Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Valegro is nothing short of a worldwide phenomenon: a horse who has taken the sporting world by storm. In an unprecedented career, he has gone from rejection to concurrent Olympic, World and European Gold and a World No 1 ranking - leaving a trail of broken World records in his wake. From gangly youngster to 'the best the world has ever seen', this is the heart-warming story of the horse that revolutionized a centuries-old sport and won the hearts of equestrian and sports fans everywhere. Voted the Nation's favourite horse, he has achieved international fame and admiration and has a character and intelligence that the public clearly adores. This modern-day Black Beauty story is told by his owner and trainer, Carl Hester, who had the vision to bring together the potential of a young rider - Charlotte Dujardin - with a horse whose outstanding ability has proved that dreams can still come true. With honesty, humour and contributions from leading lights across the equestrian world, this book is an inspiring and indispensable must-have for equestriennes, sports fans and anybody interested in achieving success against the odds.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Edited by Peter Pagnamenta, one of Britain's most distinguished documentary producers, this lavishly illustrated, beautifully designed and produced hardback volume traces the University's growth and development from its small beginnings to today's eminence and tomorrow's aspirations. Cambridge is one of the world's great universities, providing education, scholarship and research at the very highest level.

The Times Literary Supplement, 16 December 2009 "Chock-full of images and bursting with contributions from a veritable Who's Who of twentieth-century Cambridge alumni, Pagnamenta's book is entertaining, informative, and up-to-date.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. The story of the seven regiments which compose the Household Division, commonly referred to as the Guards, has been often told, individually and jointly. To the world at large, the image of the Guards has been coloured by their ceremonial duties as the regiments dedicated to the protection of the sovereign - whether on duty at Buckingham Palace and Horse Guards, or at great national occasions such as The Queen's Birthday Parade, which the public know as the Trooping of the Colour. Yet in the 21st century the Guards have never been more active and engaged in their role as highly effective operational military units, whether in Bosnia, Iraq or, more recently, Afghanistan. Excellence in Action is a new, richly-illustrated publication which offers a true, wide-ranging colour portrait of the Household Division which reflects the tradition of excellence of the individual formations in the context of today's role as an elite fighting force. "Excellence in Action has been edited, designed and illustrated with all the panache and professionalism of the regiments themselves" - Soldier Magazine, June 2008 "Excellence in Action is as good as its word .This is an analysis of a unique institution, which is both interesting and skilfully written . .Excellence in Action - but also excellence in production." - Maj-Gen Sir Evelyn Webb Carter, Country Life, June 2008 "Excellence in Action is a splendid, extraordinarily successful book, a real triumph, and cannot be recommended too highly." - Guards Magazine, Summer 2008.

In 1921, Duncan Phillips opened his home to the public, creating the first museum of modern art in the U.S. in Washington, D.C. Today, the Phillips Collection remains a monument to one man's unique vision and foresight with its carefully selected collection of work where visitors could see "beautifully as true artists see." This book accompanied a 2002 traveling exhibition by the same title to six U.S. museums. It features over sixty of the most important works by European artists in the Phillips Collection, including Cezanne, Renoir, Klee, Picasso, Van Gogh, and Modigliani. An essay on Duncan Phillips, the collector by Eliza Rathbone, the Collections curator and narratives accompanying the full color illustrations of the exhibition by Johanna Halford-MacLeod. Also an exhibition checklist, a chronology and a list of references. First Edition, First Printing. About 8 1/4 x 10 inches, 160 pages including index, in heavy card pictorial covers. The full- color front cover illustration is Van Gogh's "Entrance to the Public Garden in Arles" (1888, detail) and the back cover illustration is Klee's "Cathedral" (1924) shown against a deep blue background. The same illustrations are repeated on the heavy paper dustjacket, the front flap containing information about the museum and the exhibition and the back flap listing other exhibition catalogues available from the publisher. Top half-inch of inside covers and first and last pages of text show very light foxing as does the top edge of the text. O/w covers and text are free of any significant flaws, clean, unmarked and complete. The dustjacket shows only very light, very minor rubbing, no tears, no creasing or bumping.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. This title is now sold out. Trinity Hall is one of the oldest of the Cambridge colleges, founded over 650 years ago. It is also one of the smallest and most beautiful, situated alongside the river Cam. Henry James described its garden as 'the prettiest corner of the world'. The Hidden HallaEprovides an insight into what makes Trinity Hall such a special and unique community.aEThis richly illustrated coffee-table book reveals the varied and manifold contributions that past and present students and Fellows have made to the wider world and the Hall itself. Including intimate recollections of controversial Masters, outstanding Fellows, and exceptional, as well as, notorious undergraduates. Sometimes acerbic, often funny, these accounts document the shift of the Hall from a 'law college' to one that now produces eminent scientists, engineers, linguists, politicians, poets, actors and broadcasters. Some of the luminaries of the past are here, including Robert Herrick, Leslie Stephen and J.B. Priestly. More recent alumni include former Chancellor and Foreign Secretary, Geoffrey Howe, test cricketer and Anglican bishop, David Sheppard, broadcaster, Mark Tully, theatre director, Nicholas Hytner and actress Rachel Weisz.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. 'The College is like its Old Court: discreet, unobtrusive, yet at the very pinnacle of excellence', writes a former member of the College. Another member remarked: 'My two years are still a vivid splash of sunlight in my memory, after the darkness of school, before the drab routines of my nomadic existence in the army'. This would seem to be a true description of the experience of many at Corpus Christi, one of Cambridge's smallest, yet most distinctive colleges. Other former members however had slightly different memories. One remarked: 'I was a reluctant undergraduate. Coming to Cambridge seemed like returning to school and I resented the rules and the quiet complacency of the place. As I sought my rooms, a well-meaning don remarked, Oh! You will be in Marlowe's room, to which I replied that I was expecting a room to myself. How was I to know he was referring to Christopher Marlowe, the poet who died in 1953? This highly illustrated book, which is published to coincide with the College's 650th anniversary, includes memories, images and reminiscences of everyday life in Corpus Christi from the 1920s to the 1950s and also from more recent times. Edited by Betty Bury and Liz Winter. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
