  While many falconry books briefly touch on the ethics of the sport, “The Philosophy & Ethics of Falconry” is entirely dedicated to addressing the chief ethical and philosophical questions at the heart of falconry. Readers, whether they are aspiring, new, or experienced falconers (or simply someone intrigued by this unique method of hunting) will be introduced to several philosophical traditions and what wisdom they have to offer for falconry. This book also responds to critics of falconry and offers a robust ethical defense of the sport from an internationally recognized teacher of philosophy and debate. Regardless of the reader’s experience with falconry or style of hawking, everyone will walk away from this book with a richer understanding of what makes the sport worth pursuing and how it fits into an examined, ethical, and worthwhile life.

  Inshallah United: A story of...

  Nooruddean Choudry

  Longlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Awards 2023 
  Nooruddean Choudry was born in 1979 — the year Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister, Sid Vicious died of a heroin overdose, Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the last Shah of Iran, and Tim Martin opened his first Wetherspoons. Also that year, a local football club lost the Cup Final to Arsenal courtesy of a man named Sunderland. That club would become an all-consuming obsession for young Nooruddean, who would one day become a small brown man and, vitally, also a Red. 
  Inshallah United is the story of the first British-born son of a Pakistani family living in England’s second city. And geography is important, because if it wasn't for his mum and dad settling in Manchester rather than anywhere else in the world, so much of what makes up Nooruddean's identity could have been so different. As it was, he grew up as a Muslim, Manchester United supporting, Morrissey-loving, Maggie-hating, working-class Manc. 
  Inshallah United is about growing up as a strictly halal Stretford Ender; a devout Muslim and diehard Red. It’s about praying five times a day that United would sign Alan Shearer and knock the Scousers off their perch. And it’s a deeply personal account of life as a Muslim Asian Mancunian kid in the late 80s and 90s, bookmarked by the most successful period in Manchester United's history. 
  Inshallah United, the latest memoir by Nooruddean Choudry, is a top-rated autobiography that offers a humorous and heartfelt exploration of his life as a devout Muslim and diehard Red. This biography is a must-read for those interested in the topic of cultural identity and recreation. 
  For fans of Chris Blackhurst (The World's Biggest Cash Machine), Wayne Barton (The Last Busby Babe), Jonathan Wilson (Kick and Run), Andy Spinoza (Manchester unspun), and Rob Carless (Here, There & Everywhere).

  Professional golfer Andrew "Beef" Johnston has played in the world's biggest tournament, won big-money events, and sunk monster putts while fans were booming out his nickname: "BEEEEEEF!" On the downside, Beef has also duffed it, thinned it, and shanked it like every single person who's ever played the game. Because no matter who you are, golf can make you look like an idiot. 
   
   
   
  Golf is Hard reflects on Beef's early years at his local Pitch & Putt to his stellar career playing against the best on the greatest courses on the planet, taking you inside the world of professional golf like no book before. With painfully honest stories, Beef delves into the pressure of the profession, but also shares golfing advice and side-splitting behind-the-scenes insights to bring a new perspective to the game. What is Tiger Woods really like in the locker room? How did it feel to hit one of the worst shots in golf history in front of millions of viewers during the British Open? And just how many clubs has Beef broken through fits of rage and frustration during his illustrious career? 
   
   
   
  This is a book for everyone who has ever loved and loathed the game in equal measure but managed to see the funny side. After all, golf is really hard, so you might as well have a laugh about it along the way.
