The Valley
From the author of The Farm, this is the story of twentieth century working-class England through four generations of a Yorkshire mining family

When Richard Benson was growing up he felt like 'the village idiot with O'levels' - glowing school reports aren't much help when you're trying to help a sow give birth, or drive a power harrow in a straight line without getting half the hedgerow stuck in the tines. He left Yorkshire to work as a journalist in London, but returned when his dad called with the news that they were going to have to sell the family farm, and, in so doing, leave the home and livelihood that the Bensons had worked for generations. This is not only a moving personal account, but also one that reflects a profound change in rural life.

Everything You Think You Know is Wrong
Do you believe that goldfish have a 3-second memory span? Do you think coffee comes from a bean? If so, you’ve been lied to. But this book will set the record straight, so next time someone claims that Napoleon was short, or that shaving causes hair to grow back thicker, you can tell them smugly that everything they think they know is wrong.
