Beschreibung

The Coming of the Fairies is Arthur Conan Doyle's famous exploration of the Cottingley Fairies case, where two young girls in 1917 claimed to have photographed real fairies in Yorkshire. In this illustrated book, Doyle recounts the discovery of the fairy photographs – delicate winged beings dancing by a brook – and presents his investigation into their authenticity. He includes the girls' testimonies (Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths) and supportive statements from believers, alongside the actual fairy photos reproduced for readers. Doyle earnestly argues that these pictures are "epoch-making" evidence of a hidden elemental world. He contextualizes fairies in folklore and suggests that modern spiritual openness allowed these nature spirits to be revealed on camera. The book also addresses skeptics, but Doyle's conviction in the veracity of the Cottingley images is clear – he saw them as a hopeful sign of humankind's expanding perception. The Coming of the Fairies thus stands as a curious and iconic piece of paranormal history: a celebrated author defending the existence of fairies with scientific zeal and sincere wonder, complete with photographs of the alleged sprites themselves.

    Survive Grief & Come Back to...

    Experiencing Grief is inevitable in life because death is certain. Nobody can avoid it, and yet it seems that too many people hide from this fact, preferring to 'leave it till later'. The very word 'death' is whispered and most often dodged if possible, preferring words like 'lost', 'passed' or 'sleeping'. 
    Grief can be a shock when death occurs, even if it has been previously experienced because grief is never the same. My grief for my mum who died in 2019 was nothing compared to the death of our son, Jac in 1997, which catapulted me into this world of grief specialist, therapist and best selling author. For many clients 'counselling' worked just 'fine', however, I knew there was more to life having healed my mind, body and spirit because all three are affected by grief. So I used my grief and death knowledge, accepted the guidance of angels and spirit guides, and created bespoke programmes to heal aspects of grief such as anger and stress, elevating your energy and find out who you REALLY are, along with my powerful 5 month programme to heal and come back to life after grieving. 
    Within these pages I offer grief knowledge, self help writing exercises and my own personal journey of discovery through surviving abuse, suicides, death and trauma. I can't promise you a happy ending, but I can promise honesty, truth and love.

    For many years, UNITA leader Jonas Savimbi was known for his charisma, charm and brio: he convinced millions of his fellow countrymen and also international statesmen that he was Angola's and the West's best hope for democratic rule.
    More than 30 years after writing a sympathetic biography of Savimbi, Fred Bridgland sets the record straight. Based on new evidence that has come to light, he reveals the rebel leader's murderous legacy. In the 1970s and 1980s, when Angola was a hotbed of the Cold War, few people would have believed that Savimbi was a manipulative and paranoid tyrant prepared to kill anyone he viewed as a threat to his power.
    Tito Chingunji, the brilliant young foreign secretary of Savimbi's UNITA movement, who approached Bridgland to write the original biography in the early 1980s, risked his life to help Bridgland tell the true story of what was going on behind the scenes. This is an account of the intense friendship that developed between the two men, the adventures they shared and the terrifying challenges they faced as they revealed Savimbi's true face.
