Complete Works of Oscar Wilde (Collins Classics)
Oscar Wilde
HarperCollins UK, 2003
If you love Wilde, you MUST own this book!
Though the print is small for those of us over 40, it's worth it - if not, it would weigh about 10 pounds! As it is, it's a tome, but worth reading, and re-reading time and again. It has everything - everything! - that you'll ever hear mentioned - his stories, his ...
Vibrant Watercolours (Collins Artist's Studio)
Shirley Trevana
HarperCollins UK, 2006
Vibrant watercolors
I've found in this book what I expected. Shirley Trevena's art has always bewitched me for she has a way of putting things together in still lifes that are amazing. In this work she has gone further than in "Taking risks in watercolor". This is exactly what it is, ...
The Honourable Company: A History of the English East India Company
John Keay
HarperCollins UK, 1993
Tea, Silk, Spices and Stiff Upper Lips
The East India Company, which described itself as "the Grandest Society of Merchants in the Universe," controlled half the world's trade at its height. This grand book, obviously the subject of many years of research, often reads more like an adventure yarn than a ...
Taking Risks with Watercolour
Shirley Trevena
HarperCollins UK, 2006
New inspiration
Although the title of the book refers to watercolour painting only, artists using other mediums will get inspiration as well. Shirley Travena dives into the medium with enthusiasm (no tepid, sepia palette here!) incorporating watercolour with mixed media ...
Halliwell's Film Guide 2008 (Halliwell's Film & Video Guide)
HarperCollins UK
HarperCollins UK, 2008
Excellent single source
As always, this is an erudite and entertaining volume. It is remarkably complete, with even B (and C) movies getting a mention. It provides a clear and concise opinion of each film, dispensing with much of the tortured, reverential twaddle which seems to seep into ...
Seeing Red
Graham Poll
HarperCollins UK, 2008
A Premier League and international referee with 26 years of combined experience, Graham Poll handled some of the toughest games in soccer history—in total more than 1,500 matches—before his retirement in 2007. In this brilliant, no-holds-barred autobiography, Poll reveals what really goes on between the players in the tunnel before a ...
Watercolour Textures (Collins Artist's Studio)
Ann Blockley
HarperCollins UK, 2007
Much more than the title suggests
If you are familiar with Ann Blockley's flower paintings, you will be surprised by this book. (You can see a gallery of Blockley's paintings on her website.) It is no ordinary, watercolour how-to book, and the cover and title give nothing away. In this book, the author ...
The Times Jumbo Cryptic Crossword Book 8: 50 Challenging Cryptic Crosswords (The Times)
HarperCollins UK
HarperCollins UK, 2008
Avoid this one at all cost
I'm a great fan of cryptic crosswords. I've been working them for years. But this one has nothing to do with the standard cryptic crosswords we are used to on this side of the pond. I couldn't figure out the code. The Times refers to the London Times. Unless your are ...
The Children of Hurin
J.R.R. Tolkien
HarperCollins UK Audio, 2007
Excellent Story
The story was tough to get into; however, once I was into it, it was impossible to put down. The language style is a little tough to get used to, but once the story starts moving along you don't even notice it. This is another great book about elves and men. If you ...
Unlocking the Bible Omnibus: A Unique Overview of the Whole Bible
David Pawson
HarperCollins UK, 2003
Pushes the reader further into the Bible
Those of us stateside aren't as familiar with Pawson as our British counterparts. His writings, however, are usually superb and this is no exception. It's huge - and takes forever to read - but very few other books are so successful at nudging you towards the Bible. ...
Tony Visconti: The Autobiography: Bowie, Bolan and the Brooklyn Boy
Tony Visconti
HarperCollins UK, 2008
Magnificent read - If you love music, this must be on your shelf!
Without sounding like an all-out fan (I most assuredly am!), Bowie, Bolan and The Brooklyn Boy mounts an incredible story beginning with Tony's days as a young boy in Brooklyn, to playing in the Catskills, to meeting the NYC music community, to his loves, to landing in ...
Bigger than Hitler-Better than Christ
Rik Mayall
HarperCollins UK, 2006
Title Says It All
The Rik Mayall is great (anyone with any sense knows that) and this book is proof. Although it can at times seem as though the Rik Mayall is ranting and confused, I have come to realize it is only because I cannot, as I am not the Rik Mayall (there can only be one), ...
Grand Designs Handbook: The Blueprint for Building Your Dream Home
Kevin McCloud
HarperCollins UK, 2007
An architecture and design guru arms the aspiring self-builder with the tools to ensure that their vision becomes reality. Via three main sections—Thinking, Dreaming, and Doing—home designers will be guided through each stage of the process of building a home, from working out what they really want to implementing the build itself. ...
Heroes, Villains & Velodromes: Inside Track Cycling with Chris Hoy
Richard Moore
HarperCollins UK, 2008
Heroes, Villains and Velodromes reveals how an elite athlete, Chris Hoy, lives, breathes and pushes the boundaries of his sport. How does he do it? And why?
