  It is 1904, and every day the coaches plying between Lynmouth and Minehead scramble their way up and slither their way down the 1 in 4 gradient of Porlock Hill, the most feared hill in all of England. It takes six sturdy horses to drag a laden carriage to the top. There, the leading pair are detached and led back down into the village by a boy, a boy who knows how lucky he is to have been given such a responsible job at such a young age. But on this day in May, on his return journey with the tired horses Pug and Delia, he spots what looks like a sheep sheltering on the hillside. But as he gets closer, his heart races as he becomes aware... it is not a sheep... it is a white dress...

  American on Purpose - The...

  “With American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson somehow manages to avoid the pitfalls of self-indulgence and self-importance that plague most (okay, all) Hollywood autobiographies. He has, instead, written a book that is hilarious and irrepressibly daft, yet also kind, poignant, and undeniably wise. It was a joy to read.”  — Dennis Lehane, New York Times Bestselling author of The Given Day 
  Ferguson delivers a moving and achingly funny memoir of living the American dream as he journeys from the mean streets of Glasgow, Scotland, to the comedic promised land of Hollywood. Along the way he stumbles through several attempts to make his mark—as a punk rock musician, a construction worker, a bouncer, and, tragically, a modern dancer.  
  To numb the pain of failure, Ferguson found comfort in drugs and alcohol, addictions that eventually led to an aborted suicide attempt. (He forgot to do it when someone offered him a glass of sherry.) But his story has a happy ending: success on the hit sitcom The Drew Carey Show, and later as the host of CBS's Late Late Show. By far Ferguson's greatest triumph was his decision to become a U.S. citizen, a milestone he achieved in early 2008. 
  In American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson talks a red, white, and blue streak about everything our Founding Fathers feared.

  Dogs Like Us

  People often chose a dog that resembles themselves, consciously or unconsciously.  Even scientific experiments have proved it. For example, you rarely find a Hell's Angel with a bichon frisé, or a sweet little old lady with a bulldog. A gentle quiet academic wouldn't normally chose a boisterous border collie, nor would an energetic teenager chose a basset hound.
  
  Our beloved dogs are rather like our choice of car or the clothes we wear. The science writer David Robson says, 'The canine mini-me reveals a narcissistic tendency in us all.'
  
  In these humorous, colourful illustrations of doppelgänger dogs, artist John Holder has depicted a superb, visually entertaining collection of dogs and their owners in all their lookalike glory. A treat for dog owners everywhere.
