Paperback. Condizione: New. Irish Sports Book Award 2021 Winner! Fight Or Flight: My Life, My Choices is the autobiography of Irish rugby legend Keith Earls. Keith Earls started out in senior rugby as a teenage star and during the course of his long career has become one of the most admired and respected players of his generatio…n. A British and Irish Lion at the age of 21, he is now closing in on his 34th birthday and still playing at the top of his game. He has won 93 caps for Ireland and played over 180 games in the famous red of Munster. He started every match of the 2018 Six Nations campaign that culminated in an Irish Grand Slam victory. A lethal finisher blessed with a sprinter's speed, Earls is the second-highest try scorer of all time for his country. With Munster he is one try short of the all-time total and looks set to break that record next season.Yet, Earls has achieved these milestones whilst being racked by private battles with his mental health for most of his career. A number of crises brought him to the brink of voluntary retirement from the game.A native of Limerick city, Earls grew up in one of its most socially disadvantaged housing estates. Moyross was blighted by crime and violence and he did not escape unscathed from the surrounding fear and trauma visited upon his beloved community. His natural talent brought him into the privileged bastion of elite rugby union. His autobiography tells the story of his long struggle to reconcile the world whence he came with the world opened up by his brilliance with an oval ball.Earls has maintained a low profile throughout his career. For the first time he will talk in depth and at length about the inner turmoil that went unseen by team-mates, friends and fans. It is a confessional, intimate and courageous story of the pain that was a constant companion to the glory.Earls says: "It's not me at all to be doing anything remotely like an autobiography. I don't like talking about myself, I don't like bringing attention to myself. And I guess that's one reason why I am doing it. We're supposed to get out of our comfort zone. I've learned enough along the way to know that much. It's where your progress and growth happens. I hope if I can share some of my life experiences here, it might inspire others.".

Paperback. Condizione: New. The heartbreaking story of a mother who lost two sons to an abusive husband. But saved countless othersOn October 22, 2014, Claire Throssell's life changed forever after her ex-husband lured their two children, Jack, 12, and his nine-year-old brother, Paul, to the attic of their family home, before de…liberately setting fire to the house, murdering his children and killing himself.Claire had been subject to her husband's cruel coercive, physical, emotional and financial abuse throughout their 16-year marriage. After she found the strength to leave her husband, his campaign of brutality didn't end, but the courts ignored her, and their sons' wishes. They gave him unsupervised access to their two sons, despite Claire's concerns that he was very capable of harming them. Her worst fears came true.Since 2016, Throssell has been an ambassador for Women's Aid and IDAS (Independent Domestic Abuse Service). Determined to ensure the voices of children never go unheard again, she has played a fundamental role in the implementation of the Domestic Abuse Bill, as well as ensuring survivors of domestic abuse can no longer be cross-examined by their perpetrators in the Family Court.Claire also played a significant role in pushing for all judges to be trained on the subject of domestic abuse and has spearheaded the Child First campaign, lobbying parliament to abolish the 'presumption of contact' guidelines in child custody cases.For My Boys is Claire's heartbreaking story and her tale of determination to seek justice for her sons and give a voice to all children who are at risk at the hands of an abusive parent. Her battle with government and court bureaucracy will anger and shock, but Claire's humbling and remarkable story of strength will inspire.

Paperback. Condizione: New. "Having lived through these experiences and been unable to speak out - not knowing how to use my voice to ask for help - I am thrilled that I am finally being heard and my story is being told."This is a memoir about childhood neglect; childhood sexual abuse; and living in care - but it is also one of…the best examples of resilience and survival.Groomed and abused as a child, Liz could easily have crumbled. Instead, she stood up and saw justice done.But Hear Me is more than one woman's story - as remarkable and powerfully written as that story is.It is also a call to arms for the unheard victims across the country.

Until these topics are highlighted on prime-time TV, on drive time radio shows, and are discussed around the dinner table and in the playground, abusers will continue to abuse, protected by a blanket of fear. Liz is hopeful her story will contribute to a change in the culture we live in.Despite the horrors she has endured, Hear Me is also a beautifully, sometimes even funny, memoir which will make readers stop in their tracks and really think.

