"How wonderful it is to have this book to be able to recognize the negatives that ill our thoughts. The possibility for people to change Edward says is now conceivable. Edward Jones knows the path to living a life of significance is to know who we are. To live with a sense of purpose where in our lives we create meaning, a life of significance. The Awakening reveals universal truths to provide us all the understanding. His ultimate goal is to place our minds in position, for us to grow true to form and live out our primary purpose. Sad to say it's that very purpose we've turned against. This book explains it's by our turning against this purpose we're destroying our selves and our world. Certain chaos is in only a matter of time, for it's the present negatives in our way of thinking, following their instinctive course. But it's Edward's inspiring message that provides the understanding and Hope." - Bill Dixon, a friend
In The Witches of St Petersburg, we met Grand Duchesses Militza and her sister Anastasia, queens of the Dark Arts. This is Nadezhda’s story. A city in flames. A revolution raging. A woman on the run. Nadezhda has never wanted to be a witch. But the occult is in her blood. Her mother, Militza, conjured Rasputin and introduced him into the Romanov court, releasing the devil himself. Now he is dead but Militza still dreams of him – he stalks her sleep and haunts her waking hours. As Petrograd burns and the Russian Empire crumbles, Nadezhda escapes through the corpse-laden streets of the capital, concealing on her person a book of generational magic. Magic she once described as foolishness. But as danger grows ever closer, she may be forced to embrace her heritage to save what she loves most… Based on a true story, The Witch’s Daughter is an epic tale of women rising from the ashes of an empire, perfect for fans of Elodie Harper's The Wolf Den and Madeline Miller’s Circe. Praise for Imogen Edwards-Jones: 'Sumptuous, sexy and haunting.' Santa Montefiore 'Razor-sharp... brilliant.' Candace Bushnell 'I couldn't put it down.' Claudia Winkleman
An epic story of love, tragedy and the loss of innocence, set against the background of the Russian Revolution after the murder of Rasputin. It is 1916 and Rasputin has finally been killed by those who have long feared his influence over Tsar Nicholas and Tsarina Alexandra. But for Princess Militza, famed as one of the 'Witches of St Petersburg', and her daughter Nadezhda, life is about to become extremely dangerous. Revolution is bubbling and with it will come the murder of the Romanov imperial family. Now the rest of the court is also on the run, fleeing from the mob. Against this violent and turbulent backdrop, Nadezhda, the witch's daughter, finds in exile and captivity an extraordinary and unlikely love. They say nothing heals like the heart, but as the Red Army marches south and the remnants of the Russian court finds itself trapped in the Crimea, with their backs to the sea, Nadezhda and her beloved Prince Orlov must take the gamble of their lives. Praise for Imogen Edwards-Jones: 'Sumptuous, sexy and haunting. I adored this novel.' Santa Montefiore 'Razor-sharp. A brilliant take on the historical novel.' Candace Bushnell 'I couldn't put it down.' Claudia Winkleman
Roman Britain, first published in 1972, gives the young reader a vivid impression of the British Isles immediately preceding, during and after the Roman occupation, which lasted for 400 years. Using a selection of extracts, both historical and imaginative, it offer a suitably comprehensive account of Roman Britain: the campaigns fought to subdue it, the military and civil government established to govern it, relations between the Imperial administration and the natives, and the departure of the legions to fight elsewhere in the Empire. Selections of poetry by John Masefield, W.H. Auden, Rudyard Kipling and A.E. Housman are included, together with prose extracts from Bede, Tacitus, Hilaire Belloc, Henry Treece, Alfred Duggan, Rudyard Kipling. Physically compact, Roman Britain encourages young classicists and historians to engage imaginatively with the subject, whilst also supplying ample opportunity for more detailed discussion and further reading.

Using practical examples, this book demonstrates how a theoretical model for shared care operates in practice to deliver improved health outcomes within limited resources. It shows how clinically-led initiatives can influence health care commissioning strategies, and how the implementation of the model meets the needs of clinicians, purchasers and providers. The model and evaluation protocols advocated here provide a firm foundation for the development of shared care in the future.

'Sumptuous, sexy and haunting' Santa Montefiore. Brimming with black magic, sex and intrigue, a gorgeous historical novel for fans of Dinah Jefferies and Santa Montefiore. The Russian Empire is on the verge of collapse. Revolution is in the air. The starving stalk the streets of St Petersburg and yet the Imperial Court still commute between their estates and organise their lavish balls. Two sisters arrive in the city. Princesses from Montenegro; they are famed for their wild beauty and mystical powers. Initially ridiculed and outcast as the daughters of a provincial 'Goat King', they react in the only way they know how. They befriend the isolated Tsarina Alexandra and, using their gifts, they help her in her increasingly desperate quest to give birth to a son and heir. The circle closes. The girls are the gateway. Gurus, clairvoyants, holy fools and charlatans all try their luck. Then in one last, doomed, throw of the dice, the sisters introduce Rasputin into the Russian Court... Based on the true story of the lives of Princess Militza and Princess Anastasia of Montenegro during the dying days of the Russian Empire, The Witches of St Petersburg is a tale of love, lust, power and betrayal at the heart of the Romanov Court. |
