Get ready to follow dazzling young writer George Mann to a London unlike any you've ever seen and into an adventure you will never forget, in The Affinity Bridge. Welcome to the bizarre and dangerous world of Victorian London, a city teetering on the edge of revolution. Its people are ushering in a new era of technology, dazzled each day by unfamiliar inventions. Airships soar in the skies over the city, while ground trains rumble through the streets and clockwork automatons are programmed to carry out menial tasks in the offices of lawyers, policemen, and journalists. But beneath this shiny veneer of progress lurks a sinister side. Queen Victoria is kept alive by a primitive life-support sy...

Frank and George Mann: Brewing, Batting and Captaincy

Father and Son: Middlesex and England: Beer and Skittles: Fame and Fortune. Between them Frank and George Mann achieved, in varying measure, all these word pairs in the first half of the twentieth century. They both captained Middlesex to the County Championship and led successful England sides on tours to South Africa. Until the takeover frenzy of the 1970s, the family’s highly successful brewery business, based in East London, was a leading player in the social fabric of southern England. Mann’s Brown Ale can still be found on supermarket shelves today. Both served in Britain’s armed forces outside its shores. Both filled middle-order batting positions for county and country; they took catches, often painfully, at mid off; and every so often they sent down a few deliveries to help bring a match to its conclusion. Frank’s mighty hitting emptied beer tents, sometimes to the detriment of sales of his brewery’s products. George’s management skills were brought to bear on the administration of English cricket. Using material from a wide range of sources, Brian Rendell here brings together a story far larger than the 20,000 first-class runs they scored between them.
