Behind the Canvas
"Kevin Sinnott is one of the most popular artists in Britain: his figures in landscapes and images of human relationships are sought after by collectors and museums around the world. Part autobiography, part exploration of his art, in.Behind the Canvas Sinnott gives us a frank insight into his life and career as an artist, including boom and bust times in the art world. He also explores the prompts - artistic and personal - which underlie his work, now firmly anchored in Wales." "Set against the development of contemporary art over the last thirty years - trends, commodification, fairs and biennales, the artist as celebrity - Sinnott cuts through fashion to focus on the true nature of creativity. Written with intelligence and immediacy. and beautifully illustrated with over ninety of the artist's vivid paintings, Behind the Canvas is a compelling and timely book, in which art warmly embrace's its history and the artist's life. It tells the reader as much, more even, about the world of British art than any critical book."--BOOK JACKET.

Rugby League in New Zealand
This is the story of a sport told through its communities. Rugby League in New Zealand: A People’s History unveils the compelling journey of a game flourishing against the odds. Beginning with the game’s introduction to the country in 1907, Ryan Bodman reveals the deep-rooted connections between rugby league’s development and the evolving cultural fabric of New Zealand. By questioning the mythic status of rugby union in the nation’s identity, this history highlights how power, politics and people have collectively shaped the country’s sporting scene. Drawing on first-hand interviews and a wide range of illustrations and archival material, Bodman locates rugby league history in working-class suburbs, and among Kiingitanga Māori, Pasifika migrants, and clubs and communities across the country. The people behind the game share accounts of change, triumph and resilience, while emphasising rugby league’s lasting influence on New Zealanders’ lives.

Coffee is more than just a drink. It’s a ritual, a source of comfort, and a way to connect. And for those passionate about coffee, there’s nothing quite like the experience of roasting your own beans. But specialty coffee roasting is more than just a technical skill. It’s an art and a science, a way to express creativity, connect with the world, and positively impact the environment and the people who produce the coffee we love. This is the message of “The Roaster’s Manifesto,” a book that goes beyond the basics of coffee roasting to explore its more profound meaning and potential. The book covers everything from the history of coffee roasting to the business and entrepreneurship of starting a specialty coffee roasting business. But it goes beyond that, exploring the art and science of coffee roasting in an inspiring and profound way.
