Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone talks about 'Middle England'. Sometimes they mean something bad, like a lynch mob of Daily Mail readers, and sometimes they mean something good, like a pint of ale in a sleepy Cotswold village in summer twilight. But just where and what is Middle England? Stuart Maconie didn't know either, so he packed his Thermos and sandwiches and set off to find out... Is Middle England about tradition and decency or closed minds and bigotry? Is it maypoles and evensong, or flooded market towns and binge drinkers in the park? And is Slough really as bad as Ricky Gervais and John Betjeman make out? From Shakespeare to JK Rowling, Vaughan Williams to Craig David, William Morris to B&Q, Stuart Maconie leads the expedition, with plenty of stop-offs for tea and scones, to discover the truth.

Book Synopsis The Woman at the Front by : Lecia Cornwall
Download or read book The Woman at the Front written by Lecia Cornwall and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A daring young woman risks everything to pursue a career as a doctor on the front lines in France during World War I, and learns the true meaning of hope, love, and resilience in the darkest of times. When Eleanor Atherton graduates from medical school near the top of her class in 1917, she dreams of going overseas to help the wounded, but her ambition is thwarted at every turn. Eleanor's parents insist she must give up medicine, marry a respectable man, and assume her proper place. While women might serve as ambulance drivers or nurses at the front, they cannot be physicians—that work is too dangerous and frightening. Nevertheless, Eleanor is determined to make more of a contribution than sitting at home knitting for the troops. When an unexpected twist of fate sends Eleanor to the battlefields of France as the private doctor of a British peer, she seizes the opportunity for what it is—the chance to finally prove herself. But there's a war on, and a casualty clearing station close to the front lines is an unforgiving place. Facing skeptical commanders who question her skills, scores of wounded men needing care, underhanded efforts by her family to bring her back home, and a blossoming romance, Eleanor must decide if she's brave enough to break the rules, face her darkest fears, and take the chance to win the career—and the love—she's always wanted.

Download or read book The Long Kill written by Reginald Hill and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A retired assassin becomes a target in this “feverishly suspenseful . . . tour de force” by the author of the Dalziel and Pascoe mysteries (Publishers Weekly). Best known for his Dalziel and Pascoe novels, which were adapted into a hit BBC series, Reginald Hill proves himself to be a “master of . . . cerebral puzzle mysteries” in his stand-alone thrillers as well—now available as ebooks (The New York Times). Jaysmith is a hit man highly regarded for his telescopic flair for the “long kill.” Until failing eyesight results in a career-first: Jaysmith misses his target. Perhaps it’s time to retire. Where better than the English Lake District? He’s fallen for beautiful young widow and single mother Anya Wilson, and has found himself a cozy cottage where he can hang up his M1. Just two problems: Anya’s loving father is the man he was hired to kill, and Jaysmith’s vicious handlers aren’t letting him—or his intended target—off the hook. Even if it means taking out Anya and her son with him. For Jaysmith, it’s going to be another first: defend, rather than destroy. But this time he’s really got to focus.
