Book excerpt: Swanage was already an old settlement when, in AD 877, a Viking fleet was wrecked there; chased by King Alfred, as recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. The Romans knew the place and quarried its stone for fine work, such as inscribed memorials, found as far away as Colchester. By the 13th century the quarries had become a major industry, with Purbeck 'marble' shipped for use in many of the cathedrals and churches throughout the Kingdom, and beyond. Always noted for its striking scenery, produced by its unusual geology, Swanage starts its story back in geological time, when dinosaurs left their bones in the Purbeck rocks. After centuries of primary production - quarrying, farming and fishing - the early 19th century brought a Cinderella transformation into an elegant watering place after Morton Pitt developed the Manor House Hotel (renamed Royal Victoria when the young Princess Victoria stayed there with her mother in 1833), though the elegance declined somewhat after the railway came in 1885, bringing day-trippers and holiday-makers who stayed a week or two. Now a full-blown resort, Swanage had a new pier serving regular paddle-steamers, on one of which Thomas Hardy arrived with his new bride to spend a year in lodgings at the cottage of the lifeboat coxswain ? The first edition of this book appeared in 1994, was widely acclaimed and quickly sold out. The authors have undertaken a complete revision, incorporating extra information from readers and their own further research. Every aspect of Swanage history is explored and explained in this very readable account by two well-known local historians. They convey in text and pictures not only a wealth of information but also their own enthusiasm for their subject ? Swanage Past

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating book covering fourteen generations of the extended Purchase family. The Purchase ancestors from England were related to Rev. Charles Haddon Spurgeon from London and were missionaries to Southern Africa. They settled in Northern Rhodesia and raised their families under very primitive conditions. In addition to instilling Christian principles into local Africans, they taught them common farming and building skills. The descriptions of confrontations with wild animals and interactions with native Africans are at times riveting. Successive generations of Purchases spread out all over the world.

Book excerpt: Whether dancing on the rooftops in Paris, sharing ideas with Pablo Picasso, or gathering starfish on the beaches of Cornwall, Eileen Agar (18991991) transformed the everyday into the extraordinary. Her legacy as a pioneering figure in the Surrealist movement is firmly established, and her work continues to captivate audiences with its otherworldly beauty and imaginative power. Agars life was no less extraordinary than her art. Here, she traces her life from her birth in Argentina to the late 1980s. She gives an intimate account of very different worlds: grand house parties in Buenos Aires and Belgravia as a young girl give way to la vie bohème in London and Paris, and a peripatetic existence with her lifelong partner, Hungarian writer Joseph Bard. She enjoyed enriching friendships with contemporaries Paul Nash, Ezra Pound, Evelyn Waugh, Gertrude Hermes and Henry Moore, while a summer spent in the South of France with Picasso, Lee Miller and Man Ray had a lasting impact. Agar introduces them and many others into the narrative of her artistic development; above all, it is Agars own unwavering resilience, infectious energy and drive that permeates this compelling memoir. Bringing her work to life in all its vibrancy and variety, this updated autobiography is populated with Agars own personal selection of photographs of family, friends and lovers alongside over fifty colour illustrations of collages, paintings and assemblages spanning her lifes work.
