Summary

In the groundbreaking work 'No Way Out' by U. G. Krishnamurti, the author delves into the complex interplay between the mind and the self, challenging traditional notions of enlightenment and spiritual growth. Krishnamurti's writing style is sharp and direct, eschewing flowery language in favor of stark truths and unconventional wisdom. Drawing on his own experiences and encounters, the book pushes readers to question their beliefs and assumptions about existence and the nature of reality. Set in the backdrop of the 20th century, 'No Way Out' stands as a bold critique of traditional spiritual teachings, offering a fresh perspective on the search for meaning and enlightenment. U. G. Krishnamurti, a spiritual teacher and philosopher, was known for his unorthodox views and rejection of traditional spiritual practices. His personal journey and disillusionment with the spiritual teachings of his time led him to write 'No Way Out', a thought-provoking critique of the spiritual industry and human quest for enlightenment. For readers seeking a challenging and thought-provoking read, 'No Way Out' by U. G. Krishnamurti offers a unique perspective on the nature of enlightenment and self-realization. This book is recommended for those interested in exploring unconventional spiritual teachings and questioning the foundations of their beliefs.

    A Waterstones Best History Book of the Year 
The bestselling history of the North of England as told through the lives of its inhabitants. 
‘Entertaining’ The Times 
‘Definitive’ The Mirror 
‘Highly readable’ Financial Times 
A work of unrivalled scale and ambition, Northerners is the defining biography of northern England. 
This authoritative new history of place and people lays out the dramatic events that created the north – waves of migration, invasions and battles, and transformative changes wrought on European culture and the global economy. In a sweeping narrative that takes us from the earliest times to the present day, the book shows that the people of the north have shaped Britain and the world in unexpected ways. 
At least six Roman emperors ruled from York. The Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Northumbria was Europe’s leading cultural and intellectual centre. Cartimandua, Queen of the Brigantes, deserves to be as famous as Boudica. Neanderthals and Vikings, Central European Jews, African-Caribbeans and South Asians, have all played their part in the making and remaking of the north. Northern writers, activists, artists and comedians are celebrated the world over, from Wordsworth, the Brontes and Gaskell to LS Lowry, Emmeline Pankhurst and Peter Kay. St Oswald and Bede shaped the spiritual and cultural landscapes of Britain and Europe, and the world was revolutionised by the inventions of Richard Arkwright and the Stephensons. The north has exported some of sport’s biggest names and defined the sound of generations, from the Beatles to Britpop. 
Northerners also shows convincingly how the past echoes down the centuries. The devastation of factory and pit closures in the 1980s, for example, recalled the trauma of William the Conqueror’s Harrying of the North. The book charts how the north-south divide has ebbed and flowed and explores the very real divisions between northerners, such as the rivalry between Lancashire and Yorkshire. 
Finally, Brian Groom explores what northernness means today and the crucial role the north can play in Britain’s future. As new forces threaten the fabric of the UK again, this landmark book could scarcely be more timely. 
This historical masterpiece by Brian Groom is a top pick for those who appreciate a deep dive into the social fabric of northern England. It's not just an autobiography of a region, but a travel through time, revealing the popular narratives and untold stories that have shaped its identity. 
For fans of Rick Broadbent (Jessica Ennis), Tom Holland (The Rest is History), Simon Jenkins (The Celts), Andy Burnham (Head North), and Ian Mortimer (Medieval Horizons).

    She was a spirited young heiress. He was a handsome baronet with a promising career in government. The marriage of Lady Seymour Dorothy Fleming and Sir Richard Worsley had the makings of a fairy tale—but ended as one of the most scandalous and highly publicized divorces in history.In February 1782, England opened its newspapers to read the details of a criminal conversation trial in which the handsome baronet Sir Richard Worsley attempted to sue his wife's lover for an astronomical sum in damages. In the course of the proceedings, the Worsleys' scandalous sexual arrangements, voyeuristic tendencies, and bed-hopping antics were laid bare. The trial and its verdict stunned society, but not as much as the unrepentant behavior of Lady Worsley.Sir Joshua Reynolds captured the brazen character of his subject when he created his celebrated portrait of Lady Worsley in a fashionable red riding habit, but it was her shocking affairs that made her divorce so infamous that even George Washington followed it in the press. Impeccably researched and written with great flair, Hallie Rubenhold's The Lady in Red is a lively and moving true history that presents a rarely seen picture of aristocratic life in the Georgian era.
