Az Aranycsapat másképpen
Magyarország kétszer játszott döntőt foci-vb-n: 1938-ban és 1954-ben. A kettő között mindössze 16 év van, és mindkettő a magyar foci – nagyjából 1910 és 1966 között tartó – nagy korszakának kiemelkedő és szimbolikus eseménye. Bár a második döntő és maga az Aranycsapat kiemelt súllyal van jelen a magyar történelmi emlékezetben, hajlamosak vagyunk elszigetelten, önmagában nézni, pedig egy sokévtizedes folyamat eredményeként jött létre. Ez az olvasmányos, sok új és izgalmas részletet és összefüggést feltáró, gazdag fényképanyaggal illusztrált könyv ezen kíván változtatni.
A könyv végig kíséri az Aranycsapat kialakulását a magyar politikai és futballközegben, miközben érzékletesen mutatja be a világfutball folyamatait a hidegháborús viszonyok között. Részletes és plasztikus képet kapunk az Aranycsapat nagy meneteléséről: az 1952-es olimpiai aranyról (itt sikerült végre legyőzni a nagy mumust, az olaszokat, akik ellen elvesztettük az 1938-as vb-döntőt, és akiket az 1930-as években soha sem sikerült legyőznünk), az 1953-ról, az Aranycsapat legjobb évéről (beleértve az angolok elleni 6-3-at), és eddig soha nem látott részletességgel kísérhetjük végig magát az 1954-es vb-t. Külön erénye a könyvnek a döntőbeli ellenfél, a német csapat és az azt kitermelő német futballkultúra bemutatása. Részletesen foglalkozik a vb alatt a csapaton belül uralkodó viszonyokkal, a döntő eredményének fogadtatásával és következményeivel Magyarországon és Németországban, valamint azzal, hogyan látta a külvilág az Aranycsapatot.
A könyv – amellett hogy élvezetes és izgalmas olvasmány – segít abban, hogy a helyükre kerüljenek a sokszor hallott-látott dolgok, ezáltal összefüggéseiben, a valós történelmünk részeként kezdjük látni azt, amit olyannyira csodálunk.

The Cuckoo's Lea
A BBC WILDLIFE BEST BOOK OF 2025‘Magical … No journey in Britain will be quite the same again.’ The GuardianBirds have long inspired our emotional and imaginative connections to physical environments, but where did it all begi? idden in the names of English towns and villages, in copses, fields, lanes and hills, are the ghostly traces of birds conjuring powerful identities for people in ancient landscapes. What are their stories and secrets? How did people encounter birds over a thousand years ago? In The Cuckoo’s Lea, Michael J. Warren sets out on the trail of these ghosts. Captivated and guided by the secrets of place names, he finds their stories entangled with his own explorations of places through birds all across England. The past is hauntingly and movingly present on timeless marshes where curlews cry, where goshawks are breeding again for the first time in centuries, through silent cuckoo-woods lost under concrete sprawl, in the winter roosts of corvids and an owl village that vanished centuries ago. Weaving together early literature, history and ornithology, this book takes readers on a journey far into the past to contemplate the nature of place and to discover a fascinating heritage that matters deeply to us now when so many places and their birds are threatened or already gone.

