Round the Bend - Jeremy Clarkson

Jeremy Clarkson gets really riled in Round the Bend.What''s it like to drive a car that''s actively trying to kill you?This and many other burning questions trouble Jeremy Clarkson as he sets out to explore the world from the safety of four wheels. Avoiding the legions of power-crazed traffic wombles attempting to block highway and byway, he he:* Shows how the world of performance cars may be likened to Battersea Dogs Home* Reveals why St Moritz may be the most bonkers town in all of the world* Reminds us that Switzerland is so afraid of snow that any flakes falling on the road are immediately arrested* Argues that washing a car is a waste of timeFunny, globe-trotting, irreverent and sometimes downright rude, Round the Bend is packed with curious and fascinating but otherwise hopelessly useless stories and facts about everything under the sun (and just occasionally cars). It''s Jeremy Clarkson at his brilliant best.Praise for Jeremy Clarkson''Brilliant . . . laugh-out-loud'' Daily Telegraph''Outrageously funny . . . will have you in stitches'' Time Out''Very funny . . .

In a series of bestselling books Jeremy has revealed it to be a puzzling, frustrating place where all too often the lunatics seem to be running the asylum. But in The Top Gear Years, we get something rather different. Because ten years ago, at an ex-RAF aerodrome in Surrey, Jeremy and his friends built a world that was rather more to his liking: they called it Top Gear HQ.

Welcome back to Clarkson's Farm.At the end of Jeremy's first year in the tractor's driving seat, Diddly Squat farm rewarded him with a profit of just GBP144. So, while he's the first to admit that he's still only a 'trainee farmer'*, there is clearly still work to be done.Because while he's mastered the art of moaning about nearly everything, some of the other attributes required of a successful farmer prove more of a challenge. Who knew, for instance, that loading a grain trailer was more demanding than flying an Apache gunship? That cows were more dangerous than motor-racing? Or that it would have been easier to get planning permission build a nuclear power station than to turn an old barn into a farm restaurant?But if the council planning department and the local red trouser brigade seem determine to frustrate his schemes at every turn, at least he's got Lisa, Kaleb, Cheerful Charlie and Gerald, his dry-stone-walling Head of Security to see him through.

Vím, že máš duši - Jeremy Clarkson

Motoristický pořad Top Gear sleduje po celém světě asi 350 milionů diváků, momentálně běží i na českém kanálu Prima Cool. Za jeho mimořádnou popularitou stojí zejména hlavní moderátor Jeremy Clarkson, autor této knihy. Začal ji psát, aby se vyznal ze své vášně pro auta a také aby zjistil, co vlastně lidi k nejrůznějším strojům tolik přitahuje. A k čemu došel? Že ty nejvíce fascinující automobily, letadla, ponorky, raketoplány a další technické výtvory mají jedno společné: za každým z nich najdeme nějakého vizionářského inženýra či nadšeného konstruktéra, který svému stroji vdechl "duši" a právě ta je tím, co nás ke strojům poutá. Mimoto se od Clarksona dozvíme některé zásadní informace, například kde se nejlíp schovat v případě nukleární války či kdo by vyhrál, kdyby se v souboji utkali Superman, James Bond a Terminátor. Jeremy Clarkson (1960) je britská moderátorská hvězda a autor dvanácti knižních bestsellerů. Miluje rychlá auta, která velmi svérázným způsobem testuje, představuje a komentuje ve svém pořadu Top Gear. Miliony fanoušků oceňují jeho břitký humor, který se nezastaví před ničím a před nikým. Svou obrovskou popularitu vysvětluje lapidárně: "Žijeme v nudném světě a náš pořad je proto vítanou změnou."

Fakt chci tak moc? - Jeremy Clarkson

Jeremy Clarkson, jedna z nejznámějších televizních osobností a bývalý moderátor motoristického pořadu Top Gear, jenž měl za jeho éry po světě stamiliony diváků, je velmi bystrý a taky vtipný novinář a publicista - a zajisté i ten nejvyšší a s nejvíce prořízlou pusou. Výbor z jeho článků představuje českému čtenáři pomyslnou a velmi vysokou laťku psaní nejen o autech, ale i o jiných příjemných i otravných jevech našeho každodenního života. Autor si nebere servítky před nikým a před ničím, ať je to ministerský předseda, ženská otázka, cyklisti, imigranti nebo nepořádek na ulicích. Vědomě a trefně se vysmívá především politické korektnosti, která ovládla Anglii i celou spojenou Evropu, a ukazuje opravdovou tvář lidí a stav našeho světa pomocí překotných, o to však legračnějších nadsázek. Jeremy Clarkson se narodil roku 1960 v Doncateru v hrabství Yorkshire do rodiny učitelky a obchodního cestujícího. Jako středoškolský student byl vyloučen ze soukromé školy v Reptonu za požívání alkoholu, kouření a nevhodné chování. Jeho prvním zaměstnáním bylo prodávat pro otcovu firmu plyšové figurky medvídka Paddingtona. Poté začal psát pro různé anglické listy, nejdříve lokální a pak i celostátní. Časem se vyprofiloval jako píšící odborník na automobily. Roku 1984 založil agenturu MPA, která se specializovala na testy ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Diddly Squat - Jeremy Clarkson

