Fringes
Updated edition of the #1 Amazon Bestseller LONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR PRIZE 2020 Sports books tend to detail extraordinary achievements, triumphs against the odds or commemorate World Cup winning captains. This book does not do that. For many, playing professional sport is the Dream Job. Few manage it, very few make it to the top and for the rest, life is very different. This is their story. In Fringes, Ben Mercer invites you to witness life at the outer edges of professional rugby. This is a first hand account of what life is like as a journeyman professional athlete. You play, but to the wider public you don't exist. You earn but you don't drive a flash car. Y...

Mates!
At the height of Australia s 1970s recession, two young men leave home seeking fame and fortune. They travel through Queensland s outback looking for work and arrive in Mount Isa, near broke. The city takes them in and so begins the adventure of creating their lives in the remote, rough and tumble environment of one of Australia s biggest mining communities. Set in among the hot, dry and arid landscape of Queensland s Gulf Country, the two newcomers discover both the delights and difficulties of living far inland from their coastal origins. A variety of jobs take them to places that few people would have ever experienced, from prospecting deep in the bush to dark, damp mines located thousands of metres underground. Mates is a great story infused with warm Australian characteristics and humour. The region s great mining history, Aboriginal people and extraordinary bushland have all been thoroughly researched and richly described by author Stephen Outram.

My Family Through Six Generations
Best known as a Norfolk ornithologist, Moss Taylor’s autobiography, My Family Through Six Generations, pays scant attention to this aspect of his life. Rather, it focuses on his family history from the late Victorian and Edwardian period in Southampton to the early years of the 21st century. Both his grandfather and father were members of the Magic Circle, while an interest in photography has permeated through four generations. Educated at Chigwell School in Essex, Moss qualified in medicine at London’s Royal Free School of Medicine and eventually worked as a general practitioner at Sheringham, in north Norfolk. It was while working in Great Yarmouth that he met his future wife, Fran, who devoted her life to her husband and their three sons. Her tragic death from cancer forms the moving finale to the book.
Rethinking Coal
"The 2016 Nobel Laureate in Literature has eloquently characterized the coal situation today: "The times they are a-changin'." On or about December 2010, the coal industry worldwide seemed to be in great shape. Global demand for coal had not only recovered from the 2008 recession, but was by then expanding at annual rates"--
Time Line Warriors
When Tom and Wilma Weston stepped aboard the cruise ship, Sea King, they were unaware that they were embarking on the adventure of a lifetime. Tom, a retired Coast Guard captain, was aware that gateways to parallel worlds had been discovered, so he understood what happened when a bank of mist appeared on the surface of the sea. He was surprised when an early 19th century warship flying a British flag came out of it. ... When gates start opening randomly, warships from a world that had destroyed itself with nuclear and biological weapons appear bringing terror on the high seas-- Dust jacket.
Gemmology
This second edition 'Gemmology' has been expanded and updated throughout by the well known writer and editor of Butterworth-Heinemann's gemmology series, Peter Read. This is a much needed update of a classic text and new syllabus information and sample examination theory papers for the Gemmological Association's Preliminary and Diploma courses are included. The additions also incorporate more recent developments, such as the introduction of synthetic moissanite and the De Beer's instruments for distinguishing between natural and synthetic diamonds. 'Gemmology' still serves as a useful reference guide for gemmologists detailing the latest natural and synthetic gem materials and is an invaluable text for anyone in the gemmological profession.
