  In 2015, climber and documentary maker Joe French was filming in the Himalaya when tragedy struck and he found himself caught in an earthquake that killed nearly 9,000 people. Miraculously, he survived – but this wasn’t the first accident from which he was lucky enough to escape. On a previous expedition to the Himalayas, Joe’s team of Sherpas had been wiped out by an avalanche. Back in Scotland, his wife Julie was fighting her own battle against cancer and, on his return, Joe found himself at home caring for their two young girls. Suffering from a form of PTSD, Joe attempted to find peace again, using his love of the outdoors to ground himself in nature. Running barefoot through the forests and glens around his house in Scotland, he discovered the means to stop going out of his mind.

  When I die and people realize that I will not be resurrected in three days, they will forget me. That is the way it should be. For reasons known only to God, I was asked to write an autobiography. Most people who knew me growing up didn't think I would ever read a book, let alone write one.—Lou Holtz 
  Few people in the history of college sports have been more influential or had a bigger impact than Lou Holtz. Winner of the three national Coach of the Year honors, the only coach ever to lead six different schools to season-ending bowl games, and the ninth-winningest coach in college football history, Holtz is still teaching and coaching, although he is no longer on the gridiron.  
  In his most telling work to date, the man still known as ""Coach"" reveals what motivated a rail-thin 135-pound kid with marginal academic credentials and a pronounced speech impediment to play and coach college football, and to become one of the most sought-after motivational speakers in history. With unflinching honesty and his trademark dry wit, Holtz goes deep, giving us the intimate details of the people who shaped his life and the decisions he would make that shaped the life of so many others. 
  His is a storied career, and Holtz provides a frank and inside look at the challenges he overcame to turn around the programs at William and Mary, North Carolina State, Arkansas, and Minnesota. From growing up in East Liverpool, Ohio, to his early days as a graduate assistant at the University of Iowa, to his national championship runs at Notre Dame and his final seasons on the sidelines in South Carolina, Lou Holtz gives his best, a poignant, funny, and instructive look into a life well lived.

  The Rules in Practice 2025-2028...

  Every four years the Racing Rules of Sailing are updated following the Olympics. To help the sailor, World Sailing labels important changes with marginal markings. For the new rules coming into force on 1st January 2025 there are quite a lot of marginal markings: - A third of the Definitions are marked, including Sail the Course, Mark-Room, Obstruction and Continuing Obstruction; - Nearly a third of the rules in Part 2 (When Boats Meet) are marked, including Avoiding Contact, Mark-Room, Room to Pass an Obstruction; - All of the rules in Part 5 (Protests, Redress, Hearings, Misconduct and Appeals) are marked. That's quite a lot of changes! You need a new set of rules and, to understand the implications of the changes, you need a guide to them. Rules in Practice has been the best-selling guide to the racing rules of sailing for the last 40 years. Now, in its 11th edition, it has been updated for (and contains in full) the 2025-2028 Racing Rules of Sailing. To begin, Rules in Practice describes the latest rule changes and their implications for sailors. The book then covers the fundamental rules that always apply to sailors along with a detailed look at the rules around luffing and keeping clear – which were an eye-opener to many sailors when they were first published in the last edition. As always, throughout the book, the emphasis is on the practical impact on you as a sailor, rather than a theoretical discussion of the rules themselves. This is brought to life in the rest of the book, which takes you around the racecourse, from start to finish, through the key situations that frequently occur showing, from the point of view of each boat in turn, what you may, must or must not do. (Other rules guides take you through the rules in order which is just not how you come across them on the racecourse.) You don't have to know all the rules off by heart, but you do need to know your rights and obligations on the water – the rules can be looked up afterwards. This knowledge will build your confidence while racing and enable you to make the most of opportunities when they arise. Colour diagrams throughout ensure concepts are easily understood.  If you are going to buy one rule book – make it this one!

  A Practical Guide To Modern...

  I know of no gamekeepers who are not countrymen to their fingertips.  They observe, they consider, they cherish and they do more than most to look after out woodlands and hedgerows, our moorlands and fens.  Theirs is not an easy job, out in all weathers and misunderstood by many townies who are further removed from the countryside and its workings than they have ever been, thanks to increasing technology which keeps them housebound.  They need never go out if they so choose, remaining glued to the screen of a mobile phone, a computer or a television. But those who do realise that the intervention of man need not always be irresponsible and thoughtless can see just what benefits can accrue from the wise management of our natural resources, and Jeremy Hobson does much in this book to apprise us all of the modern approach to keepering, from raising birds and habitat management to choosing coats and boots and training dogs. It is all here, and a fascinating read it is; both for those in the know and those who are curious to learn all about it.

  -	Do you have a challenge ahead that needs physical or mental strength?  
  -	Are you struggling to sustain the commitment required to achieve your goals? 
  -	Do you know what it takes for you, personally, to succeed at the highest levels? 
   
  Coach Mike Chadwick is ready to help. Former Paratrooper Coach Mike tore up the British Army’s century-old approach to physical development sending success rates soaring. He has since become a trainer of champions, a leader of leaders, the coach with the ear of the elite. Much of his work has been from the shadows: in essence as the Secret Coach. Until now. 
   
  In The Red On Revolution, Coach Mike exposes countless fitness-industry myths and coaches you, personally, to succeed. Coach Mike cares greatly about your pathway to success and will teach you how to assess your current fitness levels, develop an individualised training plan and, despite your barriers, succeed in your goals. You will learn about the physical, psychosocial, and psychological principles of progress, recalibrating your attitude towards fitness, readiness, and mental strength.  
   
  Join Mike and a powerful line-up of guests including Ant Middleton (SBS, explorer, entrepreneur), Simon Jeffries (mental resilience coach, Special Forces); Anthony ‘Staz’ Stazicker (SBS, entrepreneur, explorer); the Stoltman Brothers (World’s Strongest Man); Charlotte Spence (Crossfit Champion and Army’s Strongest Woman), Scott Meenagh (Paralympian and former paratrooper), and Tom Aspinall (UFC heavyweight).  
   
  Progress and success is different for every single person. By revealing the secrets of the strongest, Coach Mike will show you how you can reach your fitness goal and be ready for anything. 
  Only one question remains: are you in?
