Cedric comes from a long line of Fartlebottoms. Even a grown-up can probably work out why his ancestors were given this name. In times gone by this bottom situation didn't matter too much. It was pretty smelly anyway. But now? Lot's of grown-ups seem to get upset by sudden noises and smells. Especially Cedric's Aunt Buttercup. Poor Cedric and his friend Trevor just want to be left alone with their farts. But Aunt Buttercup is out to stop them...even though she has a strange smell of her own. "Disgusting,' Donna Letoff. "If only they had read my book," I. Ken Holditin. Cedric is written by Ged Duncan and illustrated by his father, John. Ged lives in Dorset and John, or 'JD', lives in London - but despite this they have managed to collaborate on this astonishing contribution to world literature. Ged is also the author of the 'Sydney the Smuggler' trilogy, and John, 'Cricket Wonderful Cricket'. www.smuggles.org www.gedduncan.info www.cricketwonderfulcricket.com

An entertaining and wonderfully interesting magical book about a very mysterious British poet, known by the name of 'Jedi, The Urban Poet'. Who is he? Where does he come from? What has he got to say about life? When I was approached to do this book, as an author I felt privileged to publish Jedi's poems and reveal a small hint of his story, but I am still no wiser to who he is or where he really comes from, or where he is going next. All I know is Jedi the Urban Poet appears like a ship out of the fog and disappears like a shadow when the sun goes back in behind a cloud. He is a protester of lost causes and a friend of the underdog. The last words he said to me before he said goodbye were, "I' a citizen of nowhere but always homesick for somewhere." May all who read this book enjoy it!

nidottu
Ged Austin's book, 'The Good Shepherd's Lie', has truly shocked the literary world in much the same way that George Orwell's animal farm and epic 1984 books once shocked the public of yesterday. Once you read this masterpiece, you will never see the world in the same way again. Imagine if your whole life had been a lie, and you only found out the moment you die. If nothing else you will love this satirical plot, and its magical ending is one that won't be forgot.

John A. Macdonald

John A. Macdonald

Ged Martin

Dundurn Group Ltd
2013
pokkari
A biography of Canada’s first prime minister, a legendary political strategist who helped found a new nation in 1867. Shocked by Canada’s 1837 rebellions, John A. Macdonald sought to build alliances and avoid future conflicts. Thanks to financial worries and an alcohol problem, he almost quit politics in 1864. The challenge of building Confederation harnessed his skills, and in 1867 he became the country’s first prime minister. As "Sir John A.," he drove the Dominion’s westward expansion, rapidly incorporating the Prairies and British Columbia before a railway contract scandal unseated him in 1873. He conquered his drinking problem and rebuilt the Conservative Party to regain power in 1878. The centrepiece of his protectionist National Policy was the transcontinental railway, but a western uprising in 1885 was followed by the controversial execution of rebel leader Louis Riel. Although dominant nationally, Macdonald often cut ethical corners to resist the formidable challenge of the Ontario Liberals in his own province. John A. Macdonald created Canada, but this popular hero had many flaws.

The Fool's Progress: Poems

2012
nidottu
These poems span a number of years and form a collection of work so far. In the title sequence, The Fool's Progress, a court jester engages in a fantasy relationship with the king's daughter. Baudelaire's Scrapbook addresses the lascivious distractions of the world and the exigencies of mortality. Here are the re-purposed voices of Icarus and Orpheus. Captain Ahab is snagged in a trawl net. In the collection are lyrical evocations of the Yorkshire landscape and the Scottish Highlands, and explorations of the human condition through the contemplation of art, love, sin and sacrifice.