Paperback. Condizione: New. As a pioneer in the field of TV betting, Rob thinks he has uncovered the path to untold riches, winning big on Strictly Come Dancing, X Factor, Eurovision - you name it.While millions sat on their sofas watching and wondering who might win or who'd be evicted from their favourite shows that week, Rob…would be working out the odds, checking his formulas and gambling big.Rob's book takes readers into the fascinating world of TV gambling and beyond. Surviving the nerve-jangling moments waiting and watching to see if his luck was in or if he'd be on the breadline that week, Rob honed his skills over years to seem almost psychic.And he didn't stop at TV, branching out to take a chance gambling on everything from the mating habits of pandas in a zoo to whether a superstar will sing with their top off on stage.But he soon discovers that cleaning up with the bookies comes at a huge cost. With his trading exploits taking over his every waking thought, and creating a life of desolate solitude Robinson Crusoe would be proud of, he fears his obsessive pursuit of the golden ticket is poised to end unhappily, in lonely bachelorhood.So he decides to take his longest shot yet - heading off into the wilds of provincial Russia, with dreams of a James Bond-style tryst with a mystery woman who could yet turn out to be a vodka-drinking scammer aiming to fleece him out of house and home.Detailing the often weird and downright wacky investments Rob makes over two decades of betting, The Gambler reveals the roller coaster world of someone willing to risk it all on the most outlandish outcomes, including when it comes to seeking romance.Quirky, irreverent and authentic, this is a deeper tale about adventure, taking a leap of faith, and seeking to beat the odds.

Paperback. Condizione: New. 'Helen Lederer is the third funniest woman in the world' - Dawn French What was it like as one of a handful of women at the heart of the right-on alternative comedy scene in the 1980s? Piece of cake? Bit of a laugh? Well, yes, and no. It had its ups - but also its downs. Helen Lederer was a regular on… the stand-up circuit and new-wave sketch shows in the decade that launched the careers of today's comedy household names and national treasures. She shared stages with comedy pioneers like Ben Elton and John Hegley, and TV screens with Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, Harry Enfield, and many others. From the iconic Absolutely Fabulous, to Bottom, Happy Families, Naked Video, French and Saunders and Girls on Top, it is difficult to think of a comedy show that Helen wasn't a part of. From writing radio shows, to performing on the West End her wry, witty perspectives, and her face, are unforgettable. So, plain sailing then? Well, not really. Not That I'm Bitter, her powerful, frank, moving and characteristically funny memoir, reveals exactly how choppy the waters could be. Even in those ground-breaking, anti-Thatcher days, there was only room at top for so many women. For the rest, it was as much a struggle to be seen and heard in the world of comedy as in any boardroom or workplace, and just as difficult to avoid the predators. This is more than the story of one decade, however. The child of a Jewish-Czech wartime refugee, Helen Lederer was never part of the mainstream. How do you make humour from a lifelong battle against problems with weight and low-self-esteem? Where are the jokes in addictions to diet-pills and steroid injections? How can laughter defeat the darker moments, like a child's anorexia or PTSD? How do you cope with constant self-sabotage and when, despite enormous success, you still feel like a failure? Helen raises an important and open discussion around mental health alongside the evolved attitudes to women today. There's something in Helen Lederer's life-story that everyone, can relate to. A genuinely funny memoir with lots of heart (and just the right amount of bitterness!), she pulls no punches, but every blow is wrapped in a laugh of recognition. Brilliantly written, revealing, and moving, Not That I'm Bitter is sweet, sour, laugh-out-loud, and addictive.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In the vein of the bestselling I'll Be Gone in the Dark, this compelling work of true crime explores the aftershocks of "Killer Clown" John Wayne Gacy's crimes with a uniquely intimate slant, as the daughter of a key witness probes her mother's personal experiences and the legacy of murder within a fa…mily, a community, and the American psyche.On a December night in 1978, Courtney Lund O'Neil's mother, teenager Kim Byers, saw her friend Rob Piest alive for the last time. At the end of his shift at the pharmacy where they both worked, fifteen-year-old Rob went outside to speak to a contractor named John Wayne Gacy about a possible job.That night Rob became Gacy's final victim; his body was later found in the Des Plaines River. Kim's testimony, along with a receipt belonging to her found in Gacy's house, proving that Rob had been there, would be pivotal in convicting the serial killer who assaulted and killed over thirty young men and boys.Though she grew up far from Des Plaines, Courtney has lived in the shadow of that nightmare, keenly aware of its impact on her mother. In search of deeper understanding and closure, Courtney and Kim travel back to Illinois.Postmortem transforms their personal journey into a powerful exploration of the ever-widening ripples generated by Gacy's crimes. From the 1970s to the present day, his shadow extends beyond the victims' families and friends--it encompasses the Des Plaines neighborhood forever marked by his horrific murders, generations of the victims' families and friends, those who helped arrest and convict him, fandom communities, and many others.Layered and thought-provoking, Postmortem is a complex story of loss and violence, grief and guilt, and the legacy that remains long after a killer is caught.

