Wonderful World of Paper-Pieced...

Liza Taylor

When you combine a sampler quilt with the ever-growing popularity of foundation paper pieced quilt blocks--those inspired by nature and gorgeous quilting prints--it's a win, win. Author Liza Taylor has created 30 flower and creatures-of-flight blocks that have a sophisticated sensibility. Patterns include a butterfly, dragonfly, ladybug, poppy flower, lavender, larkspur, maple leaf, and fern! Individually, these blocks are beautiful; combined into a sampler quilt, they're simply fabulous. The blocks are so pretty that quilters may find themselves making extras for framing or wall hangings to complement their fresh new bedding. The blocks are offered in two sizes 5" and 7", with on-page templates, but Liza instructs quilters how to enlarge a foundation pattern if they're looking for alternative-size blocks. Wonderful World of Paper Pieced Blocks captures a fresh, modern vibe infused with the vintage charm of patchwork quilting.

News from Tartary - A Journey...

Peter Fleming

News from Tartary is the account of an illegal journey from Peking to Kashmir in 1935. The physical resilience which took companions Fleming and Ella Maillart across some of the world's most inaccessible mountains and deserts was matched by their bravery and luck. China was caught up in a vicious civil war, and local Muslim warlords were allying themselves with Soviet Russia. None of the foreign journalists who had attempted to report from the region in the previous eight years had come out alive. The relationship between Peter (foreign correspondent for The Times) and the adventurous Swiss traveller Ella becomes a source of gentle fascination. For beneath their easygoing charm, both had that sliver of ice required of a writer and had already travelled alone in the region, setting down their earlier adventures in One's Company and Turkestan Solo.

Still Ranting After All These Years

Dennis Miller

If you thought Dennis Miller was done ranting, guess again. In Still Ranting After All These Years, recorded in early 2002, Miller is in fine form, commenting on everything from ""War and Terrorism"" to Enron; from ""Obsessed Parents"" to the ""End of Class;"" to ""Truth in the Media,"" and so much more. Throughout, Miller is what we have come to expect from him: smart, cutting, laugh-out-loud funny, and more times than not ... right.

Not For All the Tea in China

Chris Burrows

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
I was born in 1947 to a mother from Barnsley and a father from Essex. I have three great loves in my life: Barnsley FC, Yorkshire County Cricket Club and my wonderful wife. My wife is my rock; Yorkshire CCC are my summertime passion; the Super Reds break my heart year after year - but I wouldn't swap them for any other team in the world. I have tried to look at the world of business through the gaze of a mixture of reality, humour and, on occasions, sheer disbelief. Every word and every event documented is the absolute truth. If you enjoy reading this book half as much as I enjoyed writing it, then I will have achieved more than I could ever have hoped for.
