Bromley Boys
£7.58
I loved it.. .extremely funny. A must-read for anyone who loves football. Peter Crouch In the late 1960s in the warm glow of England winning the World Cup Dave Roberts like most teenage boys his age was football mad. There was just one difference: rather than supporting the likes of Arsenal or Manchester United Daves team of choice was the ever so slightly less glamorous Bromley Football Club
- one of the last genuinely amateur football teams left fighting for survival in the lowest non-league division. This book is the story of Bromleys worst ever season. It is a funny & heart-warming tale of football at the very bottom: Dave turns up to each match with his football boots in his bag just in case the team are a player short; the crowd is always announced as 400 as no-one can be bothered to count; the team ship so many goals that in one match the taunting opposition fans actually lose count of the score. Its easy being a football fan when your team are always winning. The Bromley Boys is the touching true story about supporting a club through thin & even thinner: proof that the more your team may lose on the pitch the more there is to gain on the terraces.

Brontes
£10.87
The story of the tragic Bronte family is familiar to everyone: we all know about the half-mad repressive father the drunken drug-addicted wastrel of a brother wild romantic Emily unrequited Anne & 'poor Charlotte'. Or do we? These stereotypes of the popular imagination are precisely that
- imaginary
- created by amateur biographers from Mrs Gaskell onwards who were primarily novelists & were attracted by the tale of an apparently doomed family of genius. Juliet Barker's landmark book was the first definitive history of the Brontes. It demolishes myths yet provides startling new information that is just as compelling
- but true. Based on first-hand research among all the Bronte manuscripts many so tiny they can only be read by magnifying glass & among contemporary historical documents never before used by Bronte biographers this book is both scholarly & compulsively readable. THE BRONTES is a revolutionary picture of the world's favourite literary family. ' As a work of scholarship it is briliant.. . For those with a passion for the Brontes or for Victoriana or for sheer wealth of historical minutiae it is a stupendous read' INDPENDENT ON SUNDAY
