CHURCHILL’S BRITAIN From the Antrim Coast to the Isle of Wight

Peter Clark £20 SEPTEMBER 2020 BIOGRAPHY/HISTORY HBK, ROYAL | 273 pages | 8 maps p: 978-1-909961-74-6 e: 978-1-909961-75-3

’Whether as a travel guide for a Churchill enthusiast or for the general reader, this book will bring instruction and joy’ –Andrew Roberts More books have been written about Winston Churchill than any other modern historical figure, but Peter Clark’s Churchill’s Britain does something quite different. It takes the reader the length and breadth of Britain and Ireland to places both familiar – Blenheim Palace, Chartwell, the Cabinet War Rooms – and lesser-known, his schools, far-flung parliamentary constituencies in Dundee and Epping, the sites of famous speeches, the place he started to paint, the shop he bought his cigars, and the final resting places of his family and close friends. By visiting sites that made important but less-celebrated contributions to the story of Churchill’s life, we come closer to a full picture of the man. Each of the eight regions of the United Kingdom and Ireland are introduced with a map. Together, these places provide fascinating and fresh insights into this extraordinary man.

Peter Clark is a writer, translator and retired diplomat. He worked for the British Council for 30 years, has translated six novels from Arabic and has written extensively on 19thcentury Britain.

KOKOSCHKA

The Untimely Modernist

Rüdiger Görner T R A N S L AT E D BY

Debra Marmor and Herbert Danner £20 NOVEMBER 2020 BIOGRAPHY/ART HBK, ROYAL | 366 pages p: 978-1-912208-81-4 e: 978-1-912208-82-1

The first English biography of one of the most influential expressionists of twentieth-century European art The Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka achieved world fame with his intense expressionistic portraits and landscapes. In this first English-language biography, Rüdiger Görner depicts the artist in all his fascinating and contradictory complexity. He traces Kokoschka’s path from bête noire of the bourgeoisie and a so-called ‘hunger artist’ to a wealthy and cosmopolitan political and critical artist who played a major role in shaping the European art scene of the twentieth century and whose relevance is undiminished to this day.

Kokoschka’s achievements as a playwright, essayist and poet bear witness to his remarkable literary talent. Music, too, played a central role in his work, and his passion for teaching led him to establish in 1953 the School of Seeing, an unconventional art school conceived to revive humanist ideals in the horrific aftermath of war.

Rüdiger Görner is Professor of German with Comparative Literature at Queen Mary, University of London. The Founding Director of the Centre for Anglo-German Cultural Relations, his books include biographies of Rainer Maria Rilke and the poet Georg Trakl.

PARTITION

How and Why Ireland was Divided

Ivan Gibbons

£12.99 NOVEMBER 2020 HISTORY/IRELAND HBK, TRADE | 174 pages p: 978-1-913368-01-2 e: 978-1-913368-02-9

A century after the island of Ireland was divided, this concise history tells the story of how, and why, partition happened In December 1920, the Government of Ireland Act passed through British parliament in Westminster, coming into effect the following year. It led to the partition of Ireland into a unionist north and a nationalist south. What began as an expedient and temporary political device to resolve tensions inside the United Kingdom was to become a permanent international frontier between two sovereign states and Britain’s only land border with the European Union.

The passion and emotion felt about partition has not dissipated in the hundred years since; it is as controversial now as it was then. To mark the centenary, this concise, introductory history explains clearly and objectively why and how two states on the island were created.

Ivan Gibbons was a lecturer and MA and BA Programme Director in Irish Studies at St Mary’s University. He is the author of The British Labour Party and the Establishment of the Irish Free State (2015) and Drawing the Line: The Irish Border in British Politics (2018).

SECRET SERVICE National Security in an Age of Open Information

Jonathan Evans

£7.99 SEPTEMBER 2020 POLITICS/SECURITY PBK, A-FORMAT | 90 pages p: 978-1-912208-94-4 S E R I E S : Haus Curiosities

e: 978-1-912208-95-1

The former Director General of the British Security Service on security in a time of increasing openness and transparency This short book describes how the UK’s secret services are dealing with the need for greater openness and transparency, even as national security needs are heightened. Based on decades of real-life experience, Jonathan Evans draws insightful similarities between investigative journalism and espionage, from following leads and checking information to protecting sources. He explores differences between other security services around the world, especially those in the United States, and how Brexit might impact the UK’s future collaboration with other European security services.

Secret Service is an intriguing insight into the world of international and domestic security and a reminder of the importance of actively attending to the moral health of both the institution itself and its operatives who, by their very nature, are its greatest strength and also its greatest weakness.

Jonathan Evans was Director General of the British Security Service from 2007 to 2013. In 2018, he was appointed Chair of the Committee on Standards in Public Life.

