    SHOCK! HORROR! Shakespeare really did write the works ascribed to him. But how could a relatively poor, ignorant provincial lad have written such masterpieces? How did he acquire the knowledge implicit in his plays - the details of historical events, tales of foreign countries? How did he spend his time in the so-called "lost years"? This book attempts to provide in fictional form answers to these questions and introduces the reader to some of the extraordinary characters the budding playwright would have encountered, particularly Thomas James, who in later years developed a reputation as the "cleverest man in England" after his appointment as the first librarian to the Bodleian Library in Oxford.

    THE FOOTBALLING MORGAN FAMILY OF BRISTOL is the result of many years' work by the author, investigating and researching the Morgan family from North-East Bristol. They were a large and sporting family, excelling in swimming, water polo, pigeon racing and most notably, football. Five members of the Morgan family played football at a high level, and others played for local teams in the Bristol area. Two, Frederick 'Jerry' Morgan and William James 'Jimmy' Morgan played over 100 times each for Bristol Rovers, and full details of their careers have been compiled. The family is probably best well-known for fielding football teams made up of family members to raise money for local charities, which they organised from 1919 until the mid-1960s. In addition to the sporting aspect of the family, details of the family ancestry are explained in depth, together with details of associated families who married into the Morgan family. Many of the family ran public houses, and details of them have been included as an appendix. The written memories of the author's grandmother, Ivy Morgan, have been transcribed and they give a fascinating and detailed account of growing up in the north-eastern suburbs of Bristol in the early part of the 20th Century. Her wartime experiences are included, as well as many family anecdotes, photographs and documents. Many family members have kindly contributed family photographs and stories, and these have been included throughout the book. The book serves as a remarkable piece of both social and local history.

    The poems are about so many topics for children in school (educational)aged 10-14. History, social history, equality of the sexes, the environment, climate change and how this affects populations. Anna Claire was born on the Fylde coast, England in the 1950's. She spent a few years living in Cambridge, Norway and Denmark before returning to the Fylde coast. She has written several books, some under her former name of Anna Ashton. Anna has mainly written stories for children but also poetry, some for children and some of a more serious nature. She hopes that this little book encourages middle school children to learn about history, social history, the environment, social injustice and how to improve quality of life through following a healthy, physically and spiritually, way of life blending the teachings of east and west. Anna has five sons and several grandchildren.

    I admire northern grit and the ability Lancashire folk have to laugh at themselves as well as poke cheeky fun at others. I'd like to think some of that playful cheekiness has rubbed off on me and can be found here in my third chuckle book of Lanky Twang verse. It's a look at life through a Northern lens, laced with humour and nostalgia. So, time once again to get t' kettle on, turn a few pages and enjoy ... More Laffs from Lancashire.

    How did the public education system which now educates 93% of children in the UK begin? How did it evolve so that admission to 25% of state primary and 6% of state secondary schools is still controlled by the Church of England? 'so excellent a Work' explores the first 135 years of this important and fascinating national story. It began with a movement at the beginning of the 18th century which encouraged every parish in England and Wales to set up a charity school for the poor, a project which Queen Anne described as 'so excellent a Work'. Inspired by this initiative, in 1710 six enterprising and philanthropic men established a school to serve their own ancient community, the Royal Liberty of Havering. Against the odds, their foundation has continued to this day. Set against the changing historical panorama, this is the story of that charity school, the community it served, and the local people whose commitment ensured its survival. It is the story of the national politicians and personalities who fought for - or opposed - the establishment of a national system of public education for 'the lower orders'. Their motives, their attitudes and their rivalries may surprise you!
