Walking Europe's Last Wilderness
An evocative voyage through the Carpathian mountain range and its threatened landscape, peoples, and history
The Carpathian Mountains of Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and Ukraine are Europe's last true wilderness. A landscape of great spruce and beech forests, grass meadows, and ancient villages, its people contend daily with the elements-as well as Europe's last large carnivores. But this fragile ecosystem is now under threat, from climate change and illegal logging.
Journeying from the banks of the Danube to Transylvania, Nick Thorpe guides us through the history and ecology of the watershed of Europe, between the Black Sea and the Baltic. For a thousand years the Carpathians have been a place of refuge, of identity and belonging, where powerful rulers and dynasties fought to gain control over rich gold seams and the unruly inhabitants of strategic valleys. Today, its inhabitants struggle to protect its vast forest habitat from urban sprawl as well as logging.
Drawing on interviews with shepherds, foresters and loggers, and his four decades of experience in the region, Thorpe sheds light on a neglected part of Europe-where bears, wolves, chamois, and lynxes still roam.

EVA Gore-Booth: Irish Radical Poet, Rebel and Reformer
An acclaimed biography of poet, pacifist and political firebrand Eva Gore-Booth. The Irish poet and activist Eva Gore-Booth (1870–1926) led a life defiantly at odds with her aristocratic origins. Choosing to live and work among the poor of Manchester, she campaigned on behalf of barmaids, circus performers, flower sellers and pit-brow lasses, her partner, Esther Roper, at her side. Gore-Booth was tireless in her pursuit of justice. She was a militant pacifist during the First World War, a champion of Irish independence and a pioneering thinker on gender and sexuality. She was also a prolific author, publishing nineteen volumes of poetry and prose that reflect the full force of her radical convictions. Featuring a new preface that situates Gore-Booth’s life and work in the context of our current political climate, this biography reclaims her place as a significant figure of Anglo–Irish letters and an unsung hero of LGBT+ history. -- .

Sixty Years of Hurt
Sir Geoff Hurst is the sole surviving player from England’s 1966 World Cup-winning side, but the importance of the victory still has a hold on the national mood, for matters both on and off the pitch. With the 2026 World Cup on its way, where is the nation now? This book ties the performance of the England men’s football team with its people and politics, from 1966 to 2026, through undulating fortunes, including triumphs and disasters. It offers a novel take on one of the nation’s most culturally important and enduring stories – the attempt to regain the FIFA World Cup – by placing it in the context of the way the country was governed. It is a story as much about Callaghan and Cameron as Beckham and Kane. How similar or different have the status and performance of the men’s team been to that of the incumbent government? Is there ever a direct crossover between dressing room and cabinet room? Are the footballers, wearing a red or white shirt in the summer months, reflecting the nation or opposing it? Sixty Years of Hurt is a story of football and politics, and how the two worlds intersect.
When Asia Welcomed The World
When Asia Welcomed the World tells the story of the 2002 World Cup, a tournament that will be remembered for many reasons, from heart-warming stories to dark accusations. The book resurrects the great characters that lit up 2002's biggest footballing stage, including Ronaldo, Oliver Kahn, David Beckham and Rü?tü Reçber, as well as humbling defeats for the game's giants at the hands of comparative minnows. It also explores the tournament's controversies and issues that arose before it had even begun. This was Asia's first ever World Cup, with South Korea and Japan also acting as the continent's first ever co-hosts. The tournament's legacy has proved to be a divisive one, but it has remained ingrained in football's collective memory for 20 years and will continue to do so.

England's Nadir?
England’s Nadir? is a revealing reassessment of a highly controversial period in the history of the England football team – the three seasons from 1974 to 1977 when Don Revie was at the helm. This has long been considered the worst period in 160 years of the national team. England’s Nadir? places these three years in a broader social context and a longer historical framework, exploring many factors that have previously been overlooked. These include the dominating voices of a small number of the 52 men who played for England under Revie and the endless criticism of Revie’s match preparation through his infamous dossiers. In addition, there was the control of Revie’s work by powerful individuals at the FA and FL, the effect of stress on football managers in the 1970s and the impact of serious injuries to key players. The book examines all 29 matches for which Revie was in charge and all 52 players who appeared for England in that time. There are sections on Revie’s early life, playing career, his successful and controversial period as Leeds United manager and his dramatic resignation from the England post in summer 1977. England’s Nadir? is a must-read for all England fans and anyone interested in 1970s football.

Blood on the Crossbar
Blood on the Crossbar: The Dictatorship's World Cup is the story of the most controversial football World Cup of all time. When Argentina both hosted and won the World Cup in 1978, just two years after the coup d'etat that ousted Isabel Perón, it was against the backdrop of a brutal military dictatorship in the country. Under the leadership of General Jorge Videla, up to 30,000 citizens, categorised as subversives, 'disappeared'. Dogged by allegations of bribery, coercion and an historic failed drugs test, this is the story of Argentina's maiden World Cup triumph and the controversy that simmered behind it. This isn't exclusively a tale of footballers and generals, and the risks they took to succeed. It's a story of the people: Argentinean exiles, Parisian students, brave journalists, the marching mothers of Plaza de Mayo and their missing children - and Dutch stand-up comedians who led international boycotts from thousands of miles away.
Studies in the History of the Renaissance
''art comes to you professing frankly to give nothing but the highest quality to your moments as they pass, and simply for those moments'' sake''In Studies in the History of the Renaissance (1873), a diffident Oxford don produced an audacious and incalculably influential defence of aestheticism. Through his highly idiosyncratic readings of some of the finest paintings, sculptures, and poems of the French and Italian Renaissance, Pater redefined the practice of criticism as an impressionistic, almost erotic exploration of the critic''s aesthetic responses. At the same time, reclaiming the Hellenism that he saw as the most characteristic aspect of the Renaissance, he implicitly celebrated homoerotic friendship.Pater''s infamous ''Conclusion'', which forever linked him with the decadent movement, scandalized many with its insistence on making pleasure the sole motive of life, even as it charmed fellow aesthetes such as Oscar Wilde. This edition of Studies reproduces the text of the first edition, recapturing its initial impact, and the Introduction celebrates its doomed attempt to stand out against the processes of industrialization. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
