Roots, Radicals and Rockers
SHORTLISTED FOR THE PENDERYN MUSIC BOOK PRIZERoots, Radicals & Rockers: How Skiffle Changed the World is the first book to explore this phenomenon in depth - a meticulously researched and joyous account that explains how skiffle sparked a revolution that shaped pop music as we have come to know it. It's a story of jazz pilgrims and blues blowers, Teddy Boys and beatnik girls, coffee-bar bohemians and refugees from the McCarthyite witch-hunts.

No Focus
A complete overview of punk film that also covers the birth of the music video, post-industrial and euro-trash punk documentaries, classic and obscure movies inspired by punk rock and street/youth subculture (from Jubilee and Repo Man to The Filth And The Fury and 24-hour Party People) and proto-punk in the shape of Bunuel and the Surrealist films. Packed with new and exclusive interviews with leading film directors, No Focus provides both technical and anecdotal insights. Also includes rafts of rare punk photos, posters and images.
Everyday Missions
It's not every day that you get a visit from God. Burning bushes, ladders to heaven, chariots of fire and all that--we look for those stories in the Bible, and we look for them in our lives. When it comes to something as important as what we do with our lives, we think, maybe God owes us a big event. But, as Leroy Barber has learned through his work in inner cities and with young people, that's not usually how it works. More often God calls out to us from everyday misfortunes and all-too-common injustices, and he invites our response--not just a response in the moment, but a recognition that we have a role to play in seeing God's kingdom come, God's will done, on earth as it is in heaven. Through the surprisingly normal stories of the heroes of faith in the Bible, and through Barber's experiences with Mission Year and other ministries, in this book you'll learn what it means to change the world from your own little space in it.
