Architect Lee Morris inherits a partial ownership in the Stratton Park racecourse--and with it, a dangerous position among the warring upper-class family trying to settle its fate. Morris would like to see the course restored to its former grandeur, but the various Stratton heirs have plans of their own. When an explosion rocks the grandstands, the disagreement turns violent--and Morris finds himself in a race to save himself and his family from an unknown culprit.

It is not the end of your life but the start of trying to lead a different life' Helen Rollason This is the moving and inspirational story of the TV presenter who captured the hearts of the nation with her courageous fight against cancer. In August 1997 Helen Rollason was diagnosed with advanced colon and liver cancer and was given three months to live. She defied the prognosis and over the next two years pressed on with her work and life, managing the rigours of treatment, notching up new achievements and constantly setting herself targets for the future. She finally lost her battle with the disease in August 1999. In this book, written during the spring and summer of 1999, Helen balances a frank account of her experiences over the previous two years with an exploration of the professional and personal encounters which helped shape her approach to life's challenges. She describes breaking into the male world of BBC Sports to become the first female presenter of Grandstand and such diverse assignments as making a documentary on the street children of Bogota and interviewing the paralysed actor Christopher Reeve. She writes of covering the Olympics, the Paralympics and attending the World Cup, as well as her personal experience of mainstream and alternative cancer therapies. She talks of the support she received from her television colleagues and friends and also of the importance to her of her teenage daughter, Nikki, and their life together with their small black cat. ., Hodder & Stoughton, 2000, 3, London: Oldbourne, 1959.

Americans have long cherished sport for its display of supber skills, heroic effot, selfless teamwork, brilliant strategies, exuberance, spontaneity, and loylaty. This book moves beyond the myths and media hype to take a closer look at America's love of sport and how it so often comes into conflict with out most basic values. With reverence yet a sharp eye for the influence of big business, corruption, price gouging, political maneuvering, and media grandstanding, the author portrays well-known coaches and players and famous and not-so-famous events from professional and college sports to illuminate what sport means to us and how it affects our world. 185 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) . 1st Paperback Edition.
