All Behind You, Winston Churchill's Great Coalition 1940–45
Roger Hermiston All Behind You, Winston tells the story of the most remarkable gathering of leaders in modern British history: the War Ministry that saw the country through its darkest – and finest – hour. When Winston Churchill became Prime Minister on 10 May 1940, it was not with the unanimous support of Westminster or the country. He assembled around him, however, a Cabinet of ‘all the talents’; which would variously mobilise, arm, feed, fund, shelter, evacuate, heal and, ultimately, save Britain. In a series of character-driven chapters, Roger Hermiston, tells the behind-closed-doors story of the key figures and key ministries, delving deep into the archives to bring to life a Cabinet that was both the brain and the conscience of the nation.
Roger Hermiston is a journalist and was assistant editor on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme from 1998–2010. He is the author of The Greatest Traitor: The Secret Lives of Agent George Blake, and Clough And Revie, both published by Aurum.

Mile by Mile An Illustrated Journey on Britain's Railways
Peter Herring Travel back in time on a journey across Britain’s main-line railways on the eve of nationalisation. The views from the carriage windows are conveyed through finely detailed, hand-drawn maps, each a rich reminder of the linesides bursting with activity in an era of technical progress, glamour and prestige. Mile by Mile faithfully reproduces the three original route maps drafted in 1947 by S.N. Pike, and adds a new one for the Great Western Railway to complete its coverage of the so-called ‘Big Four’ railway firms formed in the aftermath of the First World War. New introductions describe how the ‘Big Four’ came about, the passengers and goods they conveyed, the key personalities that shaped them – engineers, managers, even publicists – and the trains and locomotives that gave each its unique character.

Peter Herring’s lifelong interest in railways and love of steam locomotives was rewarded in 1990 with the editorship of Steam Classic magazine. This led to a number of book commissions including Yesterday’s Railways and Ultimate Train. January 2017 9781781316412 Hardback £20.00 | $29.99 176 pp 254 x 187 mm Rights: World

The Transatlantic Marriage Bureau Matchmaking in the Gilded Age
Julie Ferry In 1895, nine American heiresses travelled across the Atlantic and bagged themselves husbands and titles. For the English gentlemen the girls married it was a way to sustain their land, houses and all of the trappings of aristocracy. For the girls, who came from new money and were therefore not part of the American social elite, marriage was a means to obtaining the social prestige they craved. Though this phenomenon had been happening for many years, 1895 was undoubtedly the most successful one for the unofficial marriage brokers Lady Minnie Paget and Consuelo Yzanga, Duchess of Windsor. The Transatlantic Marriage Bureau will romp through the year to tell the story of these nine women – the seasons, the parties, the money and the titles – always with one eye on the remarkable women who made it happen behind the scenes.
Julie Ferry has been a freelance journalist for the past seven years and has written for the Guardian, the Independent, The Sunday Times, the Sunday Telegraph, the Evening Standard and magazines such as Glamour, SHE and Eve. She lives with her husband, fouryear-old daughter and one-yearold son in Bristol. The Transatlantic Marriage Bureau is her first book.

Headspace The Psychology of City Living
Dr Paul Keedwell The urban city and town landscape has changed dramatically and is still changing. City population is increasing at rapid speed and with it a new urbanism has developed: increased high rise buildings, modern glass and concrete mixed with historic brick. In response to this urban growth comes new questions over our habitats, and over how we respond to our cities and towns. But what do we really understand about the effects of our changing landscape on us? How do we react to different buildings? Different views and rooms? Our homes? How does the urban landscape affect us? Psychiatrist and writer Dr Paul Keedwell uncovers the psychology behind why our home and why our buildings matter. Through this discussion Keedwell reveals how they effect our daily happiness. Starting with the home and reaching out to the street, town and city, using analysis of famous architecture, such as the glass box, and common living scenes, such as high rises, Keedwell examines and lays bare the forces at play within our habitats so that we can better understand our world.
Dr Paul Keedwell studied Medicine and Psychology at Leeds University and is a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. He has a PhD on the neuroscience of mood disorder, with a keen interest in how evolution has shaped our emotions. He has written widely on many aspects of psychology and mental health, also appearing on national radio and television. He completed a dissertation on the psychological history of architecture at London Metropolitan University. Paul has contributed to the Channel Four TV series, The Secret Life of Buildings.

