Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Where are we going to eat tonight? What's the best place for a drink? Where do locals buy their fruit and vegetables? Where are the best delicatessens? All tourists who love good food have asked themselves these questions when visiting a city or country. Many travel guides suggest some food addresses but these are generally very few, unoriginal and, most of the time, crowded with other tourists. This new series, on the other hand, promises the opposite: each title will bring you the heart of gastronomy of the selected destination. Starred restaurants, bistros, canteens, street food, Asian cuisine, chic picnics: in Eat London the best of London is lying on a silver platter just for you! In addition, you'll find addresses to the best delicatessens, the best wine bars, the best cookery equipment stores or specialised gastronomy bookstores of each city. Contents: Stores and General Food; Markets; Tea Time; Bakeries and Pastry Shops; Breakfast; Pubs and Drinks; On the Go; Restaurants. 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. Condición: Very Good. To look at Oliver Hellowell's photography is to see the natural world through his eyes. - Boudicca Fox-Leonard, The Telegraph In Ollie's hands [.] the camera is more than a mere instrument; it is an extension of his inquisitive mind. - Iolo Williams From flower-filled forests to ancient castles and isolated lochs, from the concrete jungle to the play of sunlight across the sea, the latest book from award-winning young photographer Oliver Hellowell captures Britain at its most beautiful. The British landscape is renowned for its infinite moods. Oliver's photography celebrates this, capturing rain-jewelled flowers and haunting, mist-shrouded ruins. Perhaps the most charming aspect of his work is his ability to highlight overlooked beauty. To some, the dandelion is nothing but a weed - but Oliver finds a worthwhile subject in even the humblest wildflower. Insightful commentary reveals the inspiration behind each of Oliver's pictures. An ode to the British Isles from a passionate young photographer, every page demonstrates the enthusiasm and talent that endeared Oliver to his worldwide following. Also available: Oliver's Birds ISBN 9781788840101. 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. Condición: Very Good. Simon Drew's idiosyncratic views of the human and animal kingdoms have already been the exclusive subject of some twelve books. His words and pictures have also been indelibly imprinted on numerous variegated articles of clothing, greeting cards, mugs, umbrellas and framed prints. There are those who might be tempted to think 'Enough is enough', but there are many more who would vociferously disagree. It is in response to the remorseless clamoring of the latter that Simon Drew now serves up a veritable cornucopia of visual and verbal humor culled from his extensive oeuvre. For committed enthusiasts this is a gourmet feast of bizarre humor to savor and enjoy. The menu includes such favorites as Prawn to be Wild as a starter, a main course of Cod Moving in a Mysterious Way with Last Mango in Paris to round off. For newcomers it is a unique opportunity to plunge head first into a brave new comic world where Cleanliness is Next to Dogliness, the show is The Bantam of the Opera and the password is Trust me I m a Ducktor. 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. Condición: Very Good. Winter brings a somber note to the garden. After it, we look to spring to lighten up the vista. The plant, beyond all plants, that does this best is the montana clematis. Huge sweeps of colour, involving thousands of small flowers, climb into trees, cover walls and embellish shrubs. No one montana clematis flowers for long, but a sequence of montanas can flower from April to September. Colour catches the eye first, but as you approach, many of the montanas give an overwhelming fragrance. This particular group of clematis is vigorous, easy to plant and easy to grow. Montanas are free from stem rot (clematis wilt), and pruning is easy. As a bonus, in the autumn, some montanas produce attractive seed heads. The longevity of this clematis is such that it can be considered a friend for life. Written by acknowledged clematis expert John Howells, this book is a book for gardeners. The gardener needs to know the general features of this group of clematis. They will find them here. They need to know which montanas are available on the market, their strong and weak points, and which is best for each gardener's purpose. They will find that information here. The gardener needs to know how to cultivate this group of plants and how best to display them. That information is also here. Every plant has a history and the history of the montana is particularly fascinating and is given full coverage in this book. Every garden needs a montana and as this book demonstrates, there is a montana for every garden. 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. Condición: Very Good. For the past thrity years this chunky, fact-filled book has established itself as the bible of antique collectors and dealers, the indispensable source of addresses, telephone numbers, maps, and specialty indexes. Well-thumbed copies are to be found in car glove compartments and on the reference shelves of antiques enthusiasts and professionals both in this country and abroad. We are delighted that The Daily Telegraph has given recognition to the Guide's importance and established position in the marketplace by having its name associated with the title for a third year. A new edition is issued each year. By its very nature the antiques trade is in a state of constant change: new shops open, old ones close, and dealers move. Every year there are changes to over half the 7,000 establishments listed and as many as 1,000 dealers open or close. Because the Guide has been produced by the same long-standing and dedicated team of editors and researchers, it is uniquely placed for accuracy. As a saver of time and wasted journeys the up-to-date edition is equally essential. 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. Condición: Very Good. In this volume, John Howells attempts to bring clarity to a confusing subject. Gardeners are bewildered with the choice of over 1000 clematis in the "Plantfinder". How can the gardener know the characteristics, growing requirements, attractions, faults and flowering time of so many? Some years ago the author devised a straighforward classification of clematis by dividing them into 12 groups, a system which is now universally followed. The main part of the book considers all 12 groups in order of flowering . Each group has an unmistakable description and unambiguous illustrations. A number of easy to grow clematis in each group are described and illustrated. Understandable but brief descriptions are given for the cultivation of each group. A knowledge of just 12 clematis, one from each group, gives the key to knowing all 1000. With this key the gardener can quickly choose what appeals and what suits the chosen planting area. There is also guidance on how to buy clematis and how to develop a clematis collection. Lists of the best clematis are provided. 