Axl Rose is one of rock's most colourful figures & yet his story has never been properly told until now. Mick Wall knew the original line-up of Guns N' Roses before they were famous & has interviewed them many times. Drawing on exclusive unpublished material he has written a no-holds-barred study of the turbulent life & career of the group's singer & leader. Wall describes Axl's difficult childhood in Indiana & how after escaping to LA he & his fledgling band struggled to survive until they were signed up by Geffen in 1986. The first album Appetite for Destruction" turned them into stars but the band's lurid lifestyle took its toll
- they embarked on a two-year tour that sounded the death knell for the original line-up. As their lives slipped out of control the original members bar Axl all left. Axl himself turned into an increasingly reclusive figure working on the long-awaited " Chinese Democracy" album. In 2006 he re-emerged into public view as Guns N' Roses embarked on a world tour. Scrupulously researched & vividly written "W. Axl Rose" is an explosive biography of one of rock's biggest living legends."

Members of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force played a vital role in supporting the operations of the Royal Air Force during the Battle of Britain & thereafter but their story has not received the attention it deserves. In The WAAF at War highly experienced author John Frayn Turner has addressed this serious oversight by capturing the indomitable spirit of the thousands of youngwomen who made up the WAAF. He vividly describes the diverse roles played by members of this highly respected organization both on the ground at air stations & in control bunkers reading radar monitors or plotting the course of air operations. In addition WAAF pilots were released to the Air Transport Auxiliary to deliver aircraft to front line units & flew all types of aircraft often with minimal training regardless of weather. Their adventures make for excellent reading. Most poignant are the hazardous exploits of those WAAF who volunteered for SOE. Perhaps the best known of these incredibly gallant girls is Noor Inayat-Khan GC who was executed at Dachau in 1944 but there were many others whose stories are told here.A long overdue tribute to the courage & war-winning contribution of all its members The WAAF at War will appeal particularly to air historians & those who were members of or are proud to be descended from members of the WAAF. ...
