Hilary Devey is one of our most remarkable entrepreneurs & was an instant sensation when she appeared on Dragons Den. Now, in this powerful memoir, she reveals the full story of her turbulent life. She describes how her fathers bankruptcy sparked a fierce determination in her not to end up the same way. When her father started working in the pub trade, Hilary did too
- at the age of seven
- & has been grafting hard ever since. She built her own company, Pall-Ex, which today has an annual turnover of 100 million, never giving up even when she was so broke she couldnt afford to give her son a Christmas dinner. Admitting to terrible taste in men, Hilary opens up about her marriages & the destructive relationship she thought would break her. She tells how she faced a mothers worst nightmare, her sons heroin addiction, & fought back from a stroke that almost killed her. Bold as Brass is candid, brave & laced with the warmth & humour that have made Hilary so popular. Ultimately, its as inspirational as the woman herself.

Wolf Hall Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2009 Lock Cromwell in a deep dungeon in the morning, says Thomas More, and when you come back that night hell be sitting on a plush cushion eating larks tongues, & all the gaolers will owe him money. Engl&, the 1520s. Henry VIII is on the throne, but has no heir. Cardinal Wolsey is his chief advisor, charged with securing the divorce the pope refuses to grant. Into this atmosphere of distrust & need comes Thomas Cromwell, first as Wolseys clerk, & later his successor. Cromwell is a wholly original man: the son of a brutal blacksmith, a political genius, a briber, a charmer, a bully, a man with a delicate & deadly expertise in manipulating people & events. Ruthless in pursuit of his own interests, he is as ambitious in his wider politics as he is for himself. His reforming agenda is carried out in the grip of a self-interested parliament & a king who fluctuates between romantic passions & murderous rages. From one of our finest living writers, Wolf Hall is that very rare thing: a truly great English novel, one that explores the intersection of individual psychology & wider politics. With a vast array of characters, & richly overflowing with incident, it peels back history to show us Tudor England as a half-made society, moulding itself with great passion, suffering & courage.ISBN: 9780007230204 ...

As the Second World War shudders to an end, two young men return from Europe to help work the farm.

Ronsel Jackson, eldest son of the black sharecroppers who live on the farm, comes home from war with the shine of a hero, only to face far more dangerous battles against the ingrained bigotry of his own countrymen. These two unlikely friends become players in a tragedy on the grandest scale.ISBN: 9780099524687 ...
