The Fruit Hunters
£18.99
Looking beyond the familiar fruits Adam Gollner enters the underworld of inaccessible, obscure, even forbidden fruits. In this Willy Wonka-like world of mangos that taste like pina colados, ice cream beans, peanut butter fruits & the miracle fruit that makes sour taste sweet we meet a cast of bizarre characters
- fruitarians who believe that a fruit diet is instrumental in achieving enlightenment, fruit smugglers, obsessed horticulturalists & the fanatical fruit detective who has turned himself orange because he has eaten so many apricots. Revealing the extraordinary universe of fruit
- from the jungles of Borneo to the forests of Bali & vast fruit warehouses in New York
- Gollner explains the scientific, economic & aesthetic reasons why we eat particular fruits. Fruit has held as powerful a sway over man as gold or myrrh. Fruit has led nations into war, inspired religious worship & fuelled dictatorships. It has been the motive behind exploration. Although nature contains hundreds of thousands of varieties of exotic fruits, only a few dozen varieties are available in supermarkets. Gollner describes the political & economic interests behind the mass-produced fruits we all eat. Discover that there is more to the world of fruit than the bland shelves of a supermarket, travel the world with Adam Gollner in search of fruits few have ever heard of (and even fewer have actually tasted).

The Full Catastrophe:
Inside The Greek
Crisis
£9.99
Greece has always been celebrated for its classical past, whitewashed villages & cerulean seas, but in recent years the country has been at the centre of a debt crisis that has sown economic ruin, spurred panic in international markets, & tested Europe`s decades-old project of forging a closer union. With vivid character-driven narratives & engaging reporting that offers an immersive sense of place, this comprehensive account brings to life the causes of the country`s financial collapse & examines the changes emerging in its aftermath. A rebellion against tax authorities breaks out on a normally serene Aegean isl&. A mayor from a bucolic, northern Greek village is gunned down by the municipal treasurer. An ageing, leftist hero of the Second World War fights to win compensation from Germany for the wartime occupation. A once marginal group of neo-Nazis rises to political prominence out of a ramshackle Athens neighborhood. THE FULL CATASTROPHE goes beyond the transient coverage in the daily headlines to deliver an enduring & absorbing portrait of modern Greece. ...

The Full Cycle
The Full Cycle
£12.95
Vin Denson`s ” The Full Cycle” is the story of that remarkable career, one of loyalty, courage & friendship. Vin Denson was a racing cyclist for almost half a century, & his career ran the full cycle. He began as he ended
- as a typical English clubman, riding the weekly club time trial & strapping on a saddlebag for the weekend hostel tour. In between were eight glorious years spent as a professional on the Continent when he rode with & against the very best riders of his era. During that period he worked selflessly in the engine room of the peloton; he was the original `super domestique`, & Jacques Anquetil & Rik Van Looy thought the world of him, even if they showed their gratitude in totally different ways. But he was also capable of winning on his own account. In addition to many other successes, Vin was the first Briton to win a stage of the Tour of Italy, & stages in the tough Dunkirk 4-Days race. His victory in the Tour of Luxemburg made him the first British winner of a professional European stage race.
