- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

In the intervening 116 years, some of the greatest stories in world sport have been written & names have been etched into sporting folklore. ” The Olympic Games & World Records Book” is a collection of the finest achievements on sport`s greatest platform & a celebration of the legends created by some of the most distinguished names in sporting history.

This title gives a fascinating look at the modern Olympic Games, from Athens 1896 to the build-up to London 2012, via Approx. 230 photographs
- each with a description
- taken from the world-famous archives of Getty Images. The emphasis is on the two previous Games held in London, in 1908 & 1948, but there are photos from all the summer Games, as well as some winter Games & Paralympic Games. Photos of iconic moments & famous athletes are included, but this is not a conventional history nor a round-up of already well documented incidents; it also features unsung & forgotten athletes, unusual sports, official posters, spectators, background staff, buildings & symbols. Many of the photographs have never been published before. By turns informative & astonishing, heroic & daring, quirky & amusing, the result is a dynamic & absorbing visual biography of the Olympic Games through the ages.
