queens of the Age of Chivalry - Alison Weirová
The third volume of Alison Weir's magisterial history of the queens of medieval EnglandMedieval queens were seen as mere dynastic trophies, yet many of the Plantagenet queens of the High Middle Ages dramatically broke away from the restrictions imposed on their sex, as Alison Weir shows in this gripping group biography of England's fourteenth-century consorts.Using personal letters and wonderfully vivid sources, Alison Weir evokes the lives of five remarkable queens: Marguerite of France, Isabella of France, Philippa of Hainault, Anne of Bohemia and Isabella of Valois.The turbulent, brutal Age of Chivalry witnessed the Black Death, the Peasants' Revolt, the Hundred Years War against France and savage baronial wars against the monarchy in which these queens were passionately involved. Queens of the Age of Chivalry brilliantly recreates this truly dramatic period of history through the lives of five extraordinary women.