Checkmate
‘Mezrich’s books are the sort of engrossing reads you pick up in the airport then find the blockbuster film on the plane’ – Evening StandardFrom the bestselling author of The Accidental Billionaires and Bringing Down the House comes this cinematic true story about the biggest scandal in modern chess. In September 2022, the chess world watched in disbelief as Magnus Carlsen, widely considered the greatest player in history, faced an unthinkable defeat against the nineteen-year-old American upstart, Hans Niemann. Within days, Carlsen accused Niemann of cheating – a bombshell allegation that rocked the chess world. As the scandal spiralled, Chess.com – the dominant force in online chess – launched a high-stakes investigation igniting a global media firestorm. But Checkmate is about more than a cheating scandal. It’s the story of a teenager willing to risk everything to rise to the top; a reclusive genius suddenly fighting to protect his legacy; and a centuries-old game transforming into a billion-dollar industry fuelled by streaming, sponsorships, and Silicon Valley power players. With exclusive access to the central figures, Ben Mezrich takes readers deep inside the weird, wild, and cutthroat world of competitive chess – where genius collides with ambition, and the wrong move could be your last. 'Fast-paced and compelling, Mezrich brings the black and white squares of the chess world into full technicolour. Even the non-chess players among us can't fail to be hooked by this remarkable story' – Katie Prescott, author of The Curious Case of Mike Lynch
For A Yellow Jersey
For a Yellow Jersey narrates the many remarkable lives of the women's Tour de France. A race which has, in its various incarnations, acted as a microcosm of the women's bike racing scene as a whole. Like the careers of many of its participants, the race itself represents an inspiring story of survival against the odds and in the harshest possible conditions. Paul Maunder tells this chequered story which dates back to 1955 and features false starts, media indifference and financial mismanagement. Above all, however, this is the story of the phenomenal athletes who have competed in these races. From Marianne Martin's surprise win in the 1984 event, to the intense rivalry of Jeannie Longo and Maria Canins in the late 1980s, to the modern-day Dutch dominance, there are as many dramatic tales in the women's race as the men's. We meet the key personalities who have made women's racing so entertaining over the past forty years. It's time to celebrate the history of the women's peloton. Women's racing has its own fascinating culture - tough, collaborative, political, maverick. Those who have campaigned for equality are driven, bloody-minded and above all, passionate about cycling. This is their story.
Gary Lineker
'Full of pace and style, just like its subject ... a vivid, nostalgic reminder of Lineker’s greatness as a player' - Leo McKinstry‘Chris Evans has done the hard yards on Lineker’s football career.. faithfully detailing the life of a hard-working footballer at the highest level’ – Roger Alton, The TimesENGLAND CAPTAIN. WORLD CUP HERO. SERIAL GOALSCORER. MATCH OF THE DAY HOST. FOOTBALL ICON. As player and pundit, Gary Lineker has been a prominent figure in English football for more than 40 years. He scored 48 goals in 80 games for England – coming within a penalty of being the country’s record goalscorer – and is the only player to have topped the goalscoring charts at three different clubs. He famously never received a red or yellow card, and hosted the BBC’s Match of the Day for 25 years. In recognition of his broadcast work, Lineker won the prestigious National Television Awards 'Best Presenter' prize in 2025. This enlightening biography – the first for 30 years – follows Lineker’s career, from his school days to his phenomenal goalscoring record and development as a media personality. Through meticulous research and interviews with teammates and opponents, coaches and commentators, journalist Chris Evans reveals the inside stories and backroom anecdotes from his early days at Leicester City; the big-money moves to Everton and Tottenham Hotspur; and the highs and lows of spells at Barcelona and Nagoya Grampus Eight in Japan. Gary Lineker always played with a smile on his face and an assassin’s touch in front of goal, while his charm and playful humour won over millions on TV. This biography provides a fascinating insight into one of English football’s most popular characters.

Swimmingly
WINNER OF THE SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 2026 – SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT BOOK OF THE YEAR'A hugely enjoyable love letter to swimming and open water adventures' – Sophie RaworthSports and Virgin Radio Breakfast Show presenter Vassos Alexander found solace and distraction swimming in the Thames during a difficult summer, and was bitten by the bug. Now he can't pass a body of water without wanting to jump in. Told through the story of training for a solo Channel swim, Swimmingly takes you on a journey across the world from Bournemouth Beach to San Francisco Bay. Vassos discovers that outdoor swimming is not about being the fastest or the best, it's about finding that little bit of magic in every stroke. Working with elite coaches and interviewing the great and the good of swimming, he uncovers the massive sense of community at the heart of this time-honoured pastime. He meets Olympic champions and Channel legends – including Diana Nyad, who in her 60s became the first person to swim between Cuba and Florida; Lewis Pugh, the UN Patron of the Oceans and Lynne Cox, a woman who went for a swim and saved the world. It's about the everyday swims, too – the tips shared and friendships forged over coffee and cake after a morning dip with the Teddington Bluetits or the sea swimmers of Whitstable. With the sport exploding in popularity over recent years, we all know someone (or are that someone!) who swims outside throughout the year. Swimmingly will leave you with a renewed sense of connection to the world, and perhaps even inspire you to dive into your nearest lake, river or sea with gleeful abandon.