Welcome to Clarkson's farm. It's an idyllic spot, offering picturesque views across the Cotswolds, bustling hedgerows, woodlands and natural springs. Jeremy always liked the idea being a farmer. But, while he was barrelling around the world having more fun with cars than was entirely reasonable, it seemed obvious that the actual, you know, farming was much better left to someone else Then one day he decided he would do the farming himself. After all, how hard could it be? Well . . . Faced with suffocating red tape, biblical weather, local objections, a global pandemic and his own frankly staggering ignorance of how to 'do farming', Jeremy soon realises that turning the farm round is going to take more than splashing out on a massive tractor. Fortunately, there's help at hand from a large and (mostly) willing team including girlfriend Lisa, Kaleb the Tractor Driver, Cheerful Charlie, Ellen the Shepherd and Gerald, his Head of Security and Dry Stone Waller. Between them they enthusiastically cultivate crops, rear livestock and hens, keep bees, bottle spring water and open a farm shop. But profits remain elusive.

Horší je, že teď mám něco, co je ze všeho nejnebezpečnější: trochu znalostí. Například poznám rozdíl mezi pšenicí a ječmenem... Ale ze všeho nejlépe vím, že farmaření je nesmírně náročná, i když nic moc placená práce.“ Clarkson píše s břitkým anglickým vtipem a nadhledem, humor ho však trochu přechází, když třeba glosuje vystoupení Velké Británie z Evropské unie, které kromě jiných důsledků silně poškodilo britské farmáře. Nepropadá však beznaději a dodává optimismus všem stejně postiženým, kteří rozjížděli nové projekty, ve kterých se měly otáčet peníze, aby pak jen s hrůzou sledovali, s jak nákladným neúspěchem končí. Ale i když se něco nedaří, alespoň nás Jeremy Clarkson pobaví.

Following the Bend takes readers on a majestic journey by water to find answers, along the way shedding light on the key concepts of modern river science, from hydrology and water chemistry to stream and wetland ecology.In this accessible and uniquely personal book, Ellen Wohl explains how to “read” a river, blending the latest science with her own personal experiences as a geologist and naturalist who has worked on rivers for more than three decades. She charts how water travels through the hydrologic cycle around the globe and downstream to distribute energy, move sediment, and shape river channels, and how living organisms adapt to life in flowing water to create vibrant river ecosystems. Wohl looks at the role of disturbances such as floods and droughts and discusses how geologists interpret the sedimentary records of past river processes. She illustrates how river networks interact with Earth’s surface and considers issues for rivers in the future, such as progressive drying, river restoration, and advocating for the legal personhood of a river to maintain its ...

The Bend for Home - Dermot Healy

One day, years after he''s moved away from his childhood home in rural Ireland, Dermot Healy returns to care for his ailing mother. Out of the blue she hands him the forgotten diary he had kept as a fifteen-year-old. He is amazed to find the makings of the writer he has become, as well as taken aback at the changes his memory has wrought. The silhouettes who have haunted his past come back to inhabit his pages: his father, a kind policeman who plays cards and drinks stout with his cronies; his mother, whose stories young Dermot has heard so often that he believes they are his own; or Aunt Maisie, whose early disappointment in love has left her both dreamy and cynical. Funny, direct and moving, The Bend For Home is a family portrait like no other, and a hugely engaging account of a childhood in small-town Ireland.

A Brief History of the Mediterranean - Jeremy Black

A wonderfully concise and readable, yet comprehensive, history of the Mediterranean Sea, the perfect companion for any visitor -- or indeed, anyone compelled to stay at home.''The grand object of travelling is to see the shores of the Mediterranean.''Samuel Johnson, 1776The Mediterranean has always been a leading stage for world history; it is also visited each year by tens of millions of tourists, both local and international. Jeremy Black provides an account in which the experience of travel is foremost: travel for tourism, for trade, for war, for migration, for culture, or, as so often, for a variety of reasons. Travellers have always had a variety of goals and situations, from rulers to slaves, merchants to pirates, and Black covers them all, from Phoenicians travelling for trade to the modern tourist sailing for pleasure and cruising in great comfort.Throughout the book the emphasis is on the sea, on coastal regions and on port cities visited by cruise liners - Athens, Barcelona, Naples, Palermo.

