The Age of Shakespeare
'The greatest literary scholar of his generation' (Independent) explains how the history of the Elizabethan era is the backdrop to William Shakespeare and his plays.
Shakespeare made his unique contribution to British and world culture in the midst of Elizabeth's great reign.
Here, the circumstances of each play's composition are acutely described, and set within a masterful portrait of Shakespeare's England - its early capitalism, its court, its bursting population, and its epidemics, as well as its arts - including, of course, its theatre.
An important, lasting, and concise companion to Shakespeare's time.
The Tree of Life
A gripping tale of the planet Mars and the terrible monstrosity that called its victims to it from afar—a tale of Northwest Smith.

The Lonesome Trail and Other Stories
A man is very much like a horse. Once thoroughly frightened by something he meets on the road he will invariably shy at the same place afterwards until a wisely firm master leads him perforce to the spot and proves beyond all doubt that the danger is of his own imagining; after which he will throw up his head and deny that he ever was afraid and be quite amusingly sincere in the denial.

The Earl and the Pharaoh
Enter a world of ancient secrets, old money, new ambitions and the discovery of priceless treasure in this revelatory new biography.
Between November 1922 and spring 1923, a door to the ancient Egyptian world was opened. The discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun would be the most astonishing archaeological find of the century, revealing not only the boy pharaoh's preserved remains, but thousands of finely crafted objects, from the iconic gold mask and coffins to a dagger made from meteorite, chalices, beautiful furniture and even 3000-year-old food and wine. The world's understanding of Ancient Egyptian civilisation was immeasurably enhanced, and the quantity and richness of the objects in the tomb is still being studied today. Two men were ultimately responsible for the discovery: Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter. It was Lord Carnarvon who held the concession to excavate and whose passion and ability to finance the project allowed the eventual discovery to take place.
The Earl and the Pharaoh tells the story of the 5th Earl of Carnarvon. Carnarvon's life, money and sudden death became front-page news throughout the world following the discovery of the tomb, fuelling rumours that persist today of 'the curse of the pharaohs'. His beloved home, Highclere Castle, is today best-known as the set of Downton Abbey.
Drawing on Highclere Castle's never-before-plumbed archives, bestselling author Fiona, the Countess of Carnarvon, charts the twists of luck and tragedies that shaped Carnarvon's life; his restless and enquiring mind that drove him to travel to escape conventional society life in Edwardian Britain.

A Coney Island of the Mind
The title of this book is taken from Henry Miller's "Into the Night Life" and expresses the way Lawrence Ferlinghetti felt about these poems when he wrote them during a short period in the 1950's-as if they were, taken together, a kind of Coney Island of the mind, a kind of circus of the soul.
The Stretton Street Affair
Mr. Le Queux breaks all records for speed and thrills. And he tells you, too, about orosin, that newly discovered poison, a drop of which, on cigar or cigarette, renders the smoker unconscious. A gripping detective and mystery story. Every page presents a baffling situation, and all lead to the most unusual climax of the times.

Rolling Stones, The - Sticky Fingers Live ... DVD
Kultovní Rolling Stones vydávají další záznam koncertu ze série From The Vault!
Nesmrtelná rocková legenda šedesátých let vydává 29. září pátý záznam ze série v minulosti nahrávaných koncertů From The Vault – Sticky Fingers: Live At The Fonda Theatre 2015, kde opět dokazují, že ještě rozhodně nepatří, a dlouho patřit nebudou, do starého železa. Záznam nabízí především klasické hity, jako je například Brown Sugar, Wild Horses, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Dead Flowers a mnoho dalších.
Nejnovější záznam zachycuje unikátní vystoupení, které se odehrálo 20. května 2015 v kalifornském Fonda Theatre, a kde Rolling Stones poprvé a zatím naposledy zahráli na počest vydání jeho reedice album Sticky Fingers od začátku do konce. Show otevírala turné kapely po Severní Americe nazvané Zip Code Tour, které v součtu trvalo dva měsíce. Intimní lazení divadelního prostředí Fonda Theatre kontrastovalo s pompézní atmosférou obřích stadionů naplněných fanoušky, které Rolling Stones nadále na trase šňůry čekali. Vystoupení se tak stalo nezapomenutelným pro ty, kterým se podařilo ulovit lístky, které byly z pochopitelných důvodů ve velmi omezeném počtu.
Set vyjma nezkráceného záznamu samotného představení obsahuje rozhovory s jednotlivými členy kapely, a jako bonus skladby, které jsou vyjmuty z koncertních filmů All Down The Line, When The Whip Comes Down a I Can’t Turn You Loose.
Rolling Stones jsou kapelou, která je od svého počátku v roce 1962, kdy byli protipólem svatouškovských Beatles, nedomyslitelným pilířem rockové hudby. O tom vypovídá i jejich zařazení do žebříčku padesáti nesmrtlených interpretů rock’n’rollu časopisu Rolling Stone, kde se umístili na 4. místě, dvojnásobný zisk Grammy za celoživotní dílo a uvedení do Rock’n’rollové síně slávy. Tvrdé jádro kapely tvoří na rytíře pasovaný zpěvák Mick Jagger a kytarový mág s životním příběhem rebela Keith Richards.
Tracklist:
1. Start Me Up
2. Sway
3. Dead Flowers
4. Wild Horses
5. Sister Morphine
6. You Gotta Move
7. Bitch
8. Can't You Hear Me Knocking

Chip, of the Flying U
All of the boys at the Flying U grumbled -- among themselves -- when they heard that the Old Man's sister was coming to spend the summer. They didn't want a woman at the ranch, and certainly not one who had just received a medical degree! But if they'd had an inkling of what was really going to happen, they would have done more than grumble...

The Rise of Islamic State
The essential "on the ground" report on the fastest growing new threat in the Middle East
Born of the Iraqi and Syrian civil wars, the Islamic State astonished the world in 2014 by creating a powerful new force in the Middle East. By combining religious fanaticism and military prowess, the new self-declared caliphate poses a threat to the political status quo of the whole region.
In The Rise of Islamic State, Patrick Cockburn describes the conflicts behind a dramatic unraveling of US foreign policy. He shows how the West created the conditions for ISIS's explosive success by stoking the war in Syria. The West-the US and NATO in particular-underestimated the militants' potential until it was too late and failed to act against jihadi sponsors in Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan.
Eight Strokes of the Clock
These adventures were told to me in the old days by Arsene Lupin, as though they had happened to a friend of his, named Prince Rénine. As for me, considering the way in which they were conducted, the actions, the behaviour and the very character of the hero, I find it very difficult not to identify the two friends as one and the same person. Arsene Lupin is gifted with a powerful imagination and is quite capable of attributing to himself adventures which are not his at all and of disowning those which are really his. The reader will judge for himself.
