THE WARS OF THE ROSES
The struggle that inspired George R R Martin’s A Game of Thrones Martin J. Dougherty
“Westeros is probably closer to medieval Britain than anything else.” – George R.R. Martin, creator of Game of Thrones. Kings who were insane, infant or imprisoned; feuding families, disputed successions and monarchs executing their brothers; exiled nobles, war with France and enemies forced to unite against a common foe – the history of the Wars of the Roses is so filled with drama that it feels like fiction. In fact, it has inspired fiction. As Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin said: “I’ve drawn on many parts of history, but the Wars of the Roses is probably the one A Song Of Fire And Ice is closest to.” Telling the story of the fifteenth century wars between Lancastrians and Yorkists, The Wars of the Roses follows the course of the conflict from the succession of infant King Henry VI right through to the defeat of rebellions under Henry VII.

This is an expertly written account of where literature, mythology and history meet.

Burroughs Wellcome (USA) Inc. is an American company which began as the small New York sales branch of the medium-sized Burroughs Wellcome & Co., established in London by American pharmacists Henry Wellcome and Silas Burroughs. From 1936 the entire Burroughs Wellcome business organization was owned by the Wellcome Trust, founded by Sir Henry Wellcome, one of the most fascinating men of his time. In 1995 Glaxo merged with Wellcome to become Glaxo Wellcome, and just 5 years later it in turn merged with SmithKline Beecham to form the pharmaceutical giant Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK). Concentrating on the story of the New York-based Burroughs Wellcome USA Inc., Roy Church’s masterly history analyses the scientific research and product innovation in which – in contrast to the parent company – the subsidiary in the US excelled by way of the discovery and development, during the 1980s, of the antiviral drug, Zovirax for the treatment of herpes, and the antiretroviral, Retrovir. The wealth which Wellcome’s companies had created ensured that the future lay with the Wellcome Trust (UK) and the Burroughs Wellcome Fund (US).

JOHN DE COURCY
Prince of Ulster Steve Flanders
MARCH 2016 Paperback | $8.95
978-1-78073-069-1 128 pages | NCR General History
John de Courcy personified the classic image of the Anglo-Norman Knight. This tall, fair man with a strong physique and bold temperament led his men from the front and skilfully conquered a new kingdom, echoing the spirit of William the Conqueror a century before. From noble birth, but with bleak prospects of inheritance, John fought his way to the notice of King Henry II who is said to have laughingly granted him Ulster “provided he could conquer it by force”. John seized his opportunity in February 1177, leading a small band of fellow knights north from the Dublin garrison to a stunning victory against King Rory MacDunlevy at the Battle of Downpatrick. Following his success he set about establishing a new Norman lordship across Ulster, centred on his magnificent castle at Carrickfergus. His eventual demise at the hands of a devious King John brought to a close a tale of medieval adventure still surrounded by myth and legend. John de Courcy carved out his own kingdom and made himself a Prince. This is his story.

REST AND BE THANKFUL
Autobiography of a Belfast Missionary Daniel Cummings C.Ss.R.
In 1922 Belfast-born Dan Cummings left home three days after his 15th birthday to begin a Juniorate at a Redemptorist College in Limerick. He was not to live at home again. Years later he was persuaded by his then ten year old niece to ‘write his life story’. This is his personal account of a fascinating life, from a young lad in troubled Belfast, to missionary in the Philippines. Later, in wartime Europe, he served as an army chaplain, was involved in the D-Day landings and was there to see Belsen concentration camp liberated. Rest and Be Thankful is meticulously observed and recorded with forthright honesty. He finished writing in 1970 and died seven years later. At his request, the manuscript remained unpublished until now. MARCH 2016 | Paperback | $21.95 | 978-1-7807-3074-5 | 368 pages | NCR | Biography

UNDERSTANDING CURRICULUM AS PHENOMENOLOGICAL AND DECONSTRUCTED TEXT Edited by William F. Pinar and William M. Reynolds
William F. Pinar and William M. Reynolds’ groundbreaking edited collection of essays, Understanding Curriculum as Phenomenological and Deconstructed Text, remains required reading across contemporary educational landscapes in North America and other transnational topographies. These richly “layered voices of teaching,” from Aoki to Taubman, by authors whose work has shaped the field in significant ways for over two decades, signify a stellar constellation of inspirited relations for curriculum scholars and students near and far. Thus the reissue of this collection is a precious gift of genealogical lineage and leverage, tracing the transformation of curriculum theory and praxis into new understandings that remain critical and urgent for our times. This treasure trove of textual identities, imaginings, and inspirations will continue to provide impassioned curricular provocations for generations to come.

Edward IV, (1442–1483) was King of England from 4 March 1461 until 3 October 1470, and again from 11 April 1471 until his death on 9 April 1483. In a turbulent world marred by civil war, Edward, 4th Duke of York—with good title to the throne—overthrew the corrupt government of the weak and feeble-minded Henry VI, setting the foundation stones for a strong and prosperous England. Scofield’s two volumes are a magisterial record of this reign. Although other biographies have appeared, none have replaced this solid work of scholarship.
Medieval History/Biography
THE REIGN OF KING HENRY VI Ralph A. Griffiths
Henry VI is the youngest monarch ever to have ascended the English throne and the only English king to have been acknowledged by the French as rightfully King of France. His reign was the third longest since the Norman Conquest and he came close to being declared a saint. This masterly study examines the entire span of the king’s reign. This classic reassessment of the third Lancastrian king is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of fifteenth-century England.

