When a young Mary McAleese told a priest that she planned to become a lawyer, the priest dismissed the idea: she knew no one in the law, and she was female. The reality of what she went on to achieve - despite those obstacles, and despite a sectarian attack that forced her family to flee their home - is even more improbable. In this luminous memoir, Mary McAleese traces that astonishing arc: from the tight streets of north Belfast, to a professorship in Dublin while still in her twenties, behind-the-scenes work on the peace process, and two triumphant terms as President of Ireland.

Richard III is one of the most mysterious figures in English history, and as such is the source of perennial fascination.

This new edition of a classic royal biography includes an account of the discovery of Richard’s remains in a Leicester car park in September 2012 and what his skeleton revealed about the physical condition of the last Plantagenet and the manner of his death.

And yet we know so little about medieval England’s greatest enemy.

Before he was a politician, Chris Bryant was an Anglican priest, baptising babies and holding the hands of the dying. Before that, he manned the barricades in Latin America, and before that, he was the scared son of an alcoholic mother and an estranged father. This is a no-holds-barred account of a Minister’s truly unconventional life before politics – one that has left Bryant equally at home behind the altar, in sweaty gay night clubs, on the hustings or the stage.

”Vi tolererar inga förlorare.” Det var på den grunden som Joseph P Kennedy byggde sin familjedynasti. Och han insåg att pengar är vägen till framgång, först på Wall Street och i filmindustrin med Gloria Swanson, sedan i politiken.

Revanschlusten blev drivkraften också för hustrun Rose och de nio barnen. När Joseph P Kennedy inte lyckats med en politisk karriär ställdes kravet på den äldste sonen att bli USA:s president.
