Описание: What is it to be a stand-up comedian? To be funny, solo? You have no character-role, no double-act partner, and nowhere to look but out into the darkness, with just a microphone, an audience and your imagination. This is a job without an annual appraisal; a job where you are publicly appraised every ten seconds. The results are harsh and obvious: if the audience isn’t laughing, you ‘died’; if they can’t stop, you ‘killed’. Deborah Frances-White and Marsha Shandur unpack the inner-workings of the minds of comics, sharing their secrets, insecurities and successes; their betes noires and their biggest fears. Featuring interviews with a host of comedians including Eddie Izzard, Moshe Kasher, Sarah Millican, Jim Jeffries, Stewart Lee, Lewis Black, Jenny Eclair, Todd Barry, Richard Herring, Marc Maron, Stephen K Amos, Rich Hall, Zoe Lyons, Marcus Brigstocke, Phill Jupitus, Gary Delaney, Mark Watson, Greg Davies and many more, this excellent book lets you in to the hearts and minds of celebrated comedians, away from the stage and off the mic.

Описание: Hampstead Heath is London's favourite open space, walked over by thousands every day. This richly illustrated book unveils what anyone strolling on the Heath can watch out for, including a geological structure unique for London, nurturing very particular flora; veteran trees; the 'ghosts' of ancient woodland and hedgerows dating back to the Middle Ages and beyond; Anglo-Saxon estate boundaries; traces of the great estates of the 18th century, of which Kenwood is the sole survivor. As the authors explains, the Heath would have been covered in housing had it not been for our determined, cunning and generous forebears, who outwitted the landowners step by step to secure the landscape for us all.

Описание: Eat like a Duchess and get to know more about one of England's great houses and the family who live there.
Although she is the first to admit that she herself hasn't cooked for half a century, Deborah, Duchess of Devonshire is deeply interested in good food. Chatsworth is renowned for its superb farm shop, its brilliant catering and by those lucky enough to have sampled it – the delectable product of this private kitchen.
In this book, the Duchess has collected the recipes for dishes that she loves. They range from simple soups and suppers to sumptuous dinner, and include brunches and breads and some of the cakes, jams and marmalades that sell so successfully under the Duchess of Devonshire's own label.
Each section – and many of the recipes – comes with a personal introduction from the Duchess in which she mixes history, observation and wit in the style that has gained her such a devoted following.

Описание:
An engaging picture book biography of Frances Perkins, the first woman cabinet member and activist who created the Social Security program. From award-winning author Deborah Hopkinson.
At 31, Frances Perkins witnessed the Triangle Waist Factory fire in 1911, one of the worst industrial disasters in U.S. history. The event forever changed her, and while some activists pressed factory owners for change, Frances actually got to work and joined the fight for workers' rights.
It was when Frances Perkins became Secretary of Labor in Franklin Delano Roosevelt's administration--the first woman cabinet member--that she had the opportunity to make real her bold vision of a country where no one is left out and Americans are protected. Thanks to her efforts, we have the Social Security program, a move that changed Americans' lives for generations to come.
Deborah Hopkinson's energetic text and Kristy Caldwell's appealing illustrations unite to tell Perkins' fascinating story as well as introduce early concepts of financial literacy, the Social Security Act, and the New Deal. Back matter features more information about Frances Perkins, Social Security, and resources for economic education. eBook available.

Описание:
PIECE BY PIECE is one woman's version of the "old redemption story". How a loving God called and pursued her. How the people He both allowed and sent into her life were used for His purposes. How He continued to protect and love her even when she rejected Him. And how the Word of God broke all the barriers she had set up and she was able to hear and experience the amazing salvation story....the unfathomable love of God the Father who created her; salvation by grace through the life, death, and resurrection of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ; of her ongoing sanctification through the work of the Holy Spirit; of the transformation of her life and mind through the washing of the water of the Word; and of the gifts of repentance and forgiveness that enable her to live a life of holiness, clothed in the righteousness of Jesus. This is Deborah's testimony of the faithfulness of God through her pain, hurt, anger, and repeated rejections. She is a beloved child of God who has surrendered her life to be a worshiper, worker, and witness in the Kingdom of God. Deborah White resides in McDonough, Georgia with her dog, Molly. She has four children, one being in heaven, and three grandchildren. She happily attends church with her twin sister in McDonough, Georgia, where acceptance and love are freely given. Attending a women's Bible Study is one of her favorite places to learn more about God's grace and love. She is currently fulfilling a long-time passion: taking sign language classes. She embraces the privilege of working with people who suffer with mental illnesses. She daily enjoys taking new steps on her journey of learning to rest in the arms of her Abba Father, God.
