As I worked with Brian on this book he told me that he could remember his time of National Service like it was yesterday, but ask him to tell what he did earlier in the week and it would be more difficult! Brian shares his memoirs of being a young man who joined the British Army as an Infantry Soldier and served two years in the conscripted National Service.  It is a personal story, giving detailed descriptions of everyday Army life, including a spell of 'Jankers' and journeying over 28,000 miles to far off places including the Far East.  It will likely bring back many fond memories for National Servicemen from the 1950s. During his time in the second Battalion, Essex Regiment, Brian experienced life on troopships, H.M Diwara and H.M Empire Fowey. This book contains over 40 original photographs and is a 'must read' for those fascinated by recent military and social history.

Victoria gives us the first book to share the stories of women around the world, throughout the HIV/AIDS epidemic. For almost forty years, straight women have been affected by HIV/AIDS. They have fought for the right to be included in clinical trials and qualify for disability benefits. They have raised money and awareness. But until now, their stories have been ignored or forgotten, even in accounts of women’s history. Victoria draws on personal interviews and archival research. Some of the names are familiar; such as Elizabeth Taylor and Princess Diana, most are not. But all have left a lasting impact on the fight against a virus that has killed over 40 million people around the world, half of them women.

I had the pleasure of working with Ladey on the interior design of my book.  It was a book with over two dozen photographs, but most challenging, one with an extensive index that she created. Ladey is both easy to work with and a real professional. I would use her again without hesitation and endorse her enthusiastically!

Miley was a smiley dog, or so everyone thought. But, Miley had a secret - her mind was poorly. She didn't want anyone to know. Then one day she did the bravest thing! Miley's Mind introduces the concept of mental health in a child-friendly way. It highlights how abuse, bullying and grief impacts emotional well-being, and encourages children to talk about their feelings. "... a powerful tool for anyone interested in supporting children's mental health and well-being. " - Dr Rachel Wicaksono, Head of the School of Education, Language and Psychology, York St. John University "Having seen first-hand the effects of a global pandemic, the unease of social isolation and the receding of childhood in these neoteric times, the themes and lessons covered in this book come at a critical time. We need to start talking about mental health and earlier." - Dr Michael McArdle - Paediatric Accident and Emergency Doctor, Leeds Teaching Hospitals “A wonderful book that deals with the subject of children’s mental health in a sensitive, but powerful way." - Tony Staneff, Director of Learning, Trinity Multi Academy Trust "Katie Goodacre generates high levels of enthusiasm, participation and commitment to child progression and I’ve no doubt that Miley’s Mind will be really helpful to children’s mental health development." - Richard Holmes, Chief Executive Officer, The Kings Active Foundation “Miley’s Mind introduces what is often seen as a difficult and uncomfortable topic to young readers, and is carefully explored with calmness and sensitivity." - Matthew Marshall, Student Teacher, York St John
