Jane Austen at Home: A Biography
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
‘This is my kind of history: carefully researched but so vivid that you are convinced Lucy Worsley was actually there at the party – or the parsonage.’ Antonia Fraser
‘A refreshingly unique perspective on Austen and her work and a beautifully nuanced exploration of gender, creativity, and domesticity.’ Amanda Foreman
Lucy Worsley ‘is a great scene-setter for this tale of triumph and heartbreak.’ Sunday Times
On the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death, historian Lucy Worsley leads us into the rooms from which our best-loved novelist quietly changed the world.
This new telling of the story of Jane’s life shows us how and why she lived as she did, examining the places and spaces that mattered to her. It wasn’t all country houses and ballrooms, but a life that was often a painful struggle. Jane famously lived a ‘life without incident’, but with new research and insights Lucy Worsley reveals a passionate woman who fought for her freedom. A woman who far from being a lonely spinster in fact had at least five marriage prospects, but who in the end refused to settle for anything less than Mr Darcy.

Jane Austen’s Wardrobe
Hilary Davidson delves into the clothing of one of the world’s great authors, providing unique and intimate insight into her everyday life and material world
What did Jane Austen wear?
Acclaimed dress historian and Austen expert Hilary Davidson reveals, for the first time, the wardrobe of one of the world’s most celebrated authors. Despite her acknowledged brilliance on the page, Jane Austen has all too often been accused of dowdiness in her appearance. Drawing on Austen’s 161 known letters, as well as her own surviving garments and accessories, this book assembles examples of the variety of clothes she would have possessed―from gowns and coats to shoes and undergarments―to tell a very different story. The Jane Austen Hilary Davidson discovers is alert to fashion trends but thrifty and eager to reuse and repurpose clothing. Her renowned irony and wit peppers her letters, describing clothes, shopping, and taste. Jane Austen’s Wardrobe offers the rare pleasure of a glimpse inside the closet of a stylish dresser and perpetually fascinating writer.Read more

Jane Eyre on Social Media: The perfect gift for Brontë fans

With courage, determination and logged into her social media accounts – plain Jane Eyre is ready to take on the world. But then she meets and begins to fall for Edward Rochester, AKA the definition of a red flag, with screenshots to prove it.

Japan at War in the Pacific: The Rise and Fall of the Japanese Empire in Asia: 1868-1945
“By the time of Japan’s surrender in 1945, an entire generation had grown up knowing nothing but conflict; but the transformation of Japan into a militarist power began decades earlier, with the toppling of the old samurai regime, and the rush of the formerly isolated nation onto the world stage.”Japan at War in the Pacific recounts the dramatic story of Japan’s transformation from a Samurai-led feudal society to a modern military-industrial empire in the space of a few decades―and the many wars it fought along the way. These culminated in an attempt by Japan’s military leaders to create an Asia-Pacific empire which at its greatest extent rivaled the British Empire in scope and power.
The battle for supremacy in the Pacific brought the Japanese to great heights but led ultimately to the nation’s utter devastation at the end of World War II, culminating with the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki―the only time such weapons have been used in warfare.
In this book, author Jonathan Clements offers fascinating insights into:
- The wars that Japan fought during its rise to supremacy in the western Pacific, including the Russo-Japanese War, the seizure of Manchuria and war in China, and the Pacific theater of World War II.
- The many military actions undertaken by Imperial Japanese forces including the horrific “Rape of Nanjing,” the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the decisive defeat at the Battle of Midway, the savage Battles of Okinawa and Iwo Jima, and many more.
- The motivations and beliefs of Japan’s leaders, as well as the policy decisions of a government dedicated to expansion which ultimately led to a complete dismantling of the nation’s political and social order during the Allied Occupation.
- With over 75 photographs and maps, this book vividly recounts the amazing story of Japan’s military conquests. Clements charts the evolution of the Japanese empire in the Pacific and the influence of a ruthless military-led government on everything from culture and food to fashion and education―including the anthems and rallying calls of a martial nation which were silenced long ago but continue to echo in Asian politics.

Japan’s Gestapo: Murder, Mayhem and Torture in Wartime Asia
From the author of Children of the Camps, a look at the disturbing activities of the Kempeitai, Japan’s feared military and secret police.The book opens by explaining the origins, organization, and roles of the Kempeitai apparatus, which exercised virtually unlimited power throughout the Japanese Empire. Author Mark Felton reveals their criminal and collaborationist networks that extorted huge sums of money from hapless citizens and businesses. They ran the Allied POW gulag system that treated captives with merciless and murderous brutality. Other Kempeitai activities included biological and chemical experiments on live subjects, the Maruta vivisection campaign, and widespread slave labor, including “Comfort Women” drawn from all races. Their record of reprisals against military and civilians was unrelenting. For example, Colonel Doolittle’s raid on Tokyo in 1942 resulted in a campaign of revenge not just against captured airmen but thousands of Chinese civilians. Their actions amounted to genocide on a grand scale. Felton backs up his text with firsthand testimonies from survivors who suffered at the hands of this evil organization. He examines how the guilty were brought to justice and the resulting claims for compensation. As a result, Japan’s Gestapo provides comprehensive evidence of the ruthlessness of the Kempeitai against the white and Asian peoples under their control.

Japandi is the newest and hottest trend in interiors: a harmonious combination of functionality, comfort, and the minimalist look that characterizes Scandinavian design, with the purest elegance of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

Chapter one of the book examines the converging principles that have contributed to the emergence of Japandi Style such as functionality, neutral colours, the importance of organic materials, and the thoughtful simplicity of shapes.