The Impossible Has Happened The Life and Work of Gene Roddenberry, Creator of Star Trek
Lance Parkin In this biography Lance Parkin goes in search of the creator of Star Trek, Gene Roddenberry. This book reveals how an undistinguished writer of cop shows set out to produce ‘Hornblower in space’ and ended up with an optimistic, almost utopian view of humanity’s future that has been watched and loved by hundreds of millions of people around the world. Along the way Parkin examines some of the great myths and turning points in the franchise’s history, and Roddenberry’s particular contribution to them. He investigates the view that the early Star Trek advanced a liberal multi-racial agenda, charts the various attempts to resuscitate the show during it’s wilderness years in the 1970s, explores Roddenberry’s initial early involvement in the movies and spin-off Star Trek: The Next Generation, and sheds light on the colourful personal life of Roddenberry himself.
Lance Parkin is best known for writing fiction and reference books for television series, most notably Doctor Who. He has contributed to TV Zone, SFX and Doctor Who Magazine.

Breaking the Jump The Secret Story of Parkour's High Flying Rebellion
Julie Angel. Foreword by Christopher McDougall From its humble origins in the backstreets and rooftops of Paris’s urban jungle, to the tops of London and New York’s skyscrapers, Parkour has become an adrenaline-fuelled implosion on the urban landscape. But more than a sport that most jaw-dropped onlookers can bare to comprehend, Parkour is an exploration of movement and a return to our body’s natural ability to run, jump, hang and move with fluidity. For the first time, Julie Angel tells the story of Parkour’s beginnings – the diverse, intriguing and unusual characters who went to the rooftops, hung off the stairwells and jumped between buildings as they trained through the night, often risking their lives, and created something that has become a worldwide phenomenon.

The Thoughtful Gardener An Intelligent Approach to Garden Design
Jinny Blom In The Thoughtful Gardener, Jinny Blom shares her insight into the creative process she has developed while designing more than 250 gardens around the world. Jinny believes that garden design should lead from a house and its context. For her, design is more a matter of intelligence and appropriateness than imposing a particular style. As such, Jinny’s approach, which she demonstrates in this book in the many and varied gardens she has created, can be applied to any garden in any situation. The reader can take inspiration from Jinny’s principles and apply them to their own garden, whatever the shape, size of plot or aspect, to create a garden that will work for them and for their situation, giving enormous satisfaction for years to come.
Jinny Blom has enjoyed a meteoric rise as a landscape and garden designer since she began her London-based practice in 2000. Jinny works on a wide range of projects, taking her across the UK, Europe, the United States and Africa. She has exhibited at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show four times, collaborating with HRH The Prince of Wales on a Healing Garden in 2002, and designing a garden for HRH Prince Harry for the RHS centenary show in 2013. She won the gold medal at Chelsea in 2007 with a garden for Laurent-Perrier.

Hidden Paris Discovering and Exploring Parisian Interiors
Caroline Clifton-Mogg City of Light, City of Mystery, City of Romance – of course, it must be Paris. No other European capital city has the same allure, charm and plethora of pleasures to be searched for and diligently discovered. For while Paris’s public buildings are there for all to admire, there is another, more secret, Paris that is not so easy to find. Unlike London, say, or many other busy cities, Paris has always hidden much of its domestic charm behind tantalisingly closed doors – heavy wooden doors which can only be accessed through keys, codes or the interrogation of suspicious concierges. And behind those doors are houses and apartments grouped round courtyards and gardens, which remain unseen by all except for those in the know. Hidden Paris opens the door to some of these secret interiors – both the old and the new, the classic and the quirky – and sheds a light on how Parisians really live. Caroline Clifton-Mogg is an experienced journalist who specializes in interior design, antiques and gardens. She is the author of many books, including the previous books in this series, Modern Retro and Modern Country, The White Home, Set with Style, China and Glass, The Curtain Design Sourcebook, Decorating with Antiques, Textile Style and A Passion for Collecting, and writes regularly for a number of magazines and newspapers.

