Danny Baker`s third volume of memoirs barrels along at the same cracking pace as its predecessors, the bestselling Going to Sea in a Sieve (the inspiration for the major TV series Cradle to Grave & subsequent nationwide tour) & Going off Alarming. With his trademark exuberance, he recalls the years which included six years` involvement in the massive TV hit TFI Friday (`piling it up with hellzapoppin` ideas`)
- during which time he stalked John Cleese in New York, entertained David Bowie & Paul Mc Cartney, bizarrely reunites with Sir Michael Caine, gets befriended by Peter O` Toole & becomes a member of Led Zeppelin for 35 minutes. However, the tales are not reliant on celebrity alone, & the book comes packed with the usual"a of Baker family jewels, including Spud`s attitude to doctors, Danny`s trip to Amsterdam to get stoned for the first time (he fails), getting caught up in football rioting, & the now infamous `kaboom` of an outburst following his despatch from BBC London. & then there`s the cancer. Spoiler alert: this is the one in which he almost dies. Further spoiler alert: he doesn`t. Going on the Turn is a rollicking read that fizzes with wit, warmth & enviable joie de vivre.

` You empower yourself & then you reach out to others.` Uplifting life lessons from one of the greatest leaders the world has ever known... through the eyes of the grandson whose life he changed forever. In his book Going to the Mountain, Ndaba Mandela shares the story of his coming-of-age alongside South Africa`s rebirth. It is a remarkable journey, & one that took him from the violent, segregated Soweto ghettos to his grandfather`s presidential home. As a young boy, Ndaba was constantly shunted from place to place. But at eleven years old he was unexpectedly invited to live with his grandfather, Nelson Mandela, even though he had met him only once before, during a prison visit. &, slowly, they built a relationship that would affect both of them profoundly. Ndaba`s teenage years were complicated, but as he approached his twenty-first birthday, Mandela decided that Ndaba was finally ready to `go to the mountain`
- a test of courage during which you become a man. At the end of this gruelling ritual journey, the elders of the Mandelas` tribe gathered & Ndaba`s grandfather was there, as ever, to share his greatest life lessons. From Nelson Mandela, Ndaba learned the spirit of endurance, the triumph of forgiveness, the power of resistance & the beauty of reconciliation. & as Mandela grew older, Ndaba had the chance to repay his grandfather`s love & support by demonstrating the ways in which he`d understood all that he had taught him. Intimate & inspirational, Going to the Mountain is a powerful reminder of how one person can impact profoundly on another, & a testament to the awesome power within us to change ourselves & our world.
