Britain's Living Past

Britain's Living Past is a celebration of the best of the past, of things that have been preserved because they still matter to the community. It is a book in which the emphasis is very much on the word 'living'; looking at traditions, pastimes and working practices, some centuries old, that survive today not as museum pieces or in pages of a history book but as part of everyday modern life. From reminders of Britain's great maritime past in the crafts of the shipwright and the rope maker, to the organised mayhem that is the Ashbourne Tuesday football match and the exotic splendour of Giffords traditional circus, writer Tony Burton and photographer Rob Scott have travelled the length and bre...

Department of Correction

In the Adirondacks, a grandfather is killed while deer hunting. On New York City’s East Side, two boys are kidnapped and a retired doctor is gunned down in the getaway. In midtown Manhattan, a former governor is abducted and viciously butchered, his throat slit. The killing has just begun… The crimes seem unrelated until maverick newspaper reporter Todd Paige, on a hot tip from ambitious NYPD lieutenant Sarah vanAllen, follows the trails of blood to a sleepy hamlet far upstate. For there, buried deep in the Adirondacks, lies the secret of the Wilderness, a hospital for the criminally insane; a place of corruption, abuse, and horrifying evil—evil in the guise of a heinous gang now loose and determined to wreck bloody vengeance for sins long past. And no one can stop them.

Mines and Miners of Cornwall and Devon

The eminent historian and author of The Rise of King Cotton uncovers the centuries-old story of tin mining in Southern England. Tin mining has existed in Cornwall and parts of Devon since before the Romans arrived in Britain. In this book, historian Anthony Burton explores the region’s tin mining industry from its earliest period through to the present day. A specialist in the history of technology, Burton examines the evolution of extraction methods from primitive pick and shovel operations to the later use of explosives, the rise of steam power, and beyond. Burton also looks at the changing politics and economics of the tin mining industry over the centuries.

Ten for Ten

These ten stories are on-target tales of crime, mystery and suspense, taken from the 2007 issues of the Crime and Suspense ezine. It is a mixture of stories from seasoned and multiply-published authors, as well as newcomers to the crime fiction arena, but all are direct hits to the bullseye. These ten short stories make up a prime sampling of the various stories published in the Crime and Suspense ezine, and will please the reading palate of any fan of the genre. This is the second anthology from the editors of Crime and Suspense, and we anticipate many more.