Good Soil Manure, Compost and Nourishment for Your Garden
Tina Råman Manure might be dirty, disgusting and smelly, but it’s the topic of the most exciting gardening book of the year. Because it’s manure that maximises your garden, whatever you grow in it. And, like people, plants need nutrients in order to grow, flower and bear fruit, nutrients that can be found in offal, the sea, fire, rocks, the toilet, rubbish and, of course, dung heaps. Tina Råman thoroughly explores every aspect of the theme, from chemistry and biology to history and philosophy and the book answers all your ‘whats’, ‘whens’ and ‘hows’ and gives you concrete advice, generous tips and, above all, masses of inspiration. It lifts the lid on old and reliable fertilisation methods and opens the doors to new resource-efficient and environmentally-smart cultivation techniques. Good Soil doesn’t look like a typical gardening book but it’s a book that everyone interested in gardening needs.
Behind the book is a creative trio from Sweden with a passion for cultivation. The author Tina Råman is a passionate amateur gardener with both feet on the ground; one foot in the flowerbed and the other in the dung heap.

Locally-grown flowers in season is a significant and welcome trend in floristry, and just as eating a tasteless strawberry in December pricks our consciences, so too does purchasing a bouquet of tulips in September, however stunning they may be to look at. The most local, seasonal flowers, which are the most satisfying to give and to display, are the ones you have grown yourself. Carolyn Dunster shows you how to do this in the smallest of spaces. The book includes: • Essential advice on growing flowers in borders and containers, both for visual effects in situ in the garden and for indoor cut-flower displays. • Step-by- step seasonal planting projects with five different colour palettes, provide you with homegrown flowers throughout the year. • Advice on sowing from seed to produce flowers for the garden and vase. • Selecting colours that work together, using flowers in a subtle blend of shades, and a range of different textures and shapes, to produce pleasing balanced arrangements for the garden and home.
Carolyn Dunster trained in floristry with Jane Packer and now works as a florist and planting designer, running her business, Simply Roses. She has written for several magazines including House & Garden and Country Homes & Interiors. She exhibits regularly at garden shows and flower festivals, and recently co-designed a small cutting garden at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 2016, which won the People’s Choice Award.

Our Dog Benji Pete Carter & James Henderson Healthy eating is a focus for parents everywhere – this is a story that makes eating vegetables fun! We all know that dogs will eat anything. We also know that kids’ tastes generally aren’t so wide-ranging. While ice cream and pizza might be devoured in the blink of an eye, the dreaded ‘green stuff ’ (vegetables to the adults) is often pushed to one side of the plate. Author Pete Carter understands this phenomenon well, as he shows in the adventures of Benji. In delightful duotone illustrations and engaging text, we see how Benji’s willingness to eat anything – from daffodils to Brussels sprouts, sandwiches to bones – gradually inspires his child owner to be a little more adventurous at mealtimes. The perfect book to encourage fussy eaters to try a few more vegetables!
Pete Carter is a writer and photographer, and the author of two previous books of poetry. He lives with his wife and two dogs, one of which is the muse for Our Dog Benji; the other hopes to star in Pete’s next book.

The Label A Story for Families
Caroline White Being a new parent is nervejangling enough, but what happens if your baby is not what you were expecting? How do you deal with the conflicting feelings, a heart assailed by overwhelming love and overwhelming fear, guilt and anxiety as your expectations are rerouted? This happened to Caroline White.

Written with great honesty and love, The Label is anchored by a simple yet powerful central image, a metaphor for all that is limiting and prescriptive, and explores what happens when you let the label go and watch as your child blossoms into their best life untroubled by negative expectations.
Caroline White is an advocate for inclusion and steadfast in her insistence that all children be able to enjoy their lives to the fullest. Her son Seb was the first model with Down’s Syndrome to star in a major UK TV advert.

