A tale of shadows; the in-between of the forgotten spaces that lay between the borders of good and evil.
'Rose, Castle and Crown' offers a unique exploration of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight's citizen soldiers, tracing their history from the militia and yeomanry to the Territorial Army and today's Army Reserve. Placed in the wider context of British Army history, this book sheds light on the often-overlooked role of local auxiliary forces in defending the country's shores. Little has been written about these brave individuals who, throughout history, have balanced their service with family demands and civilian employment. This book tells their story.
Rose Gold is the thrilling sequel to the bestselling Blue Gold. A perfect slice of thrilling 'climfic', Rose Gold is set in the near future, in the aftermath of a world war for water. Geopolitical tensions remain high and terrorism is a daily fact of life. But a mining base on the moon offers a rare example of international co-operation and a possible solution to the world's energy problems. Yet not everyone on Earth is keen for this endeavour to succeed... Rose Gold is the sequel to Blue Gold, but can be read as a stand-alone novel. It draws on influences as diverse as Arthur C Clarke s A Fall of Moondust, the film Moon and Agatha Christie s murder mysteries.
One bright autumn morning, Rose and her cheeky companion, Banjo, head off to fly their kite. A lovely picture book story about friendship, the outdoors, pet care and adventure.

Rose Wylie RA is the third artist to participate in an exhibition collaboration between the Royal Academy and The Gallery at Windsor, Vero Beach, Florida. This book accompanies her show and features an interview with the artist by Tim Marlow, Artistic Director at the Royal Academy, and an essay by the actor and art collector Russell Tovey. The exhibition comprises new paintings and drawings - wittily observed and subtly sophisticated meditations on the nature of visual representation itself. Using images as a prompt, Wylie often works from memory, and the associated works on a single subject offer an insight into her complex creative process. Wylie's work has been the subject of renewed critical attention in recent years, with major shows in Europe at venues including Turner Contemporary, Margate (2016), the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, London (2017), Tate Modern, London (2018), and the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo, Málaga (2018).

Rebel Rose Greenhow: Spy, diplomat, fund raiser and despatch carrierAccounts of the female spies of the American Civil War who served their causes on both sides of the conflict continue to fascinate modern readers. The principal account in this book is an autobiographical account by a notable Confederate spy, Rose O'Neal Greenhow. Her position as a socialite in pre-war Washington DC put her in a perfect position to be acquainted with high- ranking Union military men and politicians. In the first months of 1861 she was effectively in control of the spy network in the Federal capital and Jefferson Davis, the Confederate president went so far as to credit her with significantly influencing the early Confederate victory at First Bull Run in July, 1861. Rose was, however, caught and imprisoned before being deported to the Confederacy. Becoming a diplomat for the southern cause, she ran the maritime blockade, sailing to Europe visiting France and Britain between 1863-4. This account was, in fact, first published in London to considerable acclaim. Rose returned to America in 1864, but her vessel was intercepted by a Union gun-boat close to the North Carolina shore. Taking to a rowing boat to escape capture with $2,000 dollars of gold sewn into her undergarments and about her neck, she was drowned when a wave over turned the boat. Rose was given the honour of a military funeral. Her autobiographical account is accompanied in this edition by a short biographical vignette by W. G. Beymer.
