Wiltshire is one of the largest counties in southern England & has a wide variety of landscapes, from river valleys lined with picturesque villages to the expanses & open skies of Salisbury Plain. It is also a vibrant county where things have changed regularly.

In keeping up with the times, though, it has kept much of what is best about its past, & much of the county's charm comes from features that can seem changeless.

Individual chapters cover towns, villages, life in Wiltshire & some of the many historic sites, while the subjects vary from familiar towns & cities such as Salisbury, Trowbridge & Marlborough, historic spots such as Castle Combe & Bradfordon- Avon, to a wide variety of the villages of the county & even some views that have been 'lost' over the past century.

British romantic comedy about a washed-up tennis player who scores a wildcard entry to the Wimbledon championship & finds his game reinvigorated after he meets one of the top American female stars. Richard Loncraine directs Paul Bettany as Peter Colt, a once-great British player who is sliding further down the world ranking every year. Once ranked 11th in the world, he is now placed at 113th & it seems as if his career has come to an inglorious end. Winning a wildcard entry to the Wimbledon tournament seems like Peter's last chance, although when he accidentally stumbles into the hotel room of Lizzie Bradbury (Kirsten Dunst), a rising star in the women's game, he finds his luck beginning to change. Even though he is warned off Lizzie by her father Dennis (Sam Neill), the more he falls for her, the more his game improves, until it seems as if he might just have a chance at the title. Also featuring performances from Bernard Hill & Robert Lindsay. ...

Books Thriller Books A dead man's secrets fall into the hands of a vigilante antihero--drawing him down a dangerous road. Over twenty years ago, the heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors -- & the items stolen from her family were never recovered. Until now. On the Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting & a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead -- not only on Patricia's kidnapping, but also on another FBI cold case -- with the suitcase & painting both pointing them toward one man. Windsor Horne Lockwood III -- or Win, as his few friends call him -- doesn't know how his suitcase & his family's stolen painting ended up with a dead man. But his interest is piqued, especially when the FBI tells him that the man who kidnapped his cousin was also behind an act of domestic terrorism -- & that the conspirators may still be at large. The two cases have baffled the FBI for decades, but Win has three things the FBI doesn't: a personal connection to the case; an ungodly fortune; & his own unique brand of justice.

The war of 1914-18 changed Britain forever. The movement for Irish Home Rule strengthened, women were in jobs they had never done before &, at the end of the war, were granted the vote for the first time.

Political & military careers were won & lost & in all of these, Winchester played its part. Whilst this is a book about the Great War, that terrible conflagration which claimed so many lives, it is also expertly covers how that war touched the citizens of Winchester.

It can be said that every city, town, village & hamlet contributed to the war effort but some cities, of which Winchester is certainly one, were of crucial importance to the final victory.