Why Do Birds Sing?
Throughout our history birdsong has influenced art, poetry and music. It can elevate our mood and bring our backyards to life. We often hear birds singing as we go about our lives, but have you ever wondered who they are singing to and what they are singing abou? he term 'bird brain' has led us to underestimate the brainpower it takes to hear a song, remember it and practise until it is reproduced correctly. In the same way human infants learn to talk, young birds learn their song by listening and remembering the sounds produced by their parents. Not only that, birds use different songs and calls, and different pitch, tone and volume, depending on who they're communicating with and what they want to say-much like the way we vary our speech. Why Do Birds Sing? provides an insight into the world of bird communication that will surprise and delight you. It's an absorbing and informative book filled with answers to many of the common and often uncommon questions we ask about birdsong. After reading this book you will never listen to a bird song in the same way!
Super Natural
A NATURE BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE MAIL ON SUNDAY'Superb... A testament to just how beautiful and wonderful life on Earth is' Times Literary Supplement'Fascinating' Guardian'Brilliant' Daily MailFrom scorching deserts to frozen seabeds, from the highest peaks of the Himalaya to the hadal depths of the oceans, there are habitats on this Earth that appear inimical to life - yet in which it flourishes nevertheless. During the midday heat of the Sahara, silvery ants sprint from their nests to feed. In North American forests, wood frogs awaken each spring from solid blocks of ice. At the site of the Chernobyl disaster, fungi harness radiation to thrive. Transporting readers to far-flung environments we could never call home, Super Natural paints an awe-inspiring portrait of life's resilience and ingenuity under the harshest circumstances. We meet creatures exquisitely adapted to endure unimaginable deprivations: of water, oxygen, food, sunlight. Alex Riley shows how, at nature's extremes, the rules of life as we know them are rewritten - and how, here, we can find hope for the future of life on Earth, and beyond.
Climbing
Written by longtime climber Hil Malatino, Climbing explores the why of the sport, asking what pushes him and so many others to drag themselves to the gym and the crag time and again; to restructure their intimate lives around the pursuit of a new goal; and to devote thousands of hours forging their nerves to perform physical and mental feats while dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of feet off the ground. In chapters that explore gender, class, and sizeism in climbing culture, as well as grief, addiction, queer and trans-worldmaking, and the tensions between conservation and recreation, Climbing teases out how the art of navigating across rock can help us learn how to revel in being weird, vulnerable, and radically interdependent animals temporarily gifted the complicated tragicomedy of a body. It is a story of collective obsession and transformation that tracks how holding yourself on the wall helps you learn how to hold onto the ambiguities of life on earth.
British Railways Steam Locomotives 1948-68
When it was originally published,. Hugh Longworth''s definitive record of every steam locomotive operated by British Railways from nationalisation until the end of steam traction on the network in 1968, was very much welcomed, as it provided, for the first time in one place, a detailed and accurate source of reference on this important subject. With the book out of print for some time, a new and revised edition was overdue. However, the extent of the revisions, which included the book''s many photographs being given more space on the page, and the use of enlarged and enhanced locomotive drawings, greatly increased the size of the work. Rather than attempt to cut or dilute the content, it was decided that instead of publishing one unwieldy and expensive book, a more realistic approach was to present the work in two volumes of roughly similar size. The first of these dealing with the Great Western and LNER locomotives which became part of the BR stock in 1948, was published in 2025. This second volume covers Southern and LMS locos inherited in 1948 and the Standard classes introduced by BR. The entry for each class provides essential information including the size of the cylinders and driving wheels, boiler pressure, wight, the type of locomotive in a class, its place of construction and the date, withdrawl and scrapping dates are given as the details of any renumbering that may have occurred during the BR era. Heavily illustrated throughout, this book and its companion volume will be of great value to all interested in the steam era on British Railways. All classes that were on BR''s books in the years post 1948 are covered in the two volumes, and whilst the overwhelming majority of the locos featured are standing gauge, the few narrow gauge locomotives operated by BR are also included.
