When former Richmond High School basketball legend Ken Carter agrees to take over his alma mater's floundering team, he has the players sign a contract that demands good grades, perfect class attendance, and suits on game days. With Coach Carter at the helm, the Oilers' record soon stands at 12 and 0. But when the coach learns that some members of his team are cutting class and failing academically, he locks them out of the gym, incurring the wrath of the players, the school, and the community. Coach Carter's determination to adhere to his convictions puts his philosophy and his players' trust to the ultimate test.

*WINNER of the Ellis Peters Historical Dagger Award 2013*
`Andrew Taylor wrote superb historical fiction long before Hilary Mantel was popular' Daily Telegraph
From the No.1 bestselling author of THE AMERICAN BOY comes a new historical thriller set during the American War of Independence.

August, 1778. British-controlled Manhattan is a melting pot of soldiers, traitors and refugees, surrounded by rebel forces as the American War of Independence rages on.

Into this simmering tension sails Edward Savill, a London clerk tasked with assessing the claims of loyalists who have lost out during the war.

Savill lodges with the ageing Judge Wintour, his ailing wife, and their enigmatic daughter-in-law Arabella. However, as Savill soon learns, what the Wintours have lost in wealth, they have gained in secrets.

The murder of a gentleman in the slums pulls Savill into the city's underbelly. But when life is so cheap, why does one death matter? Because making a nation is a lucrative business, and some people cannot afford to miss out, whatever the price...

A wartime romance, survival saga and murder mystery set in rural France during the First World War, from the bestselling author of `Operation Mincemeat' and `Agent Zig-Zag'.

Four young British soldiers find themselves trapped behind enemy lines at the height of the fighting on the Western Front in August 1914. Unable to get back to their units, they shelter in the tiny French village of Villeret, where they are fed, clothed and protected by the villagers, including the local matriarch Madame Dessenne, the baker and his wife.

The self-styled leader of the band of fugitives, Private Robert Digby, falls in love with the 20-year-old-daughter of one of his protectors, and in November 1915 she gives birth to a baby girl. The child is just six months old when someone betrays the men to the Germans. They are captured, tried as spies and summarily condemned to death.

Using the testimonies of the daughter, the villagers, detailed town hall records and, most movingly, the soldiers' last letters, Ben Macintyre reconstructs an extraordinary story of love, duplicity and shame - ultimately seeking to discover through decades of village rumour the answer to the question, `Who betrayed Private Digby and his men?' In this new updated edition the mystery is finally solved.

'A terrific book. No one put their body on the line quite like Sam Warburton.'

Brian O'Driscoll

'It was an absolute privilege to play against Sam. An inspiring leader with an equally inspiring story to tell.'

Jonny Wilkinson

Sam Warburton OBE was not only a titan of Welsh rugby, but an icon of the game. Having represented his country as a player and team captain at all junior levels, he propelled himself to international attention in 2011 when named as the youngest ever captain of Wales for the Rugby World Cup.

Despite his tender age, Sam's immense displays for club and country were recognised still further in April 2013, when, at just 24, he was named the Lions' captain for the extraordinary 2013 tour to Australia. Four years later, after a year 'in the wilderness', Sam was named Lions' captain yet again for the historic tour to New Zealand, thereby becoming the first ever Lions Captain never to lose a series in the professional era.

Intelligent, calm, thoughtful - in many ways seemingly the exact opposite of the smash and crash of modern rugby - Warburton's edge never came with his size, but with his depth of thought, his reading of movement, and his understanding that, to be a uniquely successful leader, one needs to set goals that far exceed the ambitions of even the most ferocious of opponents. In leading other men, and in pitting himself against the world's best, Warburton was forced repeatedly to push himself to the very edge of his physiological and mental limits, the 21 significant injuries over that period a painful testament to his sacrifice.

Open Side is therefore not simply a chronology of events or a celebration of statistics. Written in a compelling but soul searching style, this is an astoundingly personal book exploring the nature of leadership, the value of self-control, the precision of mindset and of course the future of the game. It is also a deeply personal meditation on the sacrifice of body, the torment of injury and the pain of retirement, a decision Sam was forced to make in July 2018, at just 29 years old.

