BAE Hawk
The BAE Hawk jet trainer was first delivered to the RAF in November 1976 – fifty years ago. Since then, the aircraft has been extensively used by the RAF (and Royal Navy), still seeing service with the Red Arrows Aerobatic Team and in the advance flying training role. The Hawk has been an export success for the UK aviation industry, with worldwide sales ranging from Finland to Australia, Canada to the Middle and Far East. A major success was selling the design to the US Navy. The final Hawks produced were delivered to Qatar in 2022. This was proof of the aircraft’s original excellent design in the 1970s by a team from Hawker Siddeley. One of their aims was to produce an aircraft that could be assembled by the purchasing country’s aviation industry. Over the years the Hawk evolved to meet customer needs resulting in the development of a number of versions. As well as the original two-seat trainer, a single-seat ground-attack version was also produced.Covering the Hawk’s design, evolution and worldwide use, this book contains a number of previously unseen illustrations and highly informative text.
The Piano Across Time
Originally ‘pianoforte’ (or sometimes fortepiano), but fairly swiftly becoming simply the piano, this fascinating instrument was invented nearly two centuries before the first motor car was manufactured. Just like the cars that followed Mr Benz’s first invention, the piano developed into an amazing machine with over 3,000 moving parts. Despite the digital world we now live in and people all too frequently being glued to screens and phones, the piano – whether in the private home, studio or concert hall – is still here and adored by millions. Largely made from bits of wood, wire, felt, metal and plastic, in the right hands this much-loved instrument can enchant its listeners and move people to both tears and wonderful exhilaration. The piano has proved to be a remarkable survivor, and this book explores its beauty, significance and enduring legacy.
Land Rover Discovery 3 & 4
Ever since its first launch in 1989, the Land Rover Discovery has stood for robust durability and practicality both off and on-road. When the Discovery 3 was launched in 2004, it represented a step-change from the earlier models, with much higher levels of equipment and a higher degree of luxury as well. The Discovery 4 continued the same theme, with additional improvements and refinements. In this book, Rover expert james Taylor examines the background and development of the L319 platform, common to both models, and the different types within each range. The book also covers the G4 Challenge vehicles and special editions, including the emergency vehicles and armoured derivatives. It also covers the US models, known as the LR3 and LR4.Including a wide range of colour photographs, this is an essential expert guide to two Discovery models that are widely regarded as some of the best SUVs in the world.
Therapy Dogs in Schools
Therapy Dogs in Schools: An Evidence-Based Protocol for Best Practice outlines the Professional Application of Therapy Dogs in Schools (PATS) protocol. The PATS protocol provides K–12 school professionals with a structured sequence for planning, implementing, and evaluating a school-based therapy dog program that ensures community safety, attends to animal welfare, and maximizes program impact. Therapy dog program goals include improved emotional, behavioral, and academic outcomes and promoting a positive school culture. Leading researchers in the field of animal-assisted interventions and services cite the critical need for this type of protocol, especially as the number of dogs in schools has risen dramatically in the last decade. The PATS protocol is the first evidence-based guide to provide administrators, staff, and therapy dog handlers with tools to plan, implement, and evaluate a school-based therapy dog program. Currently, there are no laws governing the incorporation of therapy dogs in schools. The PATS protocol has the potential to increase the professionalism of therapy dog program implementation by addressing school safety, ensuring canine welfare, and maximizing program outcomes. This book is for school professionals and volunteers alike, to identify how to maintain a therapy dog program and how to support the school community when it is time to retire a therapy dog.
Churches of Lincolnshire
Lincolnshire is a large county that historically has been relatively unexplored. Yet its legacy of historic churches is as rich as any county in England. Mediaeval Lincolnshire owed its wealth – and churches - to maritime trade and wool production and the influence of a myriad of monasteries and its cathedral. However, changing economic conditions have also seen depopulation and remote churches remind us of communities which didn’t survive. As populations moved to towns and manufacturing centres during the Industrial Revolution, new churches were built and all these changes are represented in the parish churches of the Lincolnshire, which range from large Saxon structures at Barton upon Humber, tiny Norman churches like Coates by Stow, through grand wool churches at Swineshead and Gedney to a Georgian gem at Oxcombe. All these are among the selection of characteristic Lincolnshire church buildings from across the county that are described and illustrated in this book.This fascinating picture of an important part of the history of Lincolnshire over the centuries will be of interest to all those who live in or are visiting this attractive county in England.
Secret Barnet and Hadley
The town of Barnet grew up in the 12th century to the north of London. The town’s alternative nameS of Chipping Barnet or High Barnet are recognition of the market that was established there at the same time and the town’s elevation. Today the town and the integral area of Hadley adjoining Barnet are part of Greater London. This was the site of the Battle of Barnet in 1471, which was one of the key battles of the Wars of the Roses. Barnet’s position along the old Great North Road brought a large number of inns to cater for travellers, including Ye Olde Mitre Inn which was first recorded in 1553 and still stands today. Evidence of the lives of everyday folk through the centuries can still be discovered beneath the surface of today’s Barnet and Hadley, from numerous blue plaques for the rich and famous to workhouses, hospitals and alms-houses.With tales of remarkable characters, unusual events and tucked away or disappeared historical buildings and locations, Secret Barnet and Hadley will appeal to all those with an interest in the history of this distinct area of North London.
Kent's Pilgrim Routes
Thanks to Chaucer and his Canterbury Tales, the path along the North Downs to Thomas Becket’s shrine in Canterbury Cathedral is the most famous pilgrim route in the world. Yet there is another Canterbury pilgrim path that is 600 years older - the Augustine Camino that runs from Rochester via Canterbury to Ramsgate. It venerates St Augustine, who brought Christianity to Kent in 597AD, and takes in the place he landed as well as the two cities where he built cathedrals. In recent years St Augustine’s central place in England’s religious and cultural history has been marked formally by a new shrine dedicated in 2012 to him in St Augustine’s church in Ramsgate. Another pilgrim path is recently re-discovered Old Way, which runs to Canterbury from the south and takes in the lovely pilgrim churches of the Romney Marsh. In this book Andy Bull, who has been researching Britain’s pilgrim paths for many years explores these and many other pilgrim routes in Kent and the historic places and people associated with them.Kent''s Pilgrim Routes: A History of Paths, Places and People will appeal to all those who enjoy walking and exploring Britain’s heritage. Through this book readers and walkers today can explore the full breadth of Kent’s rich pilgrim history and the fascinating history to be discovered en route.

Ilaria
One afternoon in May, 8-year-old Ilaria gets into the car with her father, expecting to go out to dinner with her mother and sister. Instead, she is taken across the border, on a whirlwind road trip around Italy with her father, from Trieste to Rome and Sicily, sleeping in roadside hotels and singing to the radio. But Ilaria's father is unpredictable, and she never knows which version of him she will get: charming and funny, or volatile and drunk. Torn between her life in Geneva with her mother and this strange shifting adventure on the road, Ilaria doesn't know who to side with in her parents' acrimonious separation. Throughout her travels, Ilaria meets a rag-tag cast of characters, learns how to light a cigarette, discovers when is best to keep quiet around her father, and finds comfort in her lovable teddy bear Birillo. Ilaria's voice is singular and powerful. Based on the author's own experience, this deeply moving novel captures the blurred lines between love and harm, memory and reality, fear and wonder. Ilaria is a haunting, intimate coming of age story about a girl who is forced to grow up too soon, and about the fragile moments of beauty she finds along the way.
