Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A number one bestseller, this favourite New Zealand novel captures a real 19th century community. The bleak coal-mining settlement of Denniston, isolated high on a plateau above New Zealand's West Coast, is a place that makes or breaks those who live there. At the time of this novel - the 1880s - the only way to reach the makeshift collection of huts, tents and saloons is to climb aboard an empty coal-wagon to be hauled 2000 feet up the terrifyingly steep Incline - the cable-haulage system that brings the coal down to the railway line. All sorts arrive here to work the mines and bring out the coal- ex-goldminers down on their luck; others running from the law, or from a woman, or worse. They work alongside recruited English miners, solid and skilled, who scorn these disorganised misfits and want them off the Hill. Into this chaotic community come five-year-old Rose and her mother, riding up the Incline, at night, during a storm. No one knows what has driven them there, but most agree the mother must be desperate to choose Denniston; worse, to choose that drunkard Jimmy Cork as bedfellow. The mother has her reasons and her plans, which she tells no one. The indomitable Ro. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Nic Hall (illustrator). One of the most significant books to have been written by a New Zealand business leader. Phillip Mills, the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year and a global exporter of fitness programmes to 71 countries, has spent the last year forming his views on health and fitness and sustainability into an engaging and challenging book, Fighting Globesity. All New Zealanders should read it. As Phillip jokes, What would a couple of gym bunnies know about climate change and sustainability? As it turns out, rather a lot. Phillip has done wide reading and research in this area over the last few years. From that he has distilled a carefully argued message: we need to get fit and stay fit, we need to consume fewer resources, we need to urgently engage with health and climate change issues - and we can make a difference. In this he may well be a step ahead of many other business thinkers. Accompanied by exercise and training programmes, nutritional information, recipes and more, FIGHTING GLOBESITY is a perfect health, fitness and philosophy package. FIGHTING GLOBESITY - A Practical Guide To Personal Health And Global Sustainability combines the Mills's experience to create a cutting-edge lifestyle prescription which will be sustainable for both the individual and the planet. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. As New Zealanders become increasingly discerning about the wines we are buying and drinking, we are also appreciating the marvellous array of high-quality wines being produced in New Zealand. WINE IN NEW ZEALAND is a serious introduction to this complex and fascinating topic. It looks first at New Zealand as a wine-growing country, focusing on the grape varieties and on the key regions from Auckland and Northland to Central Otago. Important aspects of vineyard design and viticulture are covered, and a year in the vineyard is tracked season by season. The intricacies of winemaking are clearly explained, and the mysteries of what a winemaker actually does are revealed. A key part of the book is a wine-by-wine description of the key varieties produced in New Zealand. From Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon, from Methode Traditionelle to dessert wines, information is given on the characteristics (including regional differences and vintages), special cultivation and winemaking techniques. Useful chapters on selection and cellaring wine, keeping records, wine tasting, serving wine, and matching food and wine complete this informative and practical book. Illustrated throughout with maps, diagrams and high-quality colour photographs, this is an important addition to any wine-lover's bookshelf. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Following his magisterial & ingenious re-creations of the lives of Chaucer, Dickens, T. S. Eliot, William Blake, & Sir Thomas More, Ackroyd delivers his crowning achievement w/ this DEFINITVE & IMAGINATIVE biographical MASTERPIECE. Thousands of books have been written about Shakespeare, but none has borne Ackroyd's unique & accessible stamp. His method is to position the playwright in the context of his world, exploring everything from Stratford's humble town to its fields of wildflowers; discerning influences on the plays from unexpected quarters; & entering London w/ the playwright as modern theater, as we know it, is just beginning to emerge. Writing as though we are observing Shakespeare & his circle of friends, patrons, managers, & fellow actors & writers, Ackroyd is able to see Shakespeare's genius from within, so we feel that Ackroyd the writer merges with Shakespeare the writer, the poet, the man; & thus w/ great sympathy & clarity we experience the way in which Shakespeare worked. Ackroyd has used his skill, his extraordinary knowledge, & his historical intuition to craft this major full-scale book on one of the most towering figures of the English language. * HIGH PRAISE: "Ackroyd brings to his biographical reading the IMAGINATIVE INSIGHTS of a gifted poet & novelist, along w/ the passions of a scholar. VIVID & CAPACIOUS, a study worthy of its subject." -Bryce Christensen, Booklist (Starred Review) "The great strength of Acjkroyd's book is the depth of his IMMERSION in the culture of Shakespeare's age & the sense he gives of Shakespeare as the product of that extraordinary moment in time. His feeling for the role of theater in Elizabethan London, 'a city where dramatic spectacles became the primary means of understanding reality,' seems to come from an impressively wide reading of Shakespeare's dramatic & poetic contemporaries. His judgments about the work itself are sometimes ingenious, occasionally eccentric. Immersion in Ackroyd's biography gives one a feeling that one has lived for a brief time in Shakespeare's world." -Ron Rosenbaum, Publishers Weekly * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Protean scholar & man-of-letters, PETER ACKROYD is the author of "London: The Biography" & "Albion: The Origins of the English Imagination", acclaimed biographies of T.S. Eliot, Dickens, Blake, & Sir Thomas More, & several successful novels. He has won the Whitbread Book Award for Biography, the Royal Society of Literature's William Heinemann Award, the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, the Somerset Maugham Award, & the South Bank Award for Literature. He lives in London. * SHIPPING: We custom wrap & label & securely package this superb book for shipment via USPS Media Mail at no charge (or via USPS Priority Mail for a nominal $10.00 fee) within the United States or at our posted rates to international destinations via USPS First Class Airmail (recommended) or USPS Priority Airmail (rates on request).