In his other role as Wales' football manager, he would mastermind his country's appearance in the World Cup finals - taking Wales to the brink of the semi-finals in 1958.The Man Who Kept The Red Flag Flying has been written in full cooperation with Murphy's family, with unique insight from sons Nick and Jimmy Junior.

Her relationships seemed doomed because she had damaging flashbacks and seizures whenever she became intimate.But in 2015, she met her husband, Craig, and found true happiness.

This time, at last, they listened.In April 2022, Gerard King, 59, was convicted of rape, indecent assault and indecency with a child at Chester Crown Court.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Victor Chandler, the most recognisable face in bookmaking, tells his remarkable life story in 'Put Your Life On It: Staying At The Top in the Cut-throat World of Gambling.'In this new authorised biography written by Jamie Reid, Chandler will reveal how gambling was in his blood from birth. Discover ho…w his grandfather dealt with Darby Sabini's Italian mob, Alfie Solomons and the real Peaky Blinders. How his father, Victor senior, built up the firm only for illness to force 'Young Victor' into the fray at the age of 23 - the start of a high life and fast times.To begin with, he found the going tough. He almost accepted an offer to sell up from Playboy Bookmakers. But fortunately he stuck with it just in time to enjoy his first profitable Royal Ascot and from then on there was no going back.In the face of the UK recession in the 1990s he went out to the Far East and began duelling audaciously with colossal Asian punters while dodging the attentions of the Triads in Hong Kong and Macau. Then at the end of the decade he sparked a revolution by moving his entire business offshore to Gibraltar; he is often credited with being the first to take gambling online.Victor shares his often hilarious memories of 40 years of a high-octane racing and bookmaking life, populated by a huge cast of colourful characters including the artist Lucian Freud, who painted 'VC' as well as betting with him.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The untold story of the infamous criminal, Charles Salvador - known to millions asBritain's most violent prisoner Charles Bronson - from the unique perspective of hiswife Irene Dunroe.Every other book about Charles romanticises his crimes and violent nature, while Inside and Out examines his life befo…re prison, when was a completely 'normal', well-adjusted young man, and how deeply loss can affect behaviourThe author is in weekly correspondance with Charles Salvador over email and letters and has been invited to visit Charles in Long Lartin prison to inform her research.---A story of two halves, documenting the life of Irene Dunroe - the first wife of Michael Peterson, now known as Charles Salvador, Britain's most notorious and longest serving prisoner. The story will be told from two points of view, a chapter dedicated to Irene's view from when she first met 'Mick', followed by a chapter dedicated to Charlie's view.As well as documenting Irene's life, the story will show in Charlie's chapters what was going on in his life behind bars, and will focus on never before told details of how Irene's life impacted his state of mind. Charlie was aware of everything that was happening in Irene's life, and though he didn't acknowledge it at the time, in retrospect he realises that a lot of his violent outbursts behind bars were directly related to his feelings of anger and grief at losing the only people he had truly loved - his wife and his son.This is a truly tragic love story, and despite Irene re-marrying, having two more children, and living a full life without her first husband, she has always been drawn back to Charlie, and he to her. Now, more than 40 years after divorcing and both in their 70s, the star-crossed lovers seem to be drawn together once again. Irene lights up when she talks about 'her Mick', and in his many letters to the author, Charles can't help but talk about his heart missing a beat and his breath being taken away when 'his Irene' visits him.This book ends with a series of questions.Is this man really a monster? How much has the system created him? Is it now time for the parole board to give him a chance to live out his final years as a free man? While never excusing the violence and horror he has inflicted on others, Shaw takes an in- epth look, for the first time, at the possible root causes of his behaviour.