TRUTH IN PUBLIC LIFE Vernon White Stephen Lamport Claire Foster-Gilbert £7.99 SEPTEMBER 2020 POLITICS/SOCIAL SCIENCE PBK, A-FORMAT | 90 pages p: 978-1-912208-90-6 S E R I E S : Haus Curiosities

e: 978-1-912208-91-3

Three essays explore the critical importance of truth in our public institutions and wider society How can we speak of truth in an era of lazy assertions and unstable facts? We must, these intelligent essays implore us. Discovering the truth and, indeed, telling it are vital if we are to enjoy a civilised society in which everyone is free to flourish. Vernon White, in his essay ‘Truth Pursued, or Being Pursued by Truth’, shows that absolute truth exists and explains why and how it matters morally. In ‘Truth Sustained’, Stephen Lamport describes why truth is important to sustaining civilised society and argues that truth is central to other essential qualities. In her essay ‘Truth Told’, Claire Foster-Gilbert explores the challenge of truth-telling for public servants: for politicians, who are routinely not believed; for civil servants, whose ministers may only want to hear those facts that support their policy ideas; for journalists, tempted to tell the story that is ‘too good to check’; and for judges, police officers – even us.

Vernon White is an Anglican priest and theological scholar. Stephen Lamport is a former Receiver General of Westminster Abbey and Private Secretary to the Prince of Wales. Claire Foster-Gilbert is the Founding Director of Westminster Abbey Institute and the Co-founder of the St Paul’s Institute.

CITIZENS OF EVERYWHERE

Searching for Identity in the Age of Brexit

Peter Gumbel £7.99 NOVEMBER 2020 POLITICS/CURRENT AFFAIRS PBK A-FORMAT | 110 pages p: 978-1-913368-07-4 e: 978-1-913368-08-1 S E R I E S : Haus Curiosities

A poignant search for identity through the lens of family history

In 1939, with Europe on the brink of war, Peter Gumbel’s grandparents fled Nazi Germany for England. In 2019, appalled not only by the result of the Brexit referendum but by the ugliness it exposed in our politics and wider society, he became a citizen of Germany, the country that had persecuted his grandparents 80 years earlier. How had it come to this?

Through the story of his family and their migration, Citizens of Everywhere explores identity and belonging in the wake of Brexit and the coronavirus. In doing so, it laments Britain’s tragic slide from an open, pluralist haven to a country whose prejudices have led it to turn its back on the European project and engage in an ill-fated, isolationist struggle against an ever more interconnected world. Gumbel’s short book will speak to many as he describes how the Britain he knew and loved, that welcomed his ancestors so readily, has taken a wrong turn at the worst possible moment.

Peter Gumbel has worked for Reuters and the Wall Street Journal, as well as Time and Fortune magazines. Since 2006, he has taught at Sciences Po in Paris.

The coronavirus pandemic tested our public servants like never before At the heart of Letters from Lockdown are letters that were written to public servants during the ďŹ rst 12 weeks of the coronavirus lockdown. They are accompanied by three essays that give the deeply personal perspectives of a politician, a civil servant and a police officer as the crisis unfolded.

Addressed to the public servants trying to carry the nation through the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the letters were written to be a source of strength and support. They offered ways of fortifying public servants to make them ready, constant and enduring in their response to the needs of the nation and speak of strengthening not just the soul of individual public servants but that of their institutions. The accompanying essays, each by a public servant, are testament to the private and public struggles they faced during the crisis and ask what, if anything, will change in our world as a result of the pandemic.

Claire Foster-Gilbert is Director of Westminster Abbey Institute. Treena Fleming is a Detective Superintendent. Dawn Butler is Labour MP for Brent. Peter Howitt is Director in the Department for Health and Social Care.

‘A must-read for anyone who has wondered what life is like behind that famous black door’ –Matt Chorley

Behind the world’s most iconic front door lies the core of British political power: the Prime Minister’s home and office. Designed over three centuries ago as an ordinary residence, 10 Downing Street (or ‘No. 10’) has undergone a challenging metamorphosis, with continuous adaptation and renovation allowing successive occupants to make their mark on this evolving, surprising and in some places crumbling building.

With unprecedented access to people and papers, Jack Brown uncovered intimate stories of Downing Street’s post-war residents, revealing how those in power have shaped the building – and been shaped by it in return. The result is a fascinating account of the unexplored corners of one of the nation’s best-known buildings. This updated and revised edition includes a new chapter on the Blair and Brown administrations as well as a new preface, which considers the effect of the coronavirus pandemic on No. 10.

Jack Brown is Lecturer in London Studies at King’s College London and Research Manager at Centre for London. From 2016 to 17 he was the first-ever Researcher in Residence at No. 10 Downing Street.

PBK, B-FORMAT | 800 pages p: 978-1-912208-98-2 e: 978-1-912208-99-9

‘Takes the reader inside the heads of some of the towering politicians of our age. Compelling stuff’ –Robert Peston

In the BBC radio programme ‘Reflections’, Peter Hennessy – the preeminent historian of British political life – interviewed leading figures from the UK’s governing parties during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Bringing together all the interviews for the first time, The Complete Reflections includes the biggest names from the Thatcher era, the New Labour years, and the coalition government of the 2010s, providing both an overview of the last three decades of British politics and interim biographies of these public figures during times of great change.

