Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The Wars of the Roses which took place in England during the 15th century have passed into folk-memory as bloody, vicious struggles for power, with the throne as the prize and ordinary people as the victims. William Shakespeares propaganda for the Tudor dynasty played a great part in creating this legend. Yet the truth was rather more complex. Although power changed hands often, and sometimes with bewildering speed, English society in general was relatively stable, and prosperous. The Wars of the Roses represent a stage in the evolution of a British nation, emerging from the long shadow of medieval France that had lain over these islands since the Norman Conquest. This popular book covers the period beautifully. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Drawn thread work is a form of decorative embroidery that has been practised for many centuries. Traditionally worked on fine linen, it achieves its effect through the contrast of open and closed areas created by removing threads from the fabric. In this study, the author has borne in mind the traditional aspects of the craft, but also pays attention to the exciting and experimental innovations of recent years. An introductory section explains the foundations of drawn thread work, how to withdraw stitches and secure ends. Different stitch types and various borders are then examined, illustrated with line drawings and photographs throughout. As well as basic techniques such as ladder and zigzag hems, more experimental styles, including working with colour and weaving with fabric strips, provide plenty of new design ideas. Chapters on the many thread techniques - needleweaving, reticella, Russian drawn ground, Hedebo and Hardanger - continue the exploration of both new and old approaches. A final section on experimental machine work provides many new ideas for modern embroidery. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. This is a celebration of children, of childhood and, in many ways, of being a parent. It covers some of the best poetry ever written about the charms, beauty, and love of children. British poets such as William Blake, Christina Rossetti, Milton, and Wordsworth rub shoulders with the best American poets, such as Walt Whitman and Longfellow. The poems range from the pain of losing a child to the humour of childish talk through to the profound love that being a mother or father can bring. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this is a book that would be enjoyed by any poetry enthusiast but also by anyone touched by a child in their life.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. You're a big man, but you're out of shape. With me, it's a full-time job. Jack Carter in Get Carter He defined an era and still helps define a nation. Michael Caine is a cult figure, an icon and a cinematic heavyweight, who has given some of the greatest big-screen performances on either side of the Atlantic. This book is a celebration, documentation, and fascinating insight into the performances that made that icon - the story behind the roles, the reactions, the influences, and - in some cases - the backlash, plus quotes from the man himself on his performances and from those he worked with. Caine has made over 80 films in his career, and all are covered here, from the early British successes of Zulu, The Italian Job and his hugely influential gangster portrayal in Get Carter through the maturity of Hannah and her Sisters, the doomed stinkers such as The Swarm and back to his best with The Cider House Rules and The Quiet American. Author Matthew Field, who has interviewed Caine, shows his enthusiasm and detailed research of the actor's work in a book that is not only for the fans of Caine, but for those with a love of cinema and the craft of acting itself.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. A delightful piece of wartime publishing from B. T. Batsford (originally published 1940) reissued to inform and delight all readers about life on the home front during World War II. The make-do-and-mend ethos helped win the war, from knitting balaclava helmets for the navy to making croquet games for the floor and table for blackout days.

The 101 suggestions include : Home-made working toys Using up scraps of metal and wood Croquet for the table and floor Puzzles in cardboard Toys in wool and felt Wartime reading Meatless dishes Waterless cooking Knitting projects The garden in wartime Lamp shades for the blackout Economizing artificial light Let us tidy up With dozens of diagrams, patterns and instructions, this book is not only a delightful look at the past but can be used for reference even now: very much the intention of the authors more than 60 years ago. The suggestions are, by turn, funny, charming and useful, but are a fantastic insight into a nation's psyche. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
