On Assassinati ons K������ B����

In this revealing look at the history of assassinations, Kenneth Baker examines over a hundred political and religious murders or attempted murders, ranging from Julius Caesar to President Kennedy to Osama bin Laden. Assassins hope to change the world, but rarely succeed: Baker concludes that the assassination of Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in June 1914 was the only one that changed the history of the world. Other assassinations, whether of monarchs, politicians, dissidents, clerics, journalists or others at best give only a glancing blow at history. Th e author concludes that, in Macbeth’s words, an assassination ‘is a poisoned chalice.’ Kenneth Baker also reveals that since 1945 there have been fewer individual assassins working alone; now assassinations are more likely to be carried out by political and religious terrorists, or by the security services of certain states to eliminate dissidents. Not only Russia and Israel, but the USA, the UK and others have resorted to targeted killings when they consider their security is under threat. On Assassinations shows how we have moved from the era of individual assassinations, through to terror groups’ murders and now onto state-sponsored targeted killings Kenneth Baker, Lord Baker of Dorking CH, is a British politician and a former Conservative MP having served in the Cabinets of Margaret Th atcher and John Major as Environment Secretary, Education Secretary and Home Secretary. He has previously written fi ve poetry anthologies for Faber, fi ve books on the history of cartoons including George III: A Life in Caricature and George IV: A Life in Caricature, his memoirs, Th e Turbulent Years, and most recently On the Burning of Books and On the Seven Deadly Sins published by Unicorn.

MacDonald Gill Charti ng a Life C������� W�����

MacDonald 'Max' Gill (1884-1947) was an architect, letterer, mural painter and graphic artist of the fi rst half of the 20th century, best known for his pioneering pictorial poster maps including the whimsical Wonderground Map of London Town. His beautiful painted panel maps decorate the Palace of Westminster and Lindisfarne Castle and the alphabet he designed in 1918 is still used on the British military headstone. He enjoyed close links with many leading fi gures in the arts & craft s world: the architects Sir Charles Nicholson, Sir Edwin Lutyens and Halsey Ricardo, the calligrapher Edward Johnston, Frank Pick of the London Underground, and his brother – the sculptor and typographer Eric Gill. Overshadowed in recent times by his controversial brother, MacDonald Gill was nevertheless a signifi cant artist of his time. With much of his four-decade output touching on the remarkable events and developments of his time – including two world wars, the decline of Empire, the advent of fl ight, and innovations in communications technology, his work also takes on a unique historical importance. Drawing chiefl y from family archives, this biography of MacDonald Gill is the fi rst publication to tell the story of this complex and talented man. Caroline Walker is the great-niece of MacDonald Gill, and has been researching his life and work since 2006. She now spends much of her time researching, writing articles, giving lectures and running the artist's website. She has been co-curator of several exhibitions dedicated to her great- uncle including Out of the Shadows: MacDonald Gill at the University of Brighton in 2011 and Max Gill: Wonderground Man at the Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft in 2019. Caroline is an accredited lecturer for Th e Arts Society.

Wild Neighbours Portraits of London’s Magnifi cent Creatures S���� C����������

‘London is not just a city of ten million people, it is also home to and an extraordinary diversity of beautiful wildlife. With world population exploding and more and more countryside being lost to urban sprawl or commercial agriculture, the sharing of urban space with nature is more important than ever. Since London is my city, I set out to observe and create photographic portraits of all the creatures I could fi nd. Whilst this has taken many hundreds of hours, it has been the happiest time imaginable as I immersed myself in the sweetness and delight of my wild neighbours.’ Sarah Cheesbrough grew up in London and Birmingham, she swam for England, read International Studies at university, modelled in London, Paris and Tokyo, and worked as an advertising executive at J. Walter Th ompson before striking out on her own path as a self- taught freelance photographer. In recent years Sarah has focused on projects that are close to her heart. Her 2012 book, In Buddha’s Garden, featured her evocative photographs of the Buddhist monks of Luang Prabang. Following an exhibition in 2014 curated by Founder and ex-Director of Paris Photo, Rik Gadella, In Buddha’s Garden was selected by the Lao National Commission to UNESCO as the gift to fellow delegates at the 34th International UNESCO Conference in Paris. In 2018, Sarah had two London exhibitions of urban bee photographs, including one for Th e Royal Parks. Wild Neighbours is the result of several years watching wildlife in London in a state of wonder. It has been a true homecoming for Sarah, to her city, to her heart and to the Nature that sustains her.

