The final word on the world's greatest rock b&, Led Zeppelin. They were 'the last great band of the sixties; the first great band of the seventies'; they rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time. Mick Wall, respected rock writer & former confidant of both Page & Plant, unflinchingly tells the story of the band that wrote the rulebook for on-the-road excess
- & eventually paid the price for it, with disaster, drug addiction & death. WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH reveals for the first time the true extent of band leader Jimmy Page's longstanding interest in the occult, & goes behind the scenes to expose the truth behind their much-hyped yet spectacularly contrived comeback at London's O2 arena last year, & how Jimmy Page plans to bring the band back permanently
- if only his former protege, now part-time nemesis, Robert Plant will allow him to. Wall also recounts, in a series of flashbacks, the life stories of the five individuals that made the dream of Led Zeppelin into an even more incredible & hard-to-swallow reality: Page, Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, & their infamous manager, Peter Grant. The culmination of several years research, this book tells the full, shocking story of Led Zeppelin from the inside, written by someone who has known Jimmy Page for over twenty years.

A fascinating, lively account of the making of the King James Bible. James VI of Scotland – now James I of England – came into his new kingdom in 1603. Trained almost from birth to manage rival political factions, he was determined not only to hold his throne, but to avoid the strife caused by religious groups that was bedevilling most European countries. He would hold his God-appointed position & unify his kingdom. Out of these circumstances, & involving the very people who were engaged in the bitterest controversies, a book of extraordinary grace & lasting literary appeal was created: the King James Bible. 47 scholars from Cambridge, Oxford & London translated the Bible, drawing from many previous versions, & created what many believe to be the greatest prose work ever written in English – the product of a culture in a peculiarly conflicted era. This was the England of Shakespeare, Marlowe, Jonson & Bacon; but also of extremist Puritans, the Gunpowder plot, the Plague, of slum dwellings & crushing religious confines. Quite how this astonishing translation emerges is the central question of this book. Far more than Shakespeare, this Bible helped to create & shape the language. It is the origin of many of our most familiar phrases, & the foundations of the English-speaking world. It was a generous & deliberate decision to make the Bible available to the common man: not an immediate commercial success, but which later became a bestseller, & has remained one ever since. Adam Nicolson gives a fascinating & dramatic account of the early years of the first Stewart ruler, & the scholars who laboured for seven years to create the world's greatest book; immersing us in a world of ingratiating bishops, a fascinating monarch & London at a time unlike any other. ...
