This fascinating selection of over 180 old photographs and postcards depicts Windsor and Eton over the last one hundred years. Windsor's Royal connections and monuments and Eton College are world famous and need no introduction. Perhaps less well known, but no less important, are the streets, people and events of everyday life in and around such internationally renowned landmarks. Street parties, schools, Dr Barnardo's boys, breweries, amateur dramatics, pubs, butchers selling ice cream alongside joints and cuts of meat, evacuees, Boy Scouts, floods, charabanc outings, football teams and the fire brigade are all remembered in this evocative collection. The Thames has always played an important part in the life and development of the town, whether for business or pleasure, as shown by images of boat builders, bridges, steamer trips, the Empress of India, the Windsor Belle and College boys rowing on the river. The author, Mike Stiles, not only spent his formative years in Windsor, but also worked at Windsor Great Park and on many of the buildings in the town. Most of the material in his book has been drawn either from his own extensive collection or from family sources. The result is an informative, affectionate recollection that will appeal to all those who know and love this historic area.

Two hundred years ago, a prophet wrote of an approaching cataclysm: a worldwide rebellion in which millions will die. In 1968, a cult called the Society of the True Judgment is preparing to rise up and fulfill this prophecy in bloodshed and death... unless Edwin Terwilliger can stop it. Ever since Ed Terwilliger's wife was murdered, his life has become a daily struggle against despair. When the old ceramic gnome in the garden starts talking to him, he fears that the last remnant of his sanity has finally slipped away. But Ed is not crazy-at least, not yet. The gnome is real, and it knows the truth about why Ed's wife was killed. To find out its secret, Ed will first have to join forces with it to defeat its old enemy: the leader of the Society, a powerful telepath who plans to destroy the world. Forest of the Mind is the first of three volumes in 'The Book of Terwilliger'.