Seaside 100 A History of the Briti sh Seaside in 100 Objects K������ F����

Sandcastles, donkeys, piers and sticks of rock. Beach huts, paddle steamers, promenade shelters and ice cream cones. Our modern seaside is the sum of its parts and all those parts have their history. Th is book explores the best-loved features of our favourite holiday destinations, each object and building adding its own layer to the story of our shared seaside heritage. Using a mixture of historic images and modern photographs the book takes a roughly chronological journey through the things that have made our seaside distinctive. Th e places where we have chosen to take our holidays for the past three hundred years have been transformed from mere stretches of coastline but they are not like inland towns. Inside these pages can be found a celebration of all that makes our seaside special. Kathryn Ferry grew up near the coast in North Devon, but usually only went to the beach out of season in her wellies. In 1998 she fell in love with beach huts during a visit to Herne Bay in Kent. Inspired by this surprising new passion, she began researching their story and, in the summer of 2002, she went on a two-month journey around the English coast to record the state of the nation's huts. She has been researching their history every since and is now the national beach hut expert. Having fi nished her PhD studying architectural history at the University of Cambridge, she decided to specialise in the seaside. She is the author of eight books, including titles on the British seaside holiday, bungalows, 1950s kitchens and, most recently, the offi cial history of Butlin’s.

It was indeed a playful style, involving exaggerations of scale both large and small and surprise juxtapositions of elements.3 Osbert Lancaster, compiling his satirical guide to the styles of architecture, Pillar to Post in 1939, called it ‘Pont Street Dutch’, writing that in this part of Chelsea, ‘the cultured frequently pointed out, with considerable pride, that a wayfarer in that high-class residential district might easily imagine himself to be in Vermeer’s Delft.’4 Indeed, Cadogan Square represents the North European tendency within the broader Queen Anne movement rather than its English identity suggesting, in Mark Girouard’s words, ‘a hyper-concentrated canal-side in Antwerp’.5 Victorian ‘Queen Anne’ represented a distinctive turn in the cycle of taste, connected to new ideas about society, less intensely Protestant in its religious practices and more willing to acknowledge the public role of women. ‘Artistic’ was a key term – a lifestyle choice of a generation. Indeed, one of the earliest houses to anticipate the Queen Anne trend was designed for the artist George Pryce Boyce (1826–97) at 35 Glebe Place, just south of King’s Road, in 1869–71.

Hsiao Chin and Punto Mapping Post-War Avant-Garde J����� G���

Hsiao Chin spent his formative years in Europe experiencing the Western Modern Art movement. As a leading post-war Asian artist, he has contributed immensely to the development of avant-garde art and established himself in the abstract movement in Asia. As a co-founder of Punto Movement in Milan during 1961-1966, Hsiao is the rst and only post-war Chinese artist attempting to convey Eastern philosophical ideas and the concepts of mindfulness and self-contemplation in the Western pictorial language of abstraction. Hsiao’s works are not only artistic representations of Asian philosophy but, in a broader context, are an intellectualised expression of Asian ideas in their essential forms.  e understanding of the entire post-war avant-garde art scene would not be complete without mentioning Hsiao Chin and the Punto Movement, along with American Abstract Expressionism, French Lyrical Abstraction, and Japanese Gutai.  is book records thirteen Punto exhibitions, which demonstrates Hsiao’s contribution to the international cultural realm throughout his artistic career. Included here are in-depth articles on Hsiao‘s historical signi cance in the twentieth century.  e book also introduces his iconic oeuvres over the last six decades; work that reconciles Eastern and Western art prospects. Dr Joshua Gong is a leading expert on contemporary Chinese art and chinoiserie. He was a teacher in the art history department, University of Sussex. His monologue Iconography and Schemata: A Communicating History in Painting between China and the West, 1514-1885 is a landmark in the eld. His article ‘Lv Peng and his Chinese Art History in Operation, since 1986’ was published by Journal of Art Historiography in the UK.

Lowry’s Lamps R������ M�����

Laurence Stephen Lowry RBA RA is mostly thought about in terms of his people and their industrial setting but there is a great deal more to be read from the detail of his paintings. Th roughout his artistic career, Lowry used street furniture to brilliant eff ect. He was a master of observation and composition. Lamp posts, telegraph poles, fl ag poles, fences (and sometimes just vertical posts with no apparent use) form an important part of Lowry’s busy industrial scenes. Th e evidence of Lowry’s careful thought about lamps and lamp posts is evident in his response to young artists asking for career advice: ‘no need to go to London to become a famous painter. You won’t fi nd better lamp posts there.’ Th is book examines an important aspect of Lowry’s art for the fi rst time. It is written by Richard Mayson, who was brought up in Lowry’s home-village of Mottram-in-Longdendale. Mayson has a life-long passion for street lamps and street furniture. He compares the treatment of street furniture in Lowry’s paintings to the reality of Salford and Manchester streets from 1916 to the 1970s, illustrating how Lