Paperback. Condition: New. Gloriously Human is a 'go to' book for the third decade of the 21st century. It is an uplifting call to action to each and every one of us to raise our individual and collective awareness and consciousness : an invitation to move away from a way of living that is unsustainable and unhealthy for all life, including humanity, and yes that does include you and me too. Gloriously Human's inspirational ethos is that when we reconnect to the small inner voice that always calls us home, we can live a truly authentic life. This book is filled with wisdom and insights gleaned by consciously living a spiritual life, whilst for decades living and working within the mainstream individualistic and secular view of the world. Gloriously Human is heartening in articulating what it means to be truly human in the 21st century. Its workbook format provides us with ample space to reconnect to our own internal wisdom with a sense of inner peace and calm, harnessing the seeds of embedded knowledge as catalysts that we can apply to our own daily lives. At its core, Gloriously Human is encouraging us to move towards being a conscious active participant in creating healthy, congruent thoughts and confident decisions that provide clarity of purpose to our own daily actions, which will in part, replenish and heal our fractured world .

Paperback. Condition: New. The Glendon family seek a new home and fortune in The Lucky Country after Patrick's farm in Ireland is bankrupted by a freak storm. Their journey traverses the epic landscape of Australia and their fate collides with a cast of equally lost souls on the vast wheat and sheep station in Western Australia owned by Jack Anderson, a man as tough and ruthless as his pioneering father. Australia in the early 1960's was a world on the brink of change. The Lucky Country strained under its White Australia Policy and was opening up to a greater diversity. Aboriginals had not been viewed as full human beings, one reason why their children were stolen with impunity and herded into missions. The referendum of 1967 at last accorded some level of citizenship. But storyteller, Ben Down, is as uprooted as any of the immigrants he encounters, the ways of his ancestors in his 'Born Country' no longer possible. Stories and memories weave together over the breadth of the twentieth century and one man's luck may be another's misfortune.

Paperback. Condition: New. Of all the enemies that our hero has shrunk away from, there was one he feared above them all. By his own admission they gave him nightmares into his dotage. It was not the French, the Spanish, the Americans or the Mexicans. It was not even the more exotic adversaries such as the Iroquois, Mahratta or Zulus. While they could all make his guts churn anxiously, the foe that really put him off his lunch were the Ashanti."You could not see them coming," he complained. "They were well armed, fought with cunning and immense savagery and above all, there were bloody thousands of the bastards."This eighth packet in the Thomas Flashman memoirs details his misadventures on the Gold Coast in Africa. It was a time when the British lion discovered that instead of being the king of the jungle, it was in fact a crumb on the lip of a far more ferocious beast. Our 'hero' is at the heart of this revelation after he is shipwrecked on that hostile shore. While waiting for passage home, he is soon embroiled in the plans of a naïve British governor who has hopelessly underestimated his foe. When he is not impersonating a missionary or chasing the local women, Flashman finds himself being trapped by enemy armies, risking execution and the worst kind of 'dismemberment,' not to mention escaping prisons, spies, snakes, water horses (hippopotamus) and crocodiles.It is another rip-roaring Thomas Flashman adventure, which tells the true story of an extraordinary time in Africa that is now almost entirely forgotten.

Paperback. Condition: New. This is the third instalment in the memoirs of the Georgian Englishman Thomas Flashman, which were recently discovered on a well-known auction website. Thomas is the uncle of the notorious Victorian rogue Harry Flashman, whose memoirs have already been published, edited by George MacDonald Fraser. Thomas shares many of the family traits, particularly the ability to find himself reluctantly at the sharp end of many major events of his age. While many people have written books and novels on the Peninsular War, Thomas Flashman's memoirs offer a unique perspective. They include new accounts of famous battles, but also incredible incidents and characters almost forgotten by history. Flashman is revealed as the catalyst to one of the greatest royal scandals of the nineteenth century, which disgraced a prince and ultimately produced one of our greatest novelists. In Spain and Portugal he witnesses catastrophic incompetence and incredible courage in equal measure. He is present at an extraordinary action where a small group of men stopped the army of a French marshal in its tracks. His flatulent horse may well have routed a Spanish regiment, while his cowardice and poltroonery certainly saved the British army from a French trap. Accompanied by Lord Byron's dog, Flashman faces death from Polish lancers and a vengeful Spanish midget, not to mention finding time to perform a blasphemous act with the famous Maid of Zaragoza. This is an account made more astonishing as the key facts are confirmed by various historical sources.
