  'I want absolutely nothing to do with this book.' – Owen Farrell  
  THREE RUGBY MEGASTARS. 
  ONE EPIC BOOK. 
  Welcome to the wild world of The Good, The Bad & The Rugby.  
  They say what goes on tour stays on tour…but not this time. 
  Dive headfirst into the banter, bruises and brilliance of rugby with the team behind The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast. Packed with shenanigans, laugh-out-loud stories and a little chaos, this book offered a behind-the-scenes pass to the lives, laughs and legendary matches of three rugby megastars – on and off the pitch. 
  'There's rugby, laughter and, of course, more of me' – JAMES HASKELL 
  'The lawyers are once again on standby' – ALEX PAYNE 
  'I have no idea how this book deal was signed, but in the spirit of GBR -"Once in, all in"' – MIKE TINDALL 
  Among the key questions answered are:What happened when Mike took their shambles of a podcast inside the walls of Windsor Castle to meet the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Princess Royal?How did James end up nearly killing himself on the way to the DJ set, find himself forced to save Payno from Tins and get confronted by irate fan?Why did Alex's broadcasting career sink to such depressing depths? And will it ever recover? (Spoiler alert – it won't.) 
  In this epically no-holds-barred book, all three of them go behind the scenes of the hugely successful podcast, pulling back the curtain to reveal their most outrageous antics on tour – the ups, the downs and the sideways – and leaving no story untold. 
  All is unleashed. 
  This top non-fiction autobiography is a humorous and personal account of the trio's adventures in podcasting. Their tales of recreation and webcasting mishaps will leave you in stitches. 
  For fans of Rachel Murphy (Just A Child), Joe Marler (Loose Head), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), and Jonny Wilkinson (Jonny).

  Si las montañas se alzan al sur y los ríos corren hacia el norte…, entonces esto es la Val d'Aran. Situado tras el cordón montañoso que forman algunos de los picos emblemáticos de los Pirineos, como los Besiberris, el Tuc de Mulleres o el circo de Colomèrs, la Val d'Aran dormita plácidamente en la cara norte de la cordillera. Es un territorio de fuerte personalidad, el único valle del Pirineo catalán que mira al Atlántico, mientras por el rabillo del ojo otea el Mediterráneo desde el túnel de Vielha. Sus bosques, cumbres y lagos, son el objetivo de las rutas de esta guía.
  La mayoría de los núcleos de población del Aran se alojan a orillas del río Garona, que recorre el valle de este a oeste y forma la auténtica columna vertebral de este territorio. Pero en este valle también abundan las villas encaramadas a las alturas, ya que el 30% de superficie aranesa está situada por encima de los 2000 metros. De hecho, la Val d'Aran es de los primeros en vestirse de blanco cuando, en pleno otoño, las nevadas comienzan a perfilar las cumbres pirenaicas. Es buena época para salir de excursión, pues las nevadas tempranas coinciden con la explosión de color los bosques, un espectáculo que ilumina el valle con infinidad de tonalidades.

  Borghild Strandenes is a Norwegian woman living in France where she runs a small non-profit rescue association, specialised in helping blind dogs and dogs suffering from trauma. In 2020 she flies to Cyprus to bring three blind dogs to France. Whilst on the island she meets Shakespeare, a dog that has sat “frozen “in a concrete corner for five years. Noone has seen Shakespeare stand up, nor eat, as he will only eat and move in the night when there is no humans at the sanctuary. Shakespeare has been visited by trainers and behaviourists alike, who all say there’s no hope for Shakespeare. He is a doomed dog, they say – only alive due to his beating heart. Then, one winter morning a meeting at a shelter, on a plateau in Cyprus changes both their lives forever - and through this memoir you can follow their magical, heartbreaking, uplifting, incredible journey

  Green Greenwich reveals the many green spaces in the Royal Borough of Greenwich in south east London. Candy Blackham has spent three years exploring the woods, flowery meadows, parks and nature reserves with her camera. She shares with us her enjoyment of the many sites which are found around almost every corner, and all within forty minutes of central London. Each site has a brief historical description and photographs which tempt us to go walking every day of the year as the trees change from bare branches to green leaves, and then the brilliant jewel-like colours of autumn. As you walk in the parks discover herons, foxes, many varieties of butterflies and other insects, and of course the ever-present ring-necked parakeets. Walk along the Thames, enjoy views from hilltops, explore the canals of Thamesmead, and take time to enjoy the calm of the natural surroundings. Candy Blackham has given us another unique book which invites us to go walking beyond our usual haunts and reminds us how fortunate we are to have these green spaces and how much they depend on our protection and vigilance so that they are not lost in London's growth.

  The Turning Tide

  An immersive history of a pivotal stretch of water 
  ‘Fascinating, spellbinding, erudite and great fun.’ Roddy Doyle 
  ‘Remarkable. Lively … Gower writes beautifully [and] the book is profoundly popular.’ Times Literary Supplement 
  The Turning Tide is a hymn to a sea passage of world-historical importance. Combining social and cultural history, nature-writing, travelogue and politics, Welshman Jon Gower charts a sea which has carried both Vikings and saints; invasion forces, royals and rebels; writers, musicians and fishermen. 
  The divided but interconnected waters of the Irish Sea – from the narrow North Channel through St George’s Channel to where the Celtic sea opens out into the wide Atlantic – have a turbulent history to match the violence of its storms. Jon Gower is a sympathetic and interested pilot, taking the reader to the great shipyards of Belfast and through the mass exodus of the starving during the Irish Famine in coffin boats bound for America. He follows the migrations of working men and women looking for work in England and tells the tales of more casual travellers: sometimes seasick, often homesick too. 
  The Irish Sea is also a place with an abundant natural history. The rarest sea bird in Europe visits its coasts in summer while the rarest goose wings in during winter. 
  The Turning Tide navigates waters teeming with life, filled with seals and salt-tanged stories and surveyed by seabirds. Lyrically written and fizzing with curiosity, this is a remarkable and far-reaching book. 
  The latest work from award-winning author Jon Gower, The Turning Tide, is a short-listed masterpiece that delves into the geography of Ireland and Britain. This prize-winning book is a testament to his winning storytelling, making it a top pick for readers. 
  For fans of John Lewis-Stempel (The War Behind the Wire), Mark Rees (The Little Book of Welsh Culture), Stephen Rule (Welsh and I), Alice Roberts (The Little Book of Humanism), and Darren Chetty (How to Disagree).
