  The finest book on Britain's most popular rock 'n' roll band'Read on … It's all true' Noel Gallagher 
  Featuring an exclusive interview with Noel Gallagher and bespoke artwork by celebrated Oasis album designer Brian Cannon 
  Think Oasis was just Britpop and brawls? 
  Think again. 
  John Robb was there every step of the way. In this, the definitive book on Britain’s biggest band, he peels back the layers of Manchester’s best-known musical export, revealing a tale of ambition, ego, talent and a whole lot of attitude. From the estates of South Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom, Live Forever is a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. But it is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped, and were shaped by, two cocksure upstarts from Burnage – from art to fashion, and from football to politics. 
  Playful, funny and irreverent, and drawing on dozens of interviews and first-hand stories, this book puts Oasis squarely in the pantheon of music royalty as the last great rock ’n’ roll stars. 
  John Robb's Live Forever is a Sunday Times bestselling book that takes readers on a journey through the history of Oasis. This biography, a top pick in non-fiction, explores the styles and influences that shaped the band, making it a must-read for fans of music history. 
  For fans of Simon Spence (All or Nothing), Legs Mcneil (I Slept With Joey Ramone), Steven Blush (Hard-Core), Lol Tolhurst (Cured), and Nige Tassell (Searching for Dexys Midnight Runners).

  Despite these challenges, Havel embarked on a remarkable journey, becoming a renowned playwright and essayist, a leading figure in the Velvet Revolution that toppled the communist regime, and the first president of the newly formed Czech Republic. His unwavering commitment to truth and justice, coupled with his profound understanding of humanity, made him a beacon of hope for millions around the world. 
  This biography delves into the life and legacy of Václav Havel, exploring his formative years, his literary and political contributions, and his enduring impact on the global stage. It is a testament to the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and champion the cause of freedom.

  One hot Monday morning in 1976, Albert Spaggiari had engineered the European crime of the century.
  A bank president in Nice, France found his vault welded shut—from the inside—with a note left behind that read, "Without guns, without violence, without hate." Spaggiari and his gang of 20 men had dug a 25-foot tunnel from the city's sewer system into the bank, where they spent a weekend cooking meals, drinking wine, and clearing millions of dollars in gold, jewelry, gems, and cash. Here is the breathtakingly compelling story of Spaggiari, his "sewer gang," and the most daring, outrageous theft of the 20th century.