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. Condición: Very Good. Maryniak, Tom Ilustrador. Walk into any bar, in almost any part of the world, and there, on the back shelf you're likely to see Baijiu, Cognac, Vodka, Scottish and Irish Whisky, Shochu, Tequila, Bourbon, Rum, Gin, and Absinthe. These drinks helped shape our culture; inspired authors and painters, brought both anarchy and harmony and even, in some cases, induced mass hysteria. In Ten Drinks That Changed the World, bartender, poet and writer Seki Lynch tells the stories behind the spirits. Tracing the origins of each drink, he dissects the ingredients and locates the first makers, exploring how perceptions and consumption levels have ebbed and flowed through the centuries. Cocktail recipes, lists of artisan makers and insights from the great, good and notorious drinkers of history help complete the resume for each drink. London artist Tom Maryniak has created original illustrations of each drink for the book. 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. Condición: Very Good. A new title in the Design series and an excellent introduction to the life and work of this versatile Russian artist. Alexander Mikhailovich Rodchenko (1891-1953) was a central figure in the Russian Constructivist art movement; a radical activist, a pioneer of photomontage, a theorist, and a teacher. He was an active force in the organization of the first museums of modern art that arose in Russia in the first years after the Russian Revolution of 1917. Attending art school in 1914 in Kazan was to be a defining influence: that year Russian Futurists performed in the town, and Rodchenko saw their leading figures in action. It transformed his vision and he was still working with Futurist artists and their ideas twenty-five years later. And it was at art school where Rodchenko first met the artist Varvara Stepanova, with whom he collaborated extensively, and who would become his life-long partner. Central in the re-examination of art and its place in society after the Revolution, and in the search for a new culture without the class implications of the past, Rodchenko's radical approach proposed a new understanding of a constructed, rather than a tastefully composed, culture. This concise, comprehensive and informative work focuses largely on Rodchenko's graphic work in the form of book jackets, posters and advertising. The Design series is the winner of the Brand/Series Identity Category at the British Book Design and Production Awards 2009, judges said: "A series of books about design, they had to be good and these are. The branding is consistent, there is a good use of typography and the covers are superb."

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Gin'll FIx It is Simon's 28th book charting the progress of this artist, illustrator, verse-maker, punster, Reading football club supporter and gallery owner. This is a compilation of some of his recent work - wordplay and verse appear with detailed illustrations. The mood is humor, satire and curiosity about the world. Domestic animals, birds and beasts of the farmyard and the zoo, these are his favorite pictorial subjects - and they are only humanized by the virtue of the context in which Drew puts them. The creatures themselves are realistic: their situations are not. This contrast, along with rhymes and puns, creates the humor. A sense of the absurd permeates all his books and here are some fine examples of Drew playing with absurdities and contradictions. 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 on from the enormous success of Spot the Book Title, Simon Drew has turned his attention to authors. Spot the Author is packed full of mind boggling puzzles and nonsensical word games that are guaranteed to to goad your mind in to a series of highly complicated mental gymnastics.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Welcome back to the wonderful world of Simon Drew! A combination of artist and wordsmith, Simon combines these talents with an inventive and quirky sense of humour in his range of books, this being his twenty-fourth. A new perspective unfolds: the familiar becomes unfamiliar, the known becomes unknown, the serious becomes humorous, reality becomes nonsense.This is the story, illustrated with Drew's instantly recognisable drawings, of how a detective-cum-spy of very special prowess (a.k.a. Rabbit the dog) tracks down his enemy. Extraordinary ingenuity and stealth assist him in his task of rooting out evil, pursuing it doggedly and resolving to rid the world of its blight. He is persistent. He is cunning. He is undaunted. He also appears rather sheepish.Even more original, if possible, than all of his previous titles, "Shepherd Spy" contains a humorous narrative unfolding over each double-page spread. What is more, within the text is a competition, the prizes for which are signed original drawings from the book, being offered to the first few readers who discover the place-name concealed in the story. If all this weren't enough there are also 'hidden animals' secreted in each image, whose names can be found in the text alongside. How many things can you get into one book?

Paperback. Condición: Good. The artist, Andras Kaldor, was introduced to opera as a child by his parents who held season tickets to the Budapest Opera. Although he trained as an architect, his love of the opera has proved the stronger influence and he has spent the last 12 years painting all the major opera houses in Europe. The facade of each opera house is illustrated without the distractions of surrounding buildings and street scenes. Each opera house, which has been personally visited by the artist, is first drawn in pen and ink in an architectural manner. In addition to the facades, Andras Kaldor has also added many detailed drawings of particular aspects of both the exteriors and interiors of the buildings. The text accompanying the pictures is written, by notable persons who have a personal association with the individual opera houses. Background details of the history, architecture, composers, operas and singers are given, where appropriate, there are personal anecdotes. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. As the world speeds up, as technology takes over, it is worth remembering how we used to live. This three-book series is a nostalgic hymn to an era when life was slower: a meandering ramble through the British countryside by bicycle, automobile and train. Take an amble across the countryside with this book, which celebrates a time when our railway network was more than a permanently delayed omnishambles of overcrowded and overpriced trains. Country stations and lonely halts, milk churns and coal yards, enamelled signs and platform clocks - these are the fragments of a more leisured age, from a time when the local station was a well-loved institution at the heart of so many communities. Here are gas-lit rural stations, oil lamps on level crossing gates, enamelled signs, waiting room fires, timetables and luggage labels. Less a clattering, steamy ride into the past than a touchstone for joyous memories of such a vital and well-loved institution, The Slow Train harks back to a more measured, considered era. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
