  Are You a Running W*nker?: The...

  Essential listening for every runner – it's time to find out, could you too be a Running W*nker? 
  Alison Stankard is a Running W*nker. 
  But it didn’t happen overnight. A few morning stumbles around the block in a bid to become pert-bottomed somehow turned into something else: 5ks, 10ks, marathons and even ultra marathons. Then one day, whilst looking at her at her lack of toenails, embarrassingly large collection of training shoes and collection of buffs, it dawned on her: she had become a Running W*nker. 
  Some people can go out for an occasional run and not obsess over every little detail. They might not think to take a photo of their hill sprints to post on social media or be able to recite their splits from the race that got them a PB to anybody who ’ ll listen. All impossible if you’re a true Running W*nker. 
  There are a lot of books about running. Serious books with marathon plans, advice on nutrition and injury prevention. This book isn’t that. It’s a sweary, honest celebration of all the things that Running W*nkers new and old get up to: shitting in bushes, going down the stairs on your arse because your legs won’t bend the day after a marathon, lying about how much trainers cost and plotting how to rig the London Marathon ballot. 
  The question is: are you a Running W*nker too? 
  For runners who pretend it’s all about health and fitness, this non-fiction humour story nails the topic with the best, most top-tier stories of sports-and-exercise madness. From jogging “for recreation” to living for the latest running obsession, it’s a brutally honest celebration of what you do when you’re definitely a Running W*nker.

  Orchid Hunters

  The pinnacle of orchid hunting activity was in the nineteenth century when prices for individual plants reached astonishing levels. Such were the profits to be made that many of the most active orchid hunters were directly employed by orchid nurseries in Britain and Europe. These were not the aristocratic administrators of empire; they were trained gardeners and horticulturalists who had a yearning to travel and see for themselves where the plants they nurtured had come from. In this book we explore the activities of these orchid hunters through the years, from the eighteenth century right into the twenty-first century, when the camera replaced the axe and spade. Many of these stories are rarely told in the context of the society that demanded ever bigger and more flamboyant orchids. Some were collected and the sites they had come from forgotten. Some were so valuable that the sites were kept secret, or misleading information given about their origin, even the wrong country being suggested for some. Orchid hunting was not always safe and some collectors never came home. Of those that did return, contemporary documents suggest that some of the stories they came back with enhanced the value of their plants, but were not always entirely accurate in their details. Using original documents as source material, for the first time tales of orchids lost and found, as well as those that sought them, are told in their entirety.
