Keeping Up
'Throughout the England age groups, Batesy was the benchmark in terms of "that's what the best wicketkeeper is doing."' - Jos Buttler. Michael Bates was just 21 when he became Hampshire's first-choice wicketkeeper. His immaculate glove work quickly earned him a reputation for being one of the best keepers in the country. In 2012, 'Batesy' helped his boyhood club win both limited-overs trophies, his match-winning contribution in the CB40 final at Lord's is still talked about today. But despite Bates' clear ability behind the stumps, Hampshire replaced him the following season - an anonymous letter, received at Bates' home address, eerily predicting the news weeks earlier.

The New Australian Garden
The New Australian Garden is an insider's account of the journey to design, construct and plant 18 landmark gardens that represent a new movement in Australian landscape design - one where the relationship between architecture and garden is paramount. Landscaper Michael Bates, working alone and in collaboration with some of the greatest design talents in the field, creates spaces that connect indoor to outdoor through masterful use of levels, innovative materials and experimental planting.

The resulting gardens are destination spaces, sanctuaries and breathtaking backdrops for everyday life.

Uneasy Dreams
There has been a tremendous amount of renewed interest in the output of Britain's Hammer Films. But there remain a great number of worthwhile British horror films, made at the same time by other companies, that have received little attention. The author provides a comprehensive listing of British horror films--including science fiction, fantasy, and suspense films containing horror-genre elements--that were released between 1956 and 1976, the "Golden Age" of British horror. Entries are listed alphabetically by original British title, from Vincent Price in The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971) to Zeta One (1969). Entries also include American title, release information, a critique of the film, and the film's video availability. The book is filled with photographs and contains interviews with four key figures: Max J. Rosenberg, cofounder of Amicus Productions, one of the period's major studios; Louis M. Heyward, former writer, film executive and producer; Aida Young, film and television producer; and Gordon Hessler, director of such films as The Oblong Box and Murders in the Rue Morgue.
