  Audiobook version of PJ Murray's brutally honest memoir Self-Made (Jestina Media, 2018), which chronicles his metamorphosis from a barely literate juvenile delinquent in the racially-charged 1970s into a successful 21st century businessman. 
  After overcoming an underprivileged childhood in northwest London and a decade-long cycle of criminality and incarceration, Murray matured into a street-smart business operator who has played integral but unsung roles in two landmark British media platforms: Pride Magazine and music TV station Channel U. 
  While exploring issues such as faith, culture, and entrepreneurialism, Murray's fascinating book is also peppered with mind-boggling accounts of sex, revenge, tragedy, Jamaican voodoo, and personal development.

  “A perceptive and gripping biography” of the enigmatic British explorer, photographer, and author of Arabian Sands (Daily Mail, UK). 
   
  Wilfred Thesiger, the last of the great gentlemen explorer-adventurers, journeyed for sixty years to some of the remotest, most dangerous places on earth, from the mountains of western Asia to the marshes of Iraq. The author of Arabian Sands, The Marsh Arabs and The Life of my Choice, he was a legend in his own lifetime. Yet his character and motivations have remained an intriguing enigma.  
   
  In this authorized biography—written with Thesiger’s support before he died in 2003 and with unique access to the rich Thesiger archive—Alexander Maitland investigates this fascinating figure’s family influences, his wartime experiences, his philosophy as a hunter and conservationist, his writing and photography, his friendships with Arabs and Africans amongst whom he lived, and his now-acknowledged homosexuality.
