Lobby Life
The unassuming brown laminated card issued to Westminster lobby journalists is a VIP pass to the heart of our political world, allowing reporters to roam the corridors of power, to collar MPs for a private word. As a Political Correspondent for the BBC, Carole Walker was a member of this exclusive club for more than twenty years, attending hundreds of Lobby briefings with a front-row seat for Alastair Campbell's The Thick of It-style pronouncements and hanging out with a succession of prime ministers - always with an eye on the story. Drawing on interviews with former colleagues, politicians, spin doctors and critics of the system, as well as first-hand insight, Lobby Life tells the intrigui...

A Saviour of Living Cargoes
Caroline Chisholm¿s philanthropic work was of lasting benefit to British emigrants and colonies - to Australia in particular. In New South Wales, she found shelter and employment for female immigrants and pressed officials to adopt her schemes for settling families on the land. In London, she arranged free passages for emancipists¿ wives and children and encouraged families to emigrate to Australia. In the Victorian goldfields, she provided accommodation for the needy traveller. Tireless and resourceful, she cared little for personal reward or position; and by her own endeavours and careful persuasion, she demonstrated her faith in people, the strength of womanhood, and the need to protect the vulnerable and help working people and their families. This biography casts new light on her life and achievements.

Horse Photography
Why photograph horses? Because, in the words of author Carol Walker, they "fill our hearts", and capturing them on film or in digital images expresses that relationship. We want to catch and hold -- and show -- their spirit, their tremendous joy in living, their unique personalities, and of course, their incomparable beauty. And we want the quality of our images to honour our glorious subjects. Photographing horses presents a double challenge, the first being the technical aspects -- the lenses, the setting, the light and speed, and how all those relate to the subject. The second element is more elusive; it is horse knowledge -- the educated ability to see how a horse moves, sense its moods,...
Limited Engagement
After three years of planning, Kirkland College opened in 1968 as a small, liberal arts college for women, coordinate to Hamilton College in upstate New York. The author was the first, last and only President. Planners envisioned a female counterpart of Hamilton which could introduce women without distressing alumni, and allow needed curricular expansion. But Kirklands advisors and administrators wanted innovation. Its openness, inclusiveness and curricular choices affronted many Hamiltonians. When, at last, Kirkland sought further support to undertake a necessary endowment campaign, Hamilton let the young college go under in a contentious and wasteful way. It closed in 1978.
