1940s comedy starring George Formby as a junior council employee
who gets caught up in a town planning dispute. There should be
unity and happiness in the small town of Tangleton - the war has
just been won and plans can be made to rebuild the town for a
better future. However, when the council tea boy, George Gribble
(Formby), is sent to conduct a survey on how the townspeople feel
about the council's proposed post-war 'improvements' he is
surprised to discover just how poor and unhappy the ordinary people
of Tangleton are. When the bigwigs on the council decide to bury
the survey and proceed with the plans anyway, George teams up with
an eccentric inventor, Sir Timothy Strawbridge (Robertson Hare),
and his charming daughter, Jane (Elizabeth Allan), to give a voice
to the town's poor and downtrodden.
The 254 landscape photos in this book, along with the accompanying
facts about them, illustrate all of the counties of Texas. Each
county includes a map of its location and iconic photography of
that county's notable landscape and natural setting. The
photographer, Lance Varnell, has the heart of an environmentalist
and had the eye of a photographer. The word "had" is used here
because following the 15-year adventure of collecting these
photographs, Lance contracted a rare disease that left him blind.
His father, Ronn Varnell, led his son into a love of photography
and was so impressed with the collection that he encouraged Lance
to put together this book. 254 illustrates Lance's love for nature
and a rare talent to capture the varied landscape of Texas.

Another title in the best-selling '25' series, from award-winning
author and master teacher Barbara Seagram, and using the same
popular format as earlier books. Other titles in the series have
revolved around bidding; this one deals with the play of the cards
as declarer, a major topic in beginner and intermediate bridge
lessons. As usual in this series, basic ideas on the strategies and
tactics available to declarer are covered comprehensively in the
early part of the book, while in later chapters, more advanced
players will find ideas and topics that challenge their own
understanding of the game.