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In national treasure Dame Kelly Holmes' most personal book yet, she tells the true story behind her extraordinary life from army recruit to Olympic hero and much- loved TV personality. Last year, Dame Kelly came out publicly as being gay and revealed that for the first 52 years of her life she'd been…living a LIFE OF FEAR. Now in a heart-rending and inspirational new memoir she tells of her journey from hiding her sexuality as a young soldier at a time when being gay in the military was illegal, to her fears of being outed as she stood on the podium at the Athens Olympics, the games which catapulted her to fame as a double-gold medallist. Dame Kelly tells how she has managed to find happiness and inner peace as she has opened herself to a world where she's finally free to be herself, and proud. In the last year she has become an unofficial ambassador for the LGBT community and has become one of the best- loved faces of daytime TV, joining the regular panel of ITV's Loose Women. This honest memoir is a tale of self-discovery, overcoming struggles and learning to be true to yourself. This honest memoir is a tale of self-discovery, overcoming struggles and learning to be true to yourself. Dame Kelly says: "80,000 people were chanting my name as I stood on top of a double-decker bus and did a victory lap of my hometown. I'd won two Olympic gold medals, the first woman the UK to ever do that, and I should have been on top of the world at my homecoming parade but even in that magical moment I had this deep fear that someone was going to go to the media and out me for being gay. "All my life I lived with that fear and anxiety of not being accepted if I lived publicly as my true self. But 18 years later I was standing on stage in Trafalgar Square at London Pride, and people were chanting for me again, this time for the person I have become and I was finally free to be me. Nothing is perfect, the journey continues and I'm learning every day about the community I'm now proud to be part of. But I'm being true to myself and that means everything.".

Paperback. Condizione: New. A collection of interviews with men and women from the Silent Generation - those born between 1928 and 1945 - about their childhood experiences during World War Two "Those men and women who donned uniforms to 'do their bit' were not the only ones affected by a conflict that turned the world upside dow…n. Many millions of children also lived through the war."Each November we remember the sacrifice and courage of the soldiers, sailors and airmen who fought in two world wars. Sadly, as each year passes, only a handful of veterans survive to tell their stories, and those of their comrades who paid the ultimate price.But there's another group of women and men, themselves now elderly, who also survived a war. They may not have borne arms, or worn a uniform, but they too faced war's horrors - as children - and they bear its scars. They may not be war veterans but they are war's victims and survivors.Author Chris Manby and social historian Simon Robinson finally give a voice to those children, and tell some of the very few untold stories of World War Two. Tales of hardship, danger, brutality and terror."Alongside their parents and grandparents, they too faced the blitzes, lived on rations and were, in many terrible cases, imprisoned, subjected to torture and used as slave labour. Though the children of World War Two were too young to serve they were not too young to suffer."Moving, compelling, tragic and uplifting, it is also a story of our times as the authors say. "A new generation of children is spending nights in bomb shelters, becoming refugees and losing their loved ones. Perhaps listening to the voices of those who were children during World War Two, and examining how their lives developed in the decades that followed, can help us to better understand how to support this new band of war babies in the years to come. It's time for the Silent Generation's stories to be heard.".
