  Dr Tom Lonsdale’s original, pioneering work Raw Meaty Bones is the foremost book on the nutritional needs of pet dogs, cats and ferrets. First published in 2001—and of still greater importance today—the 14 chapters are packed with information vital for pet owners and pet professionals the world over.Lonsdale explains how industrial diets devastate the health of pets, how dirty tartar encrusted teeth, sore gums and stinky breath signal the downward spiral of ill-health, suffering and needless trips to the vet. By contrast he shows why dogs and cats crave the ripping, tearing and crunching on raw meaty bones—Nature’s miracle treatment and preventative. It’s the tough, chewy texture of the food that imparts the medicinal benefits. And providing your pet does enough ripping and tearing its teeth will be clean, gums healthy and breath sweet. The resultant benefits for the immune system, heart, liver, lungs and kidneys are enormous—one happy, contented pet.   Raw Meaty Bones makes no apology, it reveals a veterinary profession lost without a moral compass beholden to the multi-national pet food companies. It provides the foundations for a pet health revolution—with enormous cost savings for pet owners and benefits for the natural environment worth $billions.If you own a pet, or know someone who does, this book’s for you.

  Fish Town

  "For years my life had been a string of temporary work in factories and call centres or unemployed. Approaching 30 and disillusioned with life in Glasgow, I sold everything I had and left for a new life in a remote fishing village in Japan. I knew nothing of the language or the strange new land that I would call home for the next seven years. Fish Town is an eye-opening true story that paints the reality of living in Japan as an outsider."
  John's debut memoir, written entirely on his phone, reads like a book of poetry or perhaps a long text message. This gifted writer captures the experience of a Scottish man living in Japan – with humour, wit, honesty, and by all means without an ounce of political correctness.
  "Periods of hopelessness and despair are perfectly blended with hilarity and hope, instantly giving off vibes of Post Office by Charles Bukowski. Fagan's delivery is poignant and purposeful, with writing so crisp it's easy to fly through the pages. Truly a book I will never forget." – Aidan Martin, author of Euphoric Recall

  The Benin Empire, one of the most powerful and influential kingdoms in West Africa, flourished for over 1,000 years. Its capital, Benin City, located in present-day southern Nigeria, was an epicenter of art, culture, and political power. The empire’s historical significance extends beyond its impressive architectural feats, remarkable artistry, and military prowess, as it was also a hub of trade and diplomacy. 
  The origins of the Benin Empire can be traced back to the early 11th century, with a history deeply intertwined with the Kingdom of Ife, from which the Benin people are believed to have descended. The development of the kingdom was largely shaped by its early rulers, the Obas, whose leadership and vision helped lay the foundation for the Benin Empire. The Benin monarchy, a vital institution in the kingdom, solidified the rule of the Obas and their divine connection to the people. 
  At its peak, the Benin Empire extended its influence over a vast region in West Africa, establishing a complex political and social structure. The monarchy not only commanded political and military power but also served as a central force in religious and cultural life. The empire was renowned for its rich heritage in art, including the world-famous Benin Bronzes, which showcased the advanced craftsmanship and symbolic significance of Benin artisans. These bronzes, intricate sculptures, and plaques, which depicted scenes of royalty, warriors, and historical events, remain symbols of the empire’s grandeur.