The Encyclopedia of Oil Techniques - Jeremy Galton

Oil paint is such a responsive and versatile medium that no two painters need use it in exactly the same way, and since its invention in Renaissance times it has never lost its popularity with artists. Amateurs also find it appealing, not only because it is enjoyable to use but also because mistakes can be easily rectified, yet in many cases mistakes would not occur if the individual had a sound knowledge of technique. In the A-Z section of the book, Jeremy Galton, a practising painter, explains how to build up a painting, how and when to work "wet into wet", and how to make your brushwork describe forms and textures. He also provides a wealth of stimulating ideas such as combining oil paints with other media, mixing paint with sand and sawdust and applying it with knives, rags or the fingers. In the second part of the book, Themes, you can see the techniques in context. Illustrated with a gallery of paintings by well-known artists as well as informative step-by-step demonstrations, it shows how each person applies his or her knowledge of oil painting techniques to the interpretation of a subject, whether landscape, portrait or still life.

Shots Heard Round the World - John Ferling

From acclaimed historian John Ferling, a major, global reappraisal of the Revolutionary War on its 250th Anniversary.In April 1775, British troops marched to Lexington, where an armed group of Yankees awaited them. Despite an order to disperse, shots rang out. Militiamen were killed. The British continued marching, only to find even greater trouble in Concord and all the way down the road back to Boston. The Revolutionary War had begun.Shots Heard Round the World is a bold, comprehensive rendering of the world war that erupted out of America’s battle for independence. Ferling highlights underestimated pivotal moments to reveal why the British should have put down the rebellion within a couple years of fighting. As European rivals France, Spain, and the Dutch Republic entered the fray, Britain’s problems grew, but after seven long years, the war’s outcome remained very much in doubt. Ferling assesses military and civilian leaders, the choices they faced, and the political, tactical, and strategic decisions they made as the war raged in North America, the Caribbean, Central America, Europe, Asia, and on the high seas, affecting peoples and countries miles from American soil.Long after the soldiers laid down their arms, future generations have reckoned with the Revolution ...

Mauled - Jeremy Evans

An inspiring true-life survival story set in the remote backcountry of the Canadian Rockies.In August 2017, 32-year-old Jeremy Evans endured multiple ferocious attacks by a protective female grizzly bear while hunting in the Alberta wilderness.Jeremy’s injuries were massive, his scalp and face destroyed, an eye and his jaw dangling down. The tendons on one leg had been fully severed during the mauling. His hands were damaged where he had physically fought the bear. It was more than a dozen kilometres to where he had parked his truck in darkness early that morning and absolutely no one was near. Thoughts of his wife and their eight-month-old daughter consumed Jeremy as he stumbled and crawled for hours back to his truck, before driving himself several kilometres to a backcountry lodge for help. All the while, Jeremy thought of his young family and the upcoming sixth wedding anniversary that he feared he might never be able to celebrate.Mauled carefully details what happened deep in an Alberta forest where few modern humans tread. Jeremy’s miraculous recovery and life lessons learned when so close to death show that human determination can defy the greatest of odds, and that setting small goals along the road to ...

A Brief History of the Pacific - Jeremy Black

This brilliantly concise history of the Pacific Ocean nevertheless succeeds in examining both the indigenous presence on ocean''s islands and Western control or influence over the its islands and shores. There is a particular focus on the period from the 1530s to 1890 with its greater Western coastal and oceanic presence in the Pacific, beginning with the Spanish takeover of the coasts of modern Central America, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, and continuing with the Spaniards in the Philippines. There is also an emphasis on the very different physical and human environments of the four quadrants of the Pacific - the north-east, the north-west, the south-east and the south-west - and of the ''coastal'' islands, that is the Aleutians, Japan and New Zealand, and continental coastlines. The focus is always on the interactions of Japan, California, Peru, Australia and other territories with the ocean, notably in terms of trade, migration and fishing.Black looks first at the geology, currents, winds and physical make-up of the Pacific, then the region''s indigenous inhabitants to 1520. He describes the Pacific before the arrival of Europeans, its history of settlement, navigation methods and religious practices.From Easter Island, the focus shifts to European voyages, from Magellan to ...

This total comprised eighteen full Generals; fifty-eight Generalleutnants and thirty-nine Generalmajors.

Culloden and the '45 - Jeremy Black

The Jacobite ’45 rebellion was one of the greatest challenges to the eighteenth-century British state, and the Battle of Culloden in which it culminated was certainly one of the most dramatic of the century.Based on extensive archival research, Culloden and the ’45 examines the political and military context of the uprising and highlights the seriousness of the challenge posed by the Jacobites. The result is an illuminating account of an episode often obscured by the perspectives of Stuart romance.

Jeremy Brett - Playing A Part - Maureen Whittaker

“Holmes could be rude, impatient, abrupt, and his intolerance of fools was legendary. I tried to show all this, all of the man’s incredible brilliance. But there are some cracks in Holmes’s marble, as in an almost-perfect Rodin statue. And I tried to show that, too. It’s difficult for me to say what I may have given to the image of Holmes. Faithful to Conan Doyle’s text, certainly. Also, I’ve tried to bring out the emotion that is there in Holmes. On the surface he seems a cold, sometimes dark, rather off-putting figure. But deeper down, I think, he’s a man of feeling.” JeremyJeremy Brett is still recognised as the most celebrated incarnation of Sherlock Holmes which he presented for ten years.
