  How much do you really know about the club you love? You can find out by exploring the 1,000 questions set out in 100 categories that make up this Southampton Quiz Book. It's not often that books on football make reference to Frasier, Alfred Hitchcock, Ritz Crackers, Henry VIII, Stalin, The Sweeney and The Who but this one does!
  The Southampton Quiz Book is a quirky, challenging affair for real Saints fans who can test themselves or take each other on, with the emphasis on enjoyment and discovery.
  Try these for size:
  Take one 1990's Saints defender, add two letters to his name and produce another! Who are the two players?
  Which ground did Southampton win an FA Cup semi-final on in 1902 and lose one in 1986?
  Who is the only Saints manager to score the winning goal in a European Cup Final at Wembley?
  You will struggle to find anything as comprehensive as this eclectic collection. It's a must for Saints fans of all ages and you might not read anything quite like it again.

  An exclusive look at America's first family of renovation! Taking you behind the scenes, Chip and Joanna Gaines share the story of how they met, the ups and downs of being an entrepreneurial couple, and how they built a life they love. 
  The Magnolia Story is the first book from dynamic husband-and-wife team Chip and Joanna Gaines, stars of HGTV’s Fixer Upper. Offering their fans a detailed look at their life together, they share everything from the very first renovation project they ever tackled together to the project that nearly cost them everything; from the childhood memories that shaped them, to the twists and turns that led them to the life they share on the farm today. 
  While they both attended Baylor University in Waco, their paths didn’t cross until Chip checked his car into the local Firestone tire shop where Joanna worked behind the counter. Even back then Chip was a serial entrepreneur who, among other things, ran a lawn care company, sold fireworks, and flipped houses. Soon they were married and living in their first fixer upper. 
  Four children and countless renovations later, Joanna garnered the attention of a television producer who noticed her work on a blog one day, leading to the incredible Fixer Upper phenomenon. 
  In The Magnolia Story, fans will finally get to join the Gaines family behind the scenes and discover:The time Chip ran to the grocery store and forgot to take their new, sleeping babyJoanna’s agonizing decision to close her dream business to focus on raising their childrenWhen Chip buys a houseboat, sight-unseen, and it turns out to be a leaky wreckHarrowing stories of the financial ups and downs as an entrepreneurial coupleMemories and photos from Chip and Jo’s weddingThe significance of the word magnolia and why it permeates everything they doThe way the couple pays the popularity of Fixer Upper forward, sharing the success with others, and bolstering the city of Waco along the way 
  And yet there is still one lingering question for fans of the show: Is Chip really that funny? “Oh yeah,” says Joanna. “He was, and still is, my first fixer upper.”

  The History of Texas Wine - From...

  Sample the untold history of Texas’s wine industry in this book filled with fascinating stories and photos.   Spanish colonists may have come to Texas to spread Christianity, but under visionary Father Fray Garcia, they stayed and raised grapes. Later immigrants brought their own burgundy tastes of home, creating a unique wine country. When a North American pest threatened European vines, it was Texan scientist T. V. Munson who helped save the industry overseas. When Prohibition loomed stateside, Frank Qualia's Val Verde Winery in Del Rio survived by selling communion wine—and it’s now the longest-operating bonded winery in the state.   Today, tourists flock to Texas vineyards, and the state sells more wine every year. Join local experts Kathy and Neil Crain and sample the untold story of Texas's wine industry, a 350-year story that is still reaching its savory peak.
