Rich Life Stories is a micro film & TV indy based in Doncaster, and we've been making broadcast series since 2002 and we are still producing media, but now it's about making a difference over making money. We are new to this portal and every sale goes towards keeping these projects going. I create and curate people's stories as they encounter difficulties life throws at us, focusing on resilience through adversity and post-traumatic growth. We're all the stronger for knowing it's not just us suffering—together we're better. A lot of the books are from my personal archive, acquired while researching documentary projects. As such, the library is deep and wide. Every book is graded honestly to ABE standards, photographed clearly so you know what you're getting, and packed carefully before posting from the UK. Questions welcome - I will always reply. Thank you for reading. Rich. x.

EXCERPT: FOREWORD The demand for the first TV Quiz Book has been quite exceptional, and from the many letters we have received it would seem that people in all walks of life have found it entertaining and useful - schoolchildren (and their parents), youth club leaders and social workers, teachers, and many who have been looking for a new kind of party game. It has certainly been proved an excellent method of improving one's general knowledge. This Second TV Quiz Book is similar to its predecessor but the questions are, of course, different and many interesting new subjects have been introduced. The questions have been chosen and framed so as to avoid ambiguity or qualification and permit of definite answers, and, therefore, when the book is being used as material for a club or family quiz, it will be found very easy to devise a points scoring system, remembering to allow for questions and answers divided into several parts. The easier questions come at the beginning of each section. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. G. McKenzie (illustrator).

EXCERPT: FOREWORD The undoubted popularity of TV Quiz games is a measure of the interest which all of us have in "general knowledge." With some the motive is simply curiosity or the search for amusement. Others are more concerned with the practical value of being knowledgeable in a wide range of subjects. This TV Quiz Book is planned to satisfy all these requirements. The reader will be able to devise numerous games for amusement in the home, and the student, whether a candidate for the "eleven plus" or more advanced examinations, will find the contents a valuable help in his work. The importance of general knowledge in all examinations and interviews, selection boards, etc., has become much more pronounced of late, and there is no more pleasant or interesting way of raising one's proficiency in the subject than by making the study of it into a game. The questions have been chosen and framed so as to avoid ambiguity or qualification and permit of definite answers, and therefore, when the book is being used as material for a club or family quiz, it will be found very easy to devise a points scoring system, remembering to allow for questions and answers divided into several parts. The easier questions come at the beginning of each section. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. G. McKenzie (illustrator).
