Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Secrets from a Chinese Kitchen presents exquisite and authentic Chinese recipes in a collection that stands out for its variety and balance, its requirements for fresh ingredients and essential methods for making the most of the qualities of those ingredients to enhance their flavour. Potential pitfalls are explained with the secrets for avoiding them, learnt by the authors from their famous father Ken Lo and from years of their own experience passed down within the family. Regional dishes are described simply and linked to evocative notes on travel throughout China; healthy as well as traditional aspects have been incorporated. Every aspect of the Chinese cuisine is explored through over 100 recipes, including the delicious Crispy Five Spice Chicken Legs and the aromatic Dry Tossed Chilli Prawns. The special 'secrets' that accompany each dish help the cook to recreate the most authentic dishes, such as tips on cooking meat under a low heat for a long length of time so that it steeps in its juices until it melts in the mouth. The book is divided into sections that present the recipes through the exciting techniques that are used to make them, such as steaming, preparing soups and stir-frying. There are also fascinating introductions that explore the staple ingredients used in Chinese cooking, such as noodles, which describes how they are made, what types there are, where they come from and their uses within the delicious accompanying recipes. Jenny and Vivienne Lo draw on their Chinese background and what they have learnt from earlier generations. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The summer of 2018: England sweltered in the most sustained heatwave for 42 years, the government tore itself apart over deals and no deals, and hundreds of miles away, in a taciturn and strange state, the national football team did the unthinkable in the World Cup: they didnt screw it up. The England team that touched down in Russia for the 2018 World Cup was a new-look outfit: there were no real stars, no overblown egos, and no dickheads. Still reeling from the wincing exit to Iceland in the 2016 Euros, expectations were at an all-time low. Qualification had been smooth if not spectacular, and pundits and fans alike were lukewarm about the teams chances. Just avoiding embarrassment would have counted as some kind of success. As the tournament kicked off, a stunningly stage-managed occasion by Putin and his cronies at FIFA, we all took a deep inhale of breath and waited for the inevitable: technical ineptitude and crap penalties. How wrong we were. Over the next three weeks, as back home we dissolved in the heat, our football team gave us reason to believe. We squeaked a win against Tunisia, trounced Panama and had a great tactical defeat to Belgium to open up the draw to the final. We all bought waistcoats and eulogised Southgates calm, fatherly manner. We all fell in love with Slabhead, aka Harry Maguire. And we did it all to the tune of Its Coming Home. Barney Ronay was there through the whole tournament, crisscrossing over Russia as he followed the England team, and the rest, on their quest for glory. Here, he captures the sights and sounds, the twists and turns, the bad food and the great football that contributed into making this World Cup one of the greatest of all time.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A Short History of Falling like The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, and When Breath Becomes Air is a searingly beautiful, profound and unforgettable memoir that finds light and even humour in the darkest of places. Now with a Foreword by Joes widow, Gill Hammond We keep an old shoebox, Gill and I, nestled in a drawer in our room. Its filled with thirty-three birthday cards for our two young sons: one for every year Ill miss until theyre twenty-one. I wrote them because, since the end of 2017, Ive been living with and dying from motor neurone disease. This book is about the process of saying goodbye. To my body, as I journey from unexpected clumsiness to a wheelchair that resembles a spacecraft, with rods and pads and dials and bleeps. To this world, as I play less of a part in it and find myself floating off into unlighted territory. To Gill, my wife. To Tom and Jimmy. A Short History of Falling is about the sadness (and the anger, and the fear), but its about whats beautiful too. Its about love and fatherhood, about the precious experience of observing my last moments with this body, surrounded by the people who matter most. Its about what it feels like to confront the fact that my family will persist through time with only a memory of me. In many ways, it has been the most amazing time of my life.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Boxing's colourful history is filled with chapters of high drama and simmering controversy. Many boxing fans are familiar with the outcome of the most memorable bouts, but few know the secrets surrounding them. In The 12 Greatest Rounds of Boxing: The Untold Stories, Ferdie Pacheco, MD - longtime physician and cornerman for Muhammad Ali and television analyst known worldwide as the Fight Doctor - not only selects the dozen best rounds ever fought, but reveals what went on behind the scenes, from chicanery and Mob influence to romantic liaisons and wild high-jinx. Drawing on his unique insider's perspective, Pacheco answers whether Mahammad Ali's phantom punch in 1965 really did knock out Sonny Liston, or was Sonny simply too scared to get off the canvas? With World War II looming, was German heavyweight champion Max Schmeling warned by Adolf Hitler to beat Joe Louis, or else? Did Jack Dempsey have something illegal in his glove when he battered gigantic Jess Willard into bloody submission in 1919? All these fascinating untold stories offer an intimate glimpse of boxing's inimitable characters and the often bizarre world they inhabit. Illustrated throughout with stunning photographs, including many rare prints, The 12 Greatest Rounds of Boxing vividly brings that world to light.