The Beauty of Numbers in Nature Mathematical Patterns and Principles from the Natural World
Ian Stewart Think of a zebra’s stripes, the complexities of a spider’s web, the uniformity of desert dunes, or the spirals in a sunflower head … think of a snowflake. The Beauty of Numbers in Nature shows how life on Earth forms the principles of mathematics. Starting with the simplest patterns, each chapter looks at a different kind of patterning system and the mathematics that underlies it. In doing so the book also uncovers some universal patterns, both in nature and man-made, from the basic geometry of ancient Greece to the visually startling fractals that we are familiar with today. Elegantly illustrated, The Beauty of Numbers in Nature is an illuminating and engaging vision of how the apparently cold laws of mathematics find expression in the beauty of nature.

How to Read London A Crash Course in London Architecture
Chris Rogers Over 2,000 years of settlement give London its unique architectural heritage. Private enterprise shaped it and defined its parts: elegant West End squares may hallmark the classical townscape, but medieval, Tudor, and Victorian enclaves identified by occupation or class make their own statement, notably in the City and East End. A picture-led resource for architects, historians, and tourists, How to Read London reveals how London’s domestic, civic, and commercial landscape has evolved and adapted from imperial capital to global city. An accessible visual guide to the architectural features and significance of some of the capital’s most notable buildings, this book creates a vocabulary of building types and styles, then applies these to a discursive study of London’s domestic, civic, commercial, and industrial highlights.
Chris Rogers writes on architecture and visual culture, informed by twenty years of investigation, research and conversations with practitioners. He is the author of The Power of Process and How to Read Paris.

The Adventures of Peter Cottontail Thornton W. Burgess Full of mischief (and then remorse), Peter Cottontail has exploits that are delightfully recognizable to anyone who has children and will surely tickle yet another generation of young readers. The Adventures of Peter Cottontail recounts the hijinks of one of the most endearing and beloved creatures in children's literature. Peter Cottontail's efforts to outwit the ever-hungry Reddy Fox lead to a number of whisker-thin escapes, and his fascination with the hibernation of some of his neighbors, such as Johnny Chuck, leads to his decision to hibernate … with riotous consequences. This reprint of the classic that was originally published in 1914 presents Burgess' classic style of telling a terrific tale while imparting information about the environment and its creatures.
Thornton Waldo Burgess, a devoted naturalist and conservationist, knew that instilling a love of the natural world in young people was one of the best ways to inspire conservation in adults. His writings spanned over fifty years. March 2017 9781633222922 Hardback £6.99 | $9.95 128 pp 196 x 127 mm 1 colour & 10 b/w photographs Rights: World
The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk Thornton W. Burgess The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk introduces this good-natured, slowmoving but canny childhood favorite, who is usually left alone because of his potent 'perfume'. Like all of Thornton Burgess' characters, Jimmy's natural instincts are completely accurate, but his personality is easily relatable! Jimmy Skunk thinks that the old barrel at the top of the hill will be a perfect place for a restful nap. But mischievous Peter Rabbit thinks up a way to upend this plan and even arranges that Reddy Fox will get the blame and a dose of Jimmy's 'perfume'. Originally published in 1918, this book will inspire giggles and gasps from another generation as readers and listeners will learn about skunks, opossums, and life in the meadow through the eyes of Jimmy Skunk.

The Sous Vide Kitchen Techniques, Ideas, and More Than 100 Recipes to Cook at Home
Christina Wylie Once only found in professional kitchens – with machines costing big bucks – sous vide has been reimagined. Over the past five years, some creative companies have pioneered tools that look somewhat like large immersion blenders and are affordable. With sous vide, food is sealed inside a plastic bag and submerged in hot water for long, slow cooking. The result is reliably juicy meat and tender vegetables; no moisture is lost. Temperature can be maintained to tenthof-a-degree precision. Recipes can be as basic as the classic sous vide steak, simply seasoned and seared on the grill. However, spice blends, marinades, and various other flavours can be built into the process. Sous vide can be used for all sorts of recipes, from custards to speedily infusing vodka with herbs to create gin.