In the Hindu world-view, threshold is a profoundly important concept representing a passage between one space and place and another, with emphasis placed on creating a visual bridge between the secular and the sacred. Accordingly, the literal threshold a person crosses symbolizes the threshold one crosses between the physical and spiritual realms of existence. The practice of creating threshold drawings, or diagrams, is steeped in Indian history and culture, going back thousands of years.

THE LAST GREAT EVENT
With Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison Ray Foulk and Caroline Foulk
JANUARY 2016 Hardback | $30.00
978-1-909339-58-3 295 pages | 6.5 x 9.5 Jimi Hendrix and The Doors/Music Festival Memoir
The Isle of Wight Festival in 1969 famously ‘stole Bob Dylan’ from Woodstock’ and was the starting point and benchmark for all rock and pop festivals in the UK. What followed in 1970 was one of the world’s greatest music gatherings of all time, attracting musicians and fans from across the whole music spectrum. The list of performers is a Who’s Who of the then music élite, who are now legends: Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, the Who, Joan Baez, Richie Havens, Joni Mitchell, Procul Harem, the Doors, Leonard Cohen, the Moody Blues, Emerson Lake and Palmer-the list goes on. This was Britain’s ‘Woodstock’ and all on a tiny island off the south coast. For the first time, Ray Foulk, joint organizer, gives his own full, frank and authoritative account, delving into pivitol texts from all sides of the divide. Many remember this festival as a magical, lifechanging experience, encapsulating the sixties trip of sex, drugs, rock‘n’roll and a political yearning for a better world. But for the others, a question looms large over history: did this final festival precipitate the end of the dream of an alternative society, or did it reflect the changes already taking place? This most controversial of the festivals was aptly promoted by the Foulk brothers as ‘The Last Great Event’.
Ray and Caroline Foulk’s account of the 1969 Isle of Wight Festival was published in June 2015 and received worldwide recognition and comprehensive coverage in the press and media. In this follow up to When the World Came to the Isle of Wight: Stealing Dylan From Woodstock, they bring the same inside knowledge and individual style. Caroline Foulk has worked with her father, Ray, for many years, researching, writing, and co-promoting the in-schools project, Blue Planet Day. Together they have recently completed a screenplay for the cinema about the invention of modern art.

RAILS IN THE ROAD: A HISTORY OF TRAMWAYS IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND Oliver Green
There have been passenger tramways in Britain for 150 years, but it is a rollercoaster story of rise, decline and a steady return. Trams have come and gone, been loved and hated, popular and derided, considered both wildly futuristic and hopelessly outdated by politicians, planners and the public alike. A gradual renaissance began in the 1980’s and Trams are now set to be a familiar and significant feature of twenty-first century urban life, with more development on the way.

THE LONDON BENDY BUS
The Bus We Hated Matthew Wharmby
Between 2002 and 2006 six of London’s bus companies put into service 390 articulated ‘bendy’ buses on twelve routes for Transport for London. During what turned out to be a foreshortened nine years in service, the Mercedes-Benz Citaro G earned an unenviable reputation in London. This account is an attempt by a long-time detractor of the bendy buses to set the vehicles in their proper context.

LEADERSHIP
Modernising our Perspective, Second Edition Carol Dalglish and Peter Miller
Little is known of how leadership actually happens in the Australasian context. Most of the theory and case study material in leadership is drawn from the US, where leadership examples are most frequently drawn from the business arena and focus largely on white males. This is not a true reflection of the diversity of Australasian society, nor of local and regional leadership.

FREEDOM
The End of the Human Condition Jeremy Griffith with Introduction by Harry Prosen
The fastest growing realization everywhere is that humanity can’t go on the way it is going. Indeed, the great fear is we’re entering endgame where we appear to have lost the race between self-destruction and self-discovery—the race to find the psychologically relieving understanding of our ‘good and evil’-afflicted human condition. Well, Astonishing as it is, this book by Australian Biologist Jeremy Griffith presents the 11th hour breakthrough biologicsl explanation of the human condidion necessary for the psychological rehabilitation and transformation of our species!
APRIL 2016 Paperback | $22.95
978-1-74129-028-8 798 pages | 6.25 x 9.25 Psychology
The culmination of 40 years of studying and writing about our species’ psychosis, FREEDOM delivers nothing less than the holy grail of insight we have needed to free ourselves from the human condition. It is, in short, as Professor Harry Prosen, a former president of the Canadian Psychiatric Association, asserts in his Introduction, ‘The book that saves the world!’.
Griffith has been able to venture right to the bottom of the dark depths of what it is to be human and return with the fully accountable, true explanation of our seemingly imperfect lives. At long last we have the redeeming and thus transforming understanding of human behaviour! And with that explanation found all the other great outstanding scientific mysteries about our existence are now also able to be truthfully explained—of the meaning of our existence, of the origin of our unconditionally selfless moral instincts, and of why we humans became conscious when other animals haven’t. Yes, the full story of life on Earth can finally be told—and all of these incredible breakthroughs and insights are presented here in this ‘greatest of all books’. Jeremy Griffith is an Australian biologist who has dedicated his life to bringing fully accountable, biological understanding to the dilemma of the human condition—the underlying issue in all human life of our species’ extraordinary capacity for what has been called ‘good’ and ‘evil’.
