A Brackley Childhood
John Clarke is the author of three books on the history of Brackley. Now his work takes on a more personal aspect as he describes his own childhood in the Brackley of the 1950s and early 1960s. His father, Charles Clarke, was a Booking Clerk at Brackley's 'Top' station and John introduces us to some of the characters -- station masters, signalmen and others -- who worked there. He also describes to us to of some of the most interesting people in the town -- doctors, shopkeepers, teachers and so on. We go with John through his education at Brackley Junior School and then at Magdalen College School, together with his piano lessons with Miss Judd. John has much to say about the Church, perhaps the most important institution in his early life, He examines the attributes, values and prejudices of 1950s Brackley, making us realise how much things have changed in the last 60 years. All of this is set against the background of John's relationship with his parents and grandparents, so this book, which includes over 80 photographs (many previously unpublished), gives us a unique insight into the Brackley that once was.

John Bates Clark
In this fresh study of the career and theoretical work of John Bates Clark, the first American economist to achieve international standing, Henry demonstrates that the usual interpretations of Clark are flawed, and that Clark set out to develop a theory of distribution that would support then current political authority and property relationships. Contrary to the normal view, it is shown that there is less of a difference between Clark's early 'Christian Socialist' writings and the writings of his mature period, and that perceptions and concerns formulated in his early career carry over into his more theoretically advanced stage. Also, Clark's religious perceptions are shown to have influenced not only his early thoughts, but those contained in the writings of the later period that brought him to the attention of economists in England and the Continent. Throughout this book, Henry demonstrates the relationship between Clark's theoretical work and the larger social forces then at work which both promoted and constrained his thinking and his economics.
Ignition!
This newly reissued debut book in the Rutgers University Press Classics Imprint is the story of the search for a rocket propellant which could be trusted to take man into space. This search was a hazardous enterprise carried out by rival labs who worked against the known laws of nature, with no guarantee of success or safety. Acclaimed scientist and sci-fi author John Drury Clark writes with irreverent and eyewitness immediacy about the development of the explosive fuels strong enough to negate the relentless restraints of gravity. The resulting volume is as much a memoir as a work of history, sharing a behind-the-scenes view of an enterprise which eventually took men to the moon, missiles to the planets, and satellites to outer space. A classic work in the history of science, and described as “a good book on rocket stuff…that’s a really fun one” by SpaceX founder Elon Musk, readers will want to get their hands on this influential classic, available for the first time in decades.