The Hidden Seasons
THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE HIDDEN CLUES AND SIGNS OF NATURE IN THE TURNING OF THE YEARThe perfect gift for dad this Father's Day!'A brilliant guide to the signs and wonders of the natural world . . . the author's alertness and expertise are impressive, and he makes a beguiling and inspiring guide . . . wonderful.' - DAILY MAIL'Gooley preaches attention to patterns in nature like a sommelier describing wine.' - NEW YORK TIMES'Another triumph from our unsurpassed expert on how to read the signs of nature. Indeed, his best book yet, which is saying something!' - John Lewis-Stempel, author of MEADOWLAND'A book to savour month by month as the seasons turn. Loved it!' - Lara Maiklem, author of MUDLARKING 'The Sherlock Holmes of Nature' - BBC Radio------When we know what to look for and what it means, seasonal moments that were once hidden shine brightly. In The Hidden Seasons, Tristan Gooley shows us how to read the clues that the sun, moon, stars, plants, fungi, animals, water and weather give us - but that we continually miss, because we don't know how and where to look. Autumn is a time for reading leaves, deciphering scents and investigating fungi. Spring is the time of wildflower signs, unique cloud shapes and curious animal behaviour. Summer is a time of coastal clues, astronomical extremes and secret grass patterns. And in winter, we learn to read snow, deepen our star knowledge and use rare methods to find clues in overlooked places, including indoors. As with Tristan Gooley's bestsellers The Walker's Guide, How to Read Water and How to Read a Tree, The Hidden Seasons inspires us to explore these signs for ourselves, giving us many rich insights into our turning year. Soon we will be able to anticipate and celebrate daily changes that few notice, however surprising they may be. And the seasons will never look, sound or smell the same again.

Madarak nagykönyve
Több mint tízezer madárfaj él a Földön - ez a könyv közülük a legkülönlegesebbeket mutatja be. Kontinensről kontinensre repít, a latin-amerikai esőerdőktől az afrikai szavannákig, miközben lenyűgöző illusztrációkkal és izgalmas történetekkel tárja fel a madarak világát. Nem határozó, hanem személyes utazás, egy grafikus-alkotó szenvedélyes válogatása: tisztelgés a szárnyas lények szépsége, sokszínűsége és kulturális jelentősége előtt. Egy csodás könyv mindazoknak, akik képesek csendben figyelni. Bolygónk ökológiai egyensúlyának kulcsszereplői, a madarak jelen vannak a tundra jeges csendjében, az amazóniai esőerdők párás félhomályában, az afrikai szavannák végtelen horizontján - és jelen vannak a történeteinkben is. Ez a gazdagon illusztrált kötet különleges módon mutatja be őket: Latin-Amerika színpompás tukánjai és quetzaljai, a Galápagos-szigetek különös endemikus fajai, Afrika ikonikus nektármadarai és gyurgyalagjai, a Falkland-szigetek pingvinjei vagy az amazóniai tangarafélék mind saját történettel és vizuális karakterrel jelennek meg. Egyszerre szól a tapasztalt madarászhoz és ahhoz, aki először emeli fel a fejét, hogy meghallgasson egy madárdalt.
Sports Knight
Sports Knight uncovers the life stories behind the nation’s sporting knights and dames, offering a compelling alternative history of British sport and society across the past century. Why were these sporting greats held up as national role models? And what does this say about our priorities and values? Inevitably, the book features more men than women, more rich than poor and more white people than black people. That, in itself, is revealing. For no matter what we think of the selection process (‘an utter crapshoot’ is the view of one national newspaper), the stories of the sporting heroes whom the government has chosen to honour with a title tell us much about the history of British sport and society. The six-time Olympic champion Chris Hoy once said, ‘To become a knight from riding a bike – it’s mad!’ And he’s right: it is mad. But, as Sports Knight shows, there is method in the madness.
