Michelangelo and Titian
From the acclaimed author of Michelangelo, God’s Architect, a dual biography of two towering artists of the Renaissance, whose decades-long rivalry spurred both to greater heightsIn 1529, Michelangelo was in Venice when he first met Titian, Venice’s famed painter of princes, gods, and goddesses. Coming face-to-face with Titian’s drama-infused, richly colored works, the creator of David and the Sistine Chapel ceiling realized he had met a worthy opponent. Twenty-five years later, Titian came to Rome to paint the pope, and the two met again. Painting in the Vatican, Titian experienced the full power of Michelangelo’s work and vowed to surpass the achievements of his older contemporary. Michelangelo and Titian is the untold story of history’s greatest artistic rivalry, a competition between two monumental figures more admiring of one another than either would ever admit. William Wallace brings the world of the sixteenth century to life, and in particular its culture of gossip and intrigue. Wallace challenges the established narrative of this relationship as mostly one-sided, with the younger artist in competition with the reigning master. He shows how the artists moved in overlapping courtly and papal circles, sharing the patronage, power, and sometimes friendship of the most important people of their era, including members of the Medici, Este, and Farnese families. Wallace traces how, over the span of some forty years, this unspoken rivalry was reciprocal and mutually beneficial, with each learning from the other’s brilliance, quietly seeking to best the other’s work and secure his own legacy. An extraordinary achievement, Michelangelo and Titian is a compelling account of two supremely gifted rivals who inspired each other to test the limits of their creative genius, and in doing so created some of the most astonishing works of art the world has ever known.
Reluctant Abolitionists
Britain abolished the death penalty for murder in 1965, but many of Britain's last colonies retained capital murder laws until the 1990s. In this book, James M. Campbell presents the first history of the death sentences imposed under British colonial rule in the late twentieth century; the decision-making processes that determined if condemned prisoners lived or died; and the diverse paths to death penalty abolition across the empire. Based on a rich archive of recently released government records, as well as legislative debates, court papers, newspapers and autobiographies, Reluctant Abolitionists examines connections between the death penalty, British politics, decolonisation and the rise of international abolitionist movements. Through analysis of murder trials, clemency appeals, executions and legal reforms across more than 30 British colonies, it reveals the limits of British opposition to the death penalty and the enduring connections between capital punishment and empire.

Sage Talks
A collection of imaginative and insightful conversations with ancient deities, exploring the modern state of consciousnessThe modern world is rife with confusion, a lack of faith, and general disorder: Why do people seem so lost? Why is there such dissonance and apparent chaos across the globe? Why is our perception of time – and reality – seemingly changing? What is the nature of this growing struggle and divisions within the modern worl? age Talks considers, debates, and answers these questions in a series of poignant, inspired interviews with deities from Pagan religions. Kingsley Dennis follows a different theme in each of his interviews, resulting in varied, unexpected, enlightening, revealing and often humorous conversations with deities from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Hindu, and pagan figures. These include deities as Hecate, Eris, Horus, Aditi, Morpheus, Hermes, Ra, and many more. The book consists of twenty-five inspired conversations, each one based on a different topic such as the nature of chaos; the perception of time and reality; our disconnection from nature; our human struggle; and our need for healing, balance, and harmony. Accompanying each conversation is a reflection from the author, alongside a tale or story taken from ancient sources and placed into contemporary language and setting. For many of us, especially in today’s fast-paced, technologically driven, material world, there is no room for ‘conversation’, as inspired connection is expelled from human belief and acceptance. Sage Talks is a refreshing invitation to reconnect with the traditions of ancestors and bring the art of metaphysical conversation back into the contemporary world.
Jersey Jockeys and Guernsey Gallopers
As of 2025, there are 59 racecourses operating in Britain, from Perth in Scotland to Newton Abbot in Devon, and another 28 in Ireland. Almost all of them have had a book written about their history, as have many more historic, now defunct, tracks. However, there are two racecourses, both in British Crown Dependencies, which do not have a book dedicated to their history. This is a notably odd omission as the islands they are on have enjoyed properly organised racing for almost 200 years - both reportedly began the sport in 1832 - hosting leading jockeys, trainers, owners and runners over the decades. Graham Sharpe and John Henwood's comprehensive and engaging Jersey Jockeys and Guernsey Gallopers: A History of Channel Islands Horse-Racing corrects this ridiculous racing omission. It explores how the tracks in the two Channel Islands - currently Les Landes in Jersey and L'Ancresse in Guernsey - developed and flourished over the years, although the ongoing future of the latter is seriously under threat.
Flaxman Low
The weird and weirdly delightful adventures of fiction s first occult detective. Flaxman Low, literature s first professional, full-time 'occult detective,' i.e., an intrepid investigator who deploys the scientific method when tackling paranormal phenomena, appeared in a dozen stories first published from 1898 99. His creators, the mother-and-son team Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard and Kate O Brien Ryall Prichard (who published as 'E. and H. Heron'), endowed the Oxford-trained psychologist with the bravery and acumen to tackle every sort of adversary from ghosts, mummies, and vampires to a mushroom mannequin. Both less credulous and less cynical than earlier fictional investigators of the spirit world, Low always triumphs in the end but not before scientifically demonstrating that even the most outre incidents and situations can t hold a candle to the bizarre capacities of the human mind.
