Britain's very own embarrassing (royal) granddad turned 90 this
year and this shamefully funny collection of the Duke's greatest
gaffes celebrates the best from a lifetime of quotes that made the
nation groan and then laugh with embarrassment. With illustrations
throughout, this is a laugh-out-loud funny tribute to the master of
mis-speaking: When accepting a figurine from a woman during a visit
to Kenya he said: 'You are a woman aren't you?' He asked a Scottish
driving instructor how he 'kept the natives off the booze' long
enough to get a licence. In Cardiff he told children from the
British Deaf Association, who were stood by a Caribbean steel band:
'If you're near that music it's no wonder you're deaf'. 'Still
throwing spears?' - a question to an Aborigine during a visit to
Australia.

First Contact. The Next Visitation. A conduit to The Divine, in the
advent of ‘His’ return. Whether Alien or God, the History and
purpose of The Pyramids is rewritten. Or dare I say, explained; and
the mystery of UFO’s unraveled. No stone is left unturned.
Nothing is as it seems. Must we now unlearn all that we have been
taught. I think we might. This book is persuasive. Often biblical,
as though ‘The Proclamation of John’, you can trudge through
this intelligent and treacle rich literary style, and enjoy it for
that alone. Or enjoy the vistas of a new perspective, and walk away
from it profoundly changed, with a collection of unique gems of
knowledge and fresh ideas. This book is thought provoking. It will
make you wonder. You won’t read it as Science Fiction: it reads
as ‘The One Truth’ awaiting rediscovery. Quote: “This is the
trough where Great Leaders of The Future will drink”. & “ ~
as they lift the words from the pages of this humble binding, to
gain their inspiration”. This book is raw, with a palatable
sprinkling of social engineering. Books such as this are rare, and
when they do happen along, and manage to avoid being ignored and
undiscovered; or simply discarded into the annals of literature to
be forgotten, they form the very backbone of a cult following,
political movement or religion, that have, have had, or will have,
an impact upon Our World. Reading this book has been an education.
"An outstanding image consists of more than just acceptable
exposure and sharp focus - the two components that most photography
instruction emphasize. A fascinating subject doesn't necessarily
result in a good image, and likewise, it's possible to create an
impressive image from a mundane subject. How do you capture that
perfect image, and more importantly, what makes it great? That's
where this book comes in. Rather than wasting time trying one
approach after another until something seems right or memorizing a
list of rules, discover a new, more comprehensive and yet intuitive
way to think about photography and see the world around you by
using visual intensity. The quality of your imagery and the speed
of your workflow will both vastly improve once you are able to use
these techniques to articulate why you prefer one image to another.
Mother and son team Ellen and Josh Anon have spent years perfecting
their visual intensity based approach to composition, and in this
gorgeous, full color guide, they'll share their techniques with you
so that your overall photographic experience, both in terms of time
investment and quality of output, will become far more satisfying."

Ancient Egyptians imagined the afterlife as a kind of journey you
had to make to get to paradise - but it was quite a hazardous
journey so you would need help along the way. So spells and magic
formulas written on papyrus were placed in coffins and burial
chambers and believed to protect and aid the deceased in duat, or
the underworld. These funerary texts were developed over many
centuries into individualized collections known as the Book of the
Dead. One of the best-known versions, the 'Papyrus of Ani', is
featured here. Some 192 spells are known, although no single
manuscript contains them all. The spells are designed to give the
dead mystical knowledge in the afterlife, offer incantations to
help preserve different parts of the deceased, and protect the dead
from hostile forces. Some of the spells are to make sure you can
control your own body after death. The ancient Egyptians believed
that a person was made up of different elements: body, spirit,
name, heart, all embodiments of a person, and they were afraid that
these elements would disperse when you died. Presented in a
high-quality Chinese-bound format with accompanying illustrations,
Egyptian Book of the Dead is an ideal resource of esoteric wisdom
for anyone interested in Ancient Egyptian notions of death and the
path to the afterlife.
Countless thousands of people around the world have been restored
to joyful living by practicing the principles embodied in Al-Anon's
Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. The Steps outline a program of
personal recovery from the often devastating effects of another's
alcoholism. The Traditions, which are the gentle guides used by
Al-Anon groups, are readily adapted to healing personal
relationships.
Trends in Food Engineering presents a wide vision of food
engineering, with an emphasis on topics vital to the food industry
today. The first section deals with physical and sensory properties
of food. The emphasis in these chapters is on structure-function
relationships, food rheology, and the correlations between
physicochemical and sensory data. The second section, on advances
in food processing, includes recent developments in minimal
preservation and thermal and nonthermal processing of foods. The
book concludes with current topics in food engineering, including
applied biotechnology, food additives, and functional properties of
proteins.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER / #1 WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER /
#1 PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY BESTSELLER / #1 AMAZON BESTSELLER No American
leader has accomplished more for his state than Governor Ron
DeSantis. Now he reveals how he did it. He played baseball for
Yale, graduated with honors from Harvard Law School, and served in
Iraq and in the halls of Congress. But in all these places, Ron
DeSantis learned the same lesson: He didn't want to be part of the
leftist elite. His heart was always for the people of Florida, one
of the most diverse and culturally rich states in the union. Since
becoming governor of the Sunshine State, he has fought--and
won--battle after battle, defeating not just opposition from the
political left, but a barrage of hostile media coverage proclaiming
the end of the world. When he implemented COVID-19 policies based
on evidence and focused on freedoms, the press launched a smear
campaign against him, yet Florida's economy thrived, its education
system outperformed the nation, and Florida's COVID mortality rate
for seniors was lower than that in thirty-eight states. When he
enacted policies to keep leftist political concepts like critical
race theory and woke gender ideology out of Florida's classrooms,
the media demagogued his actions, but parents across Florida
rallied to his cause. Dishonest attacks from the media don't deter
him. In fact, DeSantis keeps racking up wins for Floridians. In
2022, the governor delivered a historic, record-setting victory,
winning by nearly 20 points and more than 1.5 million votes. A
firsthand account from the blue-collar boy who grew up to take on
Disney and Dr. Fauci, The Courage to Be Free delivers something
rare from an elected leader: stories of victory. This book is a
winning blueprint for patriots across the country. And it is a
rallying cry for every American who wishes to preserve our
liberties.
This book contains three classic fairy tales; Beauty and the Beast,
Jack the Giant-Killer, and The Three Little Pigs. They are
decorated with John Hassall's bold and charming black and white
line drawing and colour plates in his wonderful poster style that
so suits children's books. A wonderful book to add to any child's
collection. Pook Press are reprinting this book for adults and
children to enjoy once again.
Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
