Brilliant biography, up there with the Agassi and Miles Davis ones insofar as they give you a fresh, invigorating take on the 'way' of approaching such a thing. Stone writes brilliantly and the book is alive on the page, taking you unflinchingly throu ...more |

There's nothing better than reading about a horrendous survival ordeal and fierce, scary seas while you're lying in bed, safe and warm. Island of the Lost is a book to sink into, a world of the past which is, in every way, prescient to today. Paralle ...more |

| An entertaining widescreen walk through post-war British military history, taking in SAS operations in south east Asia, Oman and closer to home, in London. There's also a great take on the Gulf War, from the inside, as it were, and the Falklands Conf ...more | |

Absolutely loved this book - and I'm an Everton fan! Growing up near Liverpool - being an Everton supporter and going to Goodison - Paisley always fascinated me. He was the man responsible for Liverpool's dominance - which, the odd derby match aside - ...more |

| This is a fairly shockingly poor autobiography from someone who, being bookish, well-read and urbane, should have known better. Rather than tell what might have been an interesting story - of his own life - Davies chooses a godawful way of organising ...more | |
