Raised from the Dead is the personal account of award winning TV
news anchor Frank Turner's triumphant journey through abandonment,
sexual abuse, drug addiction and three fatal cocaine overdoses. It
also includes fascinating insight into his involvement with the
Nation of Islam as Louis Farrakhan's former son-in-law. Your image
of what a "stonecold, cocaine-junkie-crackhead" looks like probably
doesn't include an impeccably dressed, very professional and
extremely articulate television anchor delivering your evening
news. But it should. For twenty-five years, the life of two-time
Emmy award winning broadcaster, investigative reporter and news
anchor, Frank Turner, was a roller coaster ride that took him from
the heights of achievement to the depths of addiction. With no
choice but to build upon his damaged foundation of abandonment,
abuse and sexual molestation as a child, Turner simultaneously
constructed a brilliant career and a tormented life. Even as he
interviewed kings and presidents, mayors and moguls, reported on
disasters and major developments of all kinds, gathered and
delivered the most exciting news stories from around the
world-Frank's most shocking and powerful story was always his own.
But it has never been told-until now. Come inside and follow this
man's fascinating journey from abused little boy to "America's
First Evangelical Anchorman."

*The Sunday Times Bestseller* *Featuring an exclusive new chapter*
On 23 September, 2005, at the Joiners Arms in Southampton, Frank
Turner played his last gig with his hardcore band, Million Dead. On
the laminates that listed the tour dates, the entry for 24
September simply read: 'Get a job.' Deflated, jaded and hungover,
Frank returned to his hometown of Winchester without a plan for the
future. All he knew was that he wanted to keep playing music. Cut
to 13 April 2012, over a thousand shows later (show 1,216 to be
precise), and he was headlining a sold-out gig at Wembley Arena
with his band The Sleeping Souls. Told through his tour
reminiscences, this is the blisteringly honest story of Frank's
career from drug-fuelled house parties and the grimy club scene to
filling out arenas, fans roaring every word back at him. But more
than that, it is an intimate account of what it's like to spend
your life constantly on the road, sleeping on floors, invariably
jetlagged, all for the love of playing live music.
*THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER* The brand new memoir from the Sunday
Times bestselling author of The Road Beneath My Feet. Taking 36
songs from his back catalogue, folk-punk icon Frank Turner explores
his songwriting process. Find out the stories behind the songs
forged in the hedonistic years of the mid-2000s North London scene,
the ones perfected in Nashville studios, and everything in between.
Some of these songs arrive fully-formed, as if they've always been
there, some take graft and endless reworking to find 'the one'. In
exploring them all, Turner reflects with eloquence, insight and
self-deprecating wit on exactly what it is to be a songwriter. From
love songs and break-up songs to political calls-to-arms; songs
composed alone in a hotel room or in soundcheck with the Sleeping
Souls, this brilliantly written memoir - featuring exclusive photos
of handwritten lyrics and more - is a must-have book for FT fans
and anyone curious about how to write music.

Jamestown, Alaska is the story of Aaron Jennings, a bestselling
novelist bored by his life of suburban monotony and increasingly
disturbed by violence heralded in his newspaper, who wakes one
morning to find a small red book on his doorstep. There is no
title, no author given: just the words The Survival Manifesto
inscribed on the first page, and an invocation to the chosen few to
abandon the society of the incompetent, lazy, and immoral and build
a new utopia in the wilds of Alaska. Jennings is invited to the
commune to write, or rewrite, the history of the imminent worldwide
revolution. Skeptical but insatiably curious, Jennings sets out for
Alaska in the company of the seven mysterious members of the
Committee, pursued by a sinister figure who seems to oppose the
Committee's mission. But the human vices have reached Jamestown
first, and order in the commune is already faltering. As Jennings
becomes entangled with the secrets of Jamestown, falling out of
touch with his family and the life he left behind, he grows
increasingly paranoid about what kind of game he's stumbled into,
and whether anything in Jamestown is as it seems. In spare prose,
Frank Turner Hollon's Jamestown walks the line between ludicrous
and ominous,
