LIVES THAT NEVER GROW OLD A radical new series – edited by Richard Holmes – that recovers the great classical tradition of English biography. Every book is a biographical masterpiece, still thrilling to read and vividly alive. This short, brilliant, action-packed biography appeared only eight years after Nelson’s death at the Battle of Trafalgar (a scene unforgettably described). It helped transform Nelson into the most popular wartime hero that Britain has ever placed on top of a column. It first gave currency to the proverbial stories of his courage and exhibitionism, from the ‘blind eye’ at Copenhagen, to ‘Kiss me, Hardy’ and the scandal of ‘Beloved Emma’ at Naples. It was written by the romantic poet and historian Robert Southey, a one-time radical who was converted to patriotism by Nelson’s shining (though not ‘untarnished’) example.

A great coloring book of a classic story retold with a new twist and a happy ending. A story adults and children can enjoy together. Children will learn important life lessons while they learn to color. It is very funny and a little scary. While they enjoy coloring the characters and scenery they will learn about personal safety, responsibility, friendships and a healthy lifestyle. What happens when Goldilocks has a conscience and when she becomes Silverlocks? How the best gifts could have unexpected results? How small changes can change your life in a big way. Recommended for children of all ages, parents, grandparents and teachers.
