James Seymour (c. 1700-1752) is one of the founders of English
sporting art. A lover of the Turf, Seymour specialised in
depictions of horses and their riders, particularly at Newmarket
between 1722 and 1752. His wonderful paintings and drawings are
some of the most important records we have of the early greats,
such as Flying Childers, and of the way racing was organised at
this early stage. Richard Wills has studied Seymour for over ten
years, and this book is the first ever comprehensive account and
catalogue. 130 paintings and 430 drawings, including new
discoveries, are included in the book, with over 500 illustrations,
many never reproduced before. The introductory essay examines the
life of Seymour, whose devotion to the Turf enabled him to lose a
fortune and to gain an unrivalled knowledge of equine anatomy and
behaviour. Considerable information about the history of racing,
and its enrichment through analysis of Seymour’s paintings, is
contributed by David Oldrey and Tim Cox.

This book engagingly presents an intriguing account of many of the
principles of UK government politics and how these have an
important bearing on everyday office life as experienced by the
working population. Here is a fascinating account of the findings
of two former Cabinet ministers Lords Blunkett and Baker who were
interviewed by the author. Oral testimony allows the reader to
learn about the perspectives of political power brokers and
provides data and insight not always apparent or revealed from
historical records and archive material. The overriding aim is to
analyse the nature of politicking in central government and to
apply the techniques and lessons of national politics to everyday
office life. The book offers a political framework, giving
behavioural pointers to assist those who face challenging
circumstances that could impinge on their well-being and business
efficiency in the workplace. A back to basics methodology is
advised, touching on a range of techniques, including, for example,
that gossip is an effective way of getting back at someone. This
touches upon Blunketts assertion that Michael Gove MP is a zealot
and a politician having an ideological obsession. Applying the
Lessons refers moreover to cases calling for bargaining and
negotiation, also a part of the life of the whips in Parliament,
and an essential tool for office business. As a seasoned historian
and political analyst, Richard Willis revealingly unravels the
nature of political power and control, and shows how Margaret
Thatcher and Tony Blair initially supposedly gave Baker and
Blunkett considerable scope in introducing reform. He goes on to
explain how the two peers give their critique on policy-making
against a background which is of definite benefit to office
managers and supervisors, executive assistants, PAs,
administrators, and administrative/administration assistants.

The demands of congregational ministry are many, the rewards
sometimes seem few, and burnout becomes a real possibility. Small
wonder, then, that churches become stuck in a state of arrested
spiritual development. When the pastor is functioning in a survival
or maintenance mode, the church's vitality is often the first
casualty. Yet Wills's own experience demonstrates that churches can
turn around; the wind of the Spirit can be felt anew. This happens
when the congregation is infected by the vision of what God is
doing in their midst--a vision which the leaders, particularly the
pastor, must bring before them.
In Waking to God's Dream, Richard Wills shares the spiritual
disciplines and insights which he believes account for the
transformation of the congregation he serves from a large church in
decline to one that is growing and reaching out to its community in
a variety of creative ministries. Detailing the steps and
initiatives that led to this turnaround, Wills demonstrates how
personal commitment on the part of the congregation's leaders and
ministers have been the key to the work they have accomplished.
