Dawn Gorman sometimes wonders if she wasn't born, but hatched. Her cot, then childhood bed, were positioned in a small corner of her ornithologist father's study, known as 'the bird room': the epicentre of his lifelong obsession with birdwatching. But in spite of being immersed in this world of birds, Dawn resisted their appeal, and it was only when her father began his slow decline towards his death in 2020 that she started to hear them calling her. Too late to 'go birding' with him, this pamphlet has offered her a different way to collaborate with her father about those things of feather, flight and song - albeit posthumously on his part. Here she brings together some of the bird photographs he took during her childhood in the 1960s and a selection of her poems, to explore the impact of his birdwatching on her, on their relationship with each other, and on her own attitude to birds. Ultimately, though, this collaboration has at its heart not birds, but that other looked-for thing, love.

He had never planned to work in Public Transport, yet over thirty years Later, Alan Scriven MBE is still working 'on the buses'. In that time, he has been a driver, a manager, an inspector... and worked at numerous depots across the Midlands, making firm friends and occasionally clashing heads with fellow drivers, and even the odd passenger or two! As with so many industries, the public transport system has been subject to major, rigorous change over the decades. Alan has seen if not all, then quite a lot - and has many colourful stories as a result. Next Stop Please is a great read for anyone who has worked in this industry, or been a passenger on a bus. There is certainly a lot going on behind the scenes!

Is there anything in this world more precious than life itself? It follows then that the most gracious profession is to aid an expecting mother in the hours of her giving birth to a new life. Mária Szécsi practiced midwifery in the Great Hungarian Plain with the greatest diligence and self-devotion for almost thirty years. Her memoirs shed light on the rural life of 1930-40s Hungary and on the struggles and conditions of its people. "I never felt afraid; my only concern was to arrive in time!" The memoirist wrote these words referring to the occasions when she hurried in freezing snow, on pathless fields, in pitch dark, alone on the way to distant farms to provide aid to expecting mothers. But after all the hardships and struggles, could anybody really feel afraid while serving as an aid at the most gracious moment of the renascence of life and future?
