Book excerpt: 1906 Lady Elizabeth "Libby" Sinclair, with her love of microscopes and nature, isn't favored in society. She flees to the beautiful Isles of Scilly for the summer and stumbles into the dangerous secrets left behind by her holiday cottage's former occupant, also named Elizabeth, who mysteriously vanished. Oliver Tremayne--gentleman and clergyman--is determined to discover what happened to his sister, and he's happy to accept the help of the girl now living in what should have been Beth's summer cottage . . . especially when he realizes it's the curious young lady he met briefly two years ago, who shares his love of botany and biology. But the hunt for his sister involves far more than nature walks, and he can't quite believe all the secrets Beth had been keeping from him. As Libby and Oliver work together, they find ancient legends, pirate wrecks, betrayal, and the most mysterious phenomenon of all: love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Isles of Scilly are one of Britain's best kept secrets. We want to keep it that way, so, apart from you, we are not going to tell anybody else about them. Please promise not to share this with friends, family, contacts, colleagues, perfect strangers and so on. Unless, of course, you are confident they will buy the book. If that's the case, spread the word. St Mary's, the other Saints Agnes and Martin's, along with Tresco and brave, battered Bryher offer the most stunning of holidays. Once bitten, you will be hooked. Forever. There are other, uninhabited islands in this archipelago nearly thirty miles off the coast of Land's End. Visit them as well. This book charts a family's ten years of visits. They are, they admit, very much newbies when compared to many regular holiday takers to Scilly. But, as the children have grown, the Peters' family have enjoyed so much, discovered so many aspects to the islands, tried so many new experiences, that they just have to share them with you. (Who, remember. they have carefully selected from the millions seeking to buy this book. If that's not an obligation to part with your cash, I don't know what is.) Learn about the individual characters of the different islands, share in the triumphs and disasters this ordinary family have experienced. Discover the location of the world's best tuna sandwiches, find out about touring the main island by golf cart, or how to appear on Scilly Radio and get your own favourite song wrecked by a local DJ. Learn a bit about the locals who live on this tropical paradise, somehow to be found in Northern Europe. The Isles of Scilly truly are Britain's most amazing islands, indeed, the word 'Britain' could easily be swapped for Europe or even 'The World'. This cheery read is perfect for anybody planning a holiday to Scilly, a couple of weeks, a short break or even a day trip (yes, it is possible). Equally, for those who simply enjoy finding out about their country in a bright and light-hearted way, read on and you might find next year's holiday plans sorted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Isles of Scilly, five inhabited islands 24 miles west of Lands End, were of low priority to the War Department when the First World War was declared. With no manufacturing capability, no industry other than flower growing and agriculture, no electricity or gas, no mains water supply, no wireless station, and a population of only 2,000, the islands did have one feature in their favor their location. Sitting at the cross roads of six major shipping routes, Scilly had been a recognized ship-park since 1300AD, where sailing ships anchored to safety awaiting a suitable wind, to re-victual, pick up water or effect repairs. The Admiralty sought to make it a harbor for the Channel Fleet in the mid-1800s, and in 1903 spent £25,000 defending the islands with 6-inch gun batteries, only to take them away seven years later. When, in 1915, German U-boats moved from the North Sea into the Western Approaches, sinking large numbers of merchant vessels, Scilly was chosen to become a Royal Navy Auxiliary Patrol Station, and over time was sent 20 armed trawlers and drifters as escorts, mine-sweepers, mine-layers or anti-submarine vessels, along with 500 Royal Navy personnel. In 1917 Tresco Island became a Royal Naval Air Station, with 14 flying boats and over 1,000 personnel. The islands were suddenly at the forefront of the submarine war. This book details Scilly's contribution to the war effort, with attention to its civilian population, the heartbreak of losing forty-five of its sons, and the trauma of countless seamen rescued from torpedoed ships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1906 After a summer of successful pirate-treasure hunting, Lady Emily Scofield and her friends must hide the unprecedented discoveries they've made, thanks to the betrayal of her own family. Horrified by her brother, who will stop at nothing to prove himself to their greedy father, Emily is forced to take a stand against her family--even if it means being cut off entirely. Bram Sinclair, Earl of Telford, is fascinated with tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table--an interest he's kept mostly hidden for the last decade. But when a diary is unearthed on the islands that could lead to a secret artifact, Bram is the only one able to piece the legends together. As Bram and Emily seek out the whereabouts of the hidden artifact, they must dodge her family and a team of archaeologists. In a race against time, it is up to them to decide what makes a hero worthy of legend. Is it fighting valiantly to claim the treasure . . . or sacrificing everything in the name of selfless love?

Book excerpt: Revered author Michael Morpurgo evokes the post-war Britain of his childhood in this unflinching and deeply poignant tale of the physical and mental scars of war. From a young age, Michael was both fascinated by and afraid of his grandfather. Grandpa’s ship was torpedoed during the Second World War, leaving him with terrible burns. Every time he came to stay, Michael was warned by his mother that he must not stare, he must not make too much noise, he must not ask Grandpa any questions about his past. As he grows older, Michael stays with his grandfather during the summer holidays and learns the story behind Grandpa’s injuries, finally getting to know the real man behind the solemn figure from his childhood. Michael can see beyond the burns, and this gives him the power to begin healing scars that have divided his family for so long.