Allowing his subjects space to ruminate on the significant, meaningful and controversial chapters in their careers, Hennessy gives us portraits of great authority, compelling us to believe that, when the dust settles, the interview will endure alongside memoir and biography. .

Peter Hennessy won the Duff Cooper Prize for his book Never Again: Britain 1945–51. He is the bestselling author of, most recently, Winds of Change: Britain in the Early Sixties. He was made an independent crossbench life peer in 2010. Robert Shepherd’s documentary about the Foreign Office for Channel 4’s Dispatches won Europe’s Prix Stendhal.

MARY SEACOLE Ron Ramdin

£9.99 DECEMBER 2020 BIOGRAPHY PBK, B-FORMAT | 192 pages p: 978-1-913368-09-8

The remarkable life of the woman voted Greatest Black Briton in 2004 Mary Seacole’s extraordinary life began in Jamaica, where she was born a ‘free person’, the daughter of a Black mother and white Scottish army officer. Ron Ramdin – who, like Seacole, was born in the Caribbean and emigrated to the UK – tells the remarkable story of a woman celebrated today as a pioneering nurse.

Refused permission to serve as a nurse during the Crimean War, Seacole took the unusual step of funding her own journey to the battlefront and there, in the face of sometimes harsh opposition, established a hotel for wounded soldiers. Unlike Florence Nightingale – whose exploits saw her venerated as the ‘lady with the lamp’ for generations afterwards – Seacole was forgotten after a brief period of fame on her return to England. She died 25 years later in obscurity, and was unjustly written out of history for over a century before her significance was once again recognised.

Ron Ramdin was born in Trinidad and emigrated to the UK in 1962 where he has worked ever since as a journalist and author. His many publications include the pioneering history The Making of the Black Working Class in Britain (2017).

‘Far more than a vital document: it is a powerful tribute to human fortitude and imagination...’ –Guardian ‘...compulsively readable...Tazmamart is a deeply moving testament to the strength of the human spirit’ –Spectator In 1971, Aziz BineBine was imprisoned after being unwittingly involved in the attempted assassination of Hassan II. He then endured 18 years in the nightmarish conditions of the secret prison Tazmamart, where inmates were kept in darkness underground and confined to small cells. With his fellow prisoners dying around him, BineBine realised the only way to survive was to forget the world outside his cell, to forget his past, his family, and his friends.

An unfiltered depiction of the agony of prison life, and written with touching simplicity and great tenderness, Tazmamart is a harrowing, powerful and at times searing tale and a testimony to the triumph of one human spirit pitted against injustice and savage cruelty.

Aziz BineBine is a Moroccan author and former army officer. Inadvertently involved in the attempted coup d’état of 1971, he spent 18 years imprisoned at Tazmamart. He now lives in Marrakech.

‘The great storyteller cures the current perils of humanity with his words’ –Ece Temelkuran The study of dictatorship in the West has acquired an almost exotic dimension. But authoritarian regimes remain a painful reality for billions of people worldwide who still live under them, their freedoms violated and their rights abused. They are subject to arbitrary arrest, torture, corruption, and injustice. What is the nature of dictatorship? How does it take hold? In what conditions and circumstances is it permitted to thrive? And how do dictators retain power, even when reviled and mocked by those they govern? In this deeply considered and at times provocative short work, Alaa Al Aswany tells us that, as with any disease, to understand the syndrome of dictatorship we must first consider the circumstances of its emergence, along with the symptoms and complications it causes in both the people and the dictator.

Alaa Al Aswany’s The Yacoubian Building has sold over a million copies worldwide and his work has been published in over a hundred countries. Al Aswany was named by The Times as one of the fifty best authors to have been translated into English in the last fifty years.

‘Gracefully, he portrays the Riviera and warmth of Italian society in which Lawrence was slowly resurrected and enabled to write’ –The Times November 1925: in search of health and sun, DH Lawrence arrives on the Italian Riviera with his wife, Frieda, and is exhilarated by the view of the sparkling Mediterranean. But over the next six months, Frieda will be attracted to their landlord, a dashing Italian army officer, and Lawrence will write two stories prefiguring Lady Chatterley’s Lover: Sun and The Virgin and the Gipsy, both tales of women drawn to earthy, muscular men. Drawing for the first time on the unpublished letters and diaries of Rina Secker, the Anglo-Italian wife of Lawrence’s publisher, Richard Owen reconstructs the drama leading up to the creation of one of the most controversial novels of all time and explores DH Lawrence’s passion for all things Italian, tracking his path to the Riviera from Lake Garda to Lerici, Abruzzo, Capri, Sicily and Sardinia.

Richard Owen was the Rome correspondent of The Times for fifteen years. He was previously the paper’s correspondent in Moscow, Brussels and Jerusalem, and he also served as Foreign Editor. Owen has written several works of non-fiction.
