“I was amazed by the diversity
of the Australians in London; that they weren’t all the stereotypical nomadic drunks that work in pubs for a couple of months while living in shared houses with three to a cutlery drawer before taking off on alcohol-fuelled tours of the continent, but had penetrated almost every facet of London life.”

Dylan Nichols gives his amusing and honest version of Australian people living in London. His narration is enriched by his own personal experiences, together with some humorous snippets from fellow Australian travellers whilst living in the capital. Significant political and historic facts about famous Australians make this a very interesting read.

Stories of Faith - Among the White Mountain Apache People

In November 1993, at the request of the Bishop of Gallup, Father Bernard Green and Sister Darlene of the Society of the Divine Savior decided to take up ministry among the White Mountain Apache people of central Arizona. Despite harsh conditions on the reservation, they immersed themselves in the culture of the Apache, discovering a deeply spiritual people caught between their own customs and identity, and the Anglo world in which they must live to survive. From their deep faith in God and poignant rituals to the shockingly high incidence of alcoholism and suicide, the Apache's tale is a conflicting one of celebration and sorrow, tradition and modernity.

To The Terraces Born - Classic Football Terrace Reading

In this eye-opening and often shocking exposé of football hooliganism, self-confessed delinquent Trevor Denton reveals the testosterone-fuelled antics of the men who wreak havoc on the terraces and have made English football fans so internationally reviled.
Yet theirs is no mindless anarchy: they plan their violence with impressive military precision, and factions are controlled by self-appointed, mafia-style bosses. At home, Denton and his tribe are fiercely loyal to their beloved Chelsea, and equally fierce in their antagonism towards other clubs. But once abroad, all boundaries break down and the English ‘fans’ become united under one bloody flag.
While the beautiful game itself figures only incidentally in these pages, Denton’s candid, exuberant narrative offers an intriguing insight into one of the more chilling aspects of English culture. With language that is likely to offend and a distinctly non-PC flavour, To the Terraces Born is not for the liberal or squeamish.