Never before has a rugby autobiography given such intimate access not only to the realities of the dressing room and the heroes and villains of the modern game, but to the unique mindset required to make someone a genuinely great leader of men.

In a world divided by the ideological struggles of the Cold War, the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement, more than one-fifth of the people on the planet paused to watch the live transmission of the Apollo 11 mission. To watch as humanity took a giant leap forward.

A companion book to the landmark documentary series on BBC TV.
The journey from Cape Canaveral to the Moon was a tremendous achievement of human courage and ingenuity. It was also a long, deadly march, haunted by the possibility of catastrophic failure on the world's stage. In an era when the most advanced portable computer weighed 70 pounds, had a 36-kilobite memory and operated on less power than a 60-watt lightbulb, the sheer audacity of the goal is breath-taking. But the triumph of imagination and the unity of the Earth that day would change the world.

Based on eyewitness accounts and newly discovered archival material, Chasing the Moon reveals the unknown stories of the individuals who made the Moon landing a possibility, from inspirational science fiction writer Arthur C. Clark and controversial engineer Wernher von Braun, to pioneers like mathematician Poppy Northcutt and astronaut Edward Dwight. It vividly revisits the dawn of the Space Age, a heady time of scientific innovation, political calculation, media spectacle, visionary impulses and personal drama.

Excerpt from Le Missionaire de l'Oratoire, Vol. 6: Sermons pour l'Avent, le Carème Et les Fètes; Dans Lesquels Sont Expliquées les Principales Vérités Chrétiennes Que l'On Enseigne aux Missions Tirées de l'Écriture, des Conciles Et des Saints Pères Mais quand nous nous tairions ici, les pierres mèmes parleraient. La ca pilale du royaume, ou votre piété vous a fait trouver le secret de vous cacher au milieu du monde, publiera ce qu'elle a connu de votre humilité, de votre charité et de votre zèle. Elle apprendra à votre peuple qu'elle vous a vu des cendre de l'élévation d'une grande naissance, dans ce que lecole de Jé us Chrtst a de plus bas aux yeux des hommes et ensevelir, dans l'humilité d'une vie parfaitement clémcale, tout cet éclat que vous aviez reçu de vos illustres parents, qui comptent des souverains dans leurs alliances, mais qui se glo rifient davantage de compter un grand nombre d'enfants consacrés à Dieu, qui sont le fruit de leur piété et la bénédiction de leur famille. Les peuples des villes et ceux de la campagne, à. Qui vous avez enseigné mème les premiers éléments de la science de jésus-christ, leur diront qu'ils ont admiré en vous un zèle infatigable dans ce saint exercice, d'autres loueront cette ardeur et cette assiduité merveilleuse avec laquelle ils vous ont vu embrasser tout ce que l etat ecclésiastique et d'emplois les plus abandonnés; enfin, quelque adresse qu'ait eue votre humilité pour cacher votre charité, elle n'a pu empècher qu'on ne vous ait vu aller chercher les pauvres et les misérables, et leur porter toutes sortes de secours dans des lieux ou le soleil pouvait à peine envoyer quelque rayon de lumiere. C'est la, monseigneur, ce que l'on peut appeler proprement le noviciat de l'ordre épiscopal, et si l'on peut dire que l'humilité, la charité et le zèle en sont comme les trois voeux, on peut dire aussi qu'un exercice si fidèle et si fervent de ces trois vertus vous a disposé, contre votre dessein, celui que Dieu avait, de vous élever à une dignité si sublime et si sainte. Elle va donner à ces vertus un nouveau lustre et un nouvel éclat, mais elle leur va donner aussi un nouvel exercice et leur ouvrir une ample car rière; et ce combat: secret et particulier que vous avez livré aux vices et aux déi èglements sera bientôt changé en une guerre publique et générale, que vous leur allez déclarer à la vue de toute l'eglise.
