Synopsis

Musicians Who Disappeared explores the intriguing phenomenon of musical artists who vanished from public life, sometimes at the peak of their careers. The book delves into the stories of these forgotten figures, examining their artistic contributions alongside the circumstances surrounding their disappearances. 

 
Did pressure from the music industry, personal crises, or something else entirely lead to their withdrawal? The book suggests these disappearances serve as cautionary tales about the darker side of the music industry and the human cost of fame, exploring the psychology of fame and mental health challenges faced by performers.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the concept of musical disappearance, categorizing the types of vanishing acts. It then presents in-depth case studies of musicians who disappeared under mysterious or noteworthy circumstances, looking at their backgrounds, careers, and prevailing theories surrounding their absence. Finally, the book analyzes common threads and patterns, offering a broader commentary on the music business and celebrity culture.

 
Through biographical analysis and media studies, Musicians Who Disappeared connects to fields like psychology and sociology, providing a holistic understanding of the factors that contribute to these vanishing acts.

    The wild stories of gold and the Australian outback from a young woman defying male conventions in pursuit of the mother lode. 
    If you haven’t seen a Discovery Channel gold-hunting show, you might picture a gold prospector as a relic of the Wild West: a TNT-toting, bearded old man wildly swinging a pick on the hunt for nuggets, guided by old maps, superstition, legends and instinct. It’s still predominantly a man’s world, and still often fanatical, but these days the golden dream attracts people from all walks of life – and 25-year-old Tyler Mahoney (Australian star of the Discovery Channel’s Gold Rush series) is leading the way. 
    Hailing from Kalgoorlie, Tyler is a fourth-generation gold miner and has seen up close how gold fever makes normally reasonable people do the most irrational things. From mysterious corpses in the desert to huge heists, backstabbings to life-changing finds, Tyler unearths hair-raising stories and legends from Australia’s gold prospecting past and present, while sharing her experience forging her way in a traditionally male domain. She writes candidly about the push and pull of the gold world in her own life, as well as her struggles with bipolar disorder – a mental-health challenge that in some ways parallels the feast-or-famine nature of prospecting itself. 
    With humour, grit and an infectious zest for life, ‘gold digger’ Tyler Mahoney stakes her claim.

    'There's no other place I'd rather have begun, no other place I ever wanted to reach. This is my story.'  
    The first autobiography from legendary Welsh rugby player George North. 
    George North is a true legend of Welsh rugby, an integral part of the national team for fourteen years. 
    Recently retired from the international game, he is the third-most-capped player in Welsh history with 121 Test appearances, the youngest player ever to reach 100 caps, and the second-highest try scorer with 47. 
    At club level, he has played for the Scarlets, Northampton and Ospreys, and latterly Provence in France. 
    North is open, charismatic, thoughtful but hugely competitive, and this is the first time he has reflected on his extraordinary career. Co-written with the brilliant sportswriter Tom Fordyce, this autobiography is an utterly compelling and enthralling retrospective, taking in George’s life growing up in Anglesey on the North Welsh coast, before he burst onto the scene when he became the youngest player ever to score a try on his debut aged just 18. 
    Full of heart and passion, George’s story is a uniquely inspirational insight into the art, mastery and sheer force of the game of rugby. 
    The perfect gift for rugby fans this Christmas.  
    In this memoir, North not only shares his journey as a top player in the rugby world, but also provides a cultural insight into the sport that has shaped his life. His experiences, from his regional beginnings in Anglesey to his latest achievements on the international stage, are recounted with a raw and captivating honesty.

    Running from Bondage tells the compelling stories of enslaved women, who comprised one-third of all runaways, and the ways in which they fled or attempted to flee bondage during and after the Revolutionary War. Karen Cook Bell's enlightening and original contribution to the study of slave resistance in eighteenth-century America explores the individual and collective lives of these women and girls of diverse circumstances, while also providing details about what led them to escape. She demonstrates that there were in fact two wars being waged during the Revolutionary Era: a political revolution for independence from Great Britain and a social revolution for emancipation and equality in which Black women played an active role. Running from Bondage broadens and complicates how we study and teach this momentous event, one that emphasizes the chances taken by these 'Black founding mothers' and the important contributions they made to the cause of liberty.
