Ride A White Swan: The
Lives And Death Of
Marc Bolan
£6.99
From mod folk artist to flower power pixie elfin to the king of glam rockers, Marc Bolan was the ultimate chameleon. His far reaching musical & stylistic influence is more relevant today than ever with hits such as ' Ride A White Swan', ' Children Of The Revolution', ' Get It On' & ' Hot Love' as fresh & exhilarating as when first released. At the peak of his popularity during his lifetime Bolan was outselling Jimi Hendrix & The Who, & yet relatively little is really known about the hypnotic, enigmatic 20th century boy turned 21st century icon. At last, in the 35th anniversary year of his tragic death, Marc Bolan represents the definite biography. Here rock biographer, Lesley-Ann Jones, paints a meticulous portrait of the T-Rex front man. From his childhood growing up in Hackney to his untimely death at the age of 29, Bolan's life was one of relentless experimentation & metamorphoses. Hallucinogenic drugs, wizardry & levitation, alcoholism, tax evasion & a spectacular fall from grace were to punctuate his short life, as he continued to strive to reinvent himself & his music over & over again. Lesley-Ann has been granted access to those who knew Bolan best, including his partner & the mother of his only son, Gloria Jones & his brother, Harry Feld. ...

Riddle Of The Sands

The perennial classic. Arguably the first spy novel ever written that remains one of the finest examples of the genre to this day. Carruthers, a Foreign Office clerk with a taste for yachting, joins his former schoolmate, Davies, for a spot of sailing on the North Sea. Carruthers is initially disdainful of their rather rudimentary vessel, the Dulcibella, but he warms to the voyage when they detect suspicious German naval activity off the coast of the Frisian Islands. Pretending to be hunting duck, the friends decide to investigate the Germans' intentions - self-appointed secret agents. In no time they become embroiled in a world of suspense and intrigue, and the pair set about foiling a plot to invade England.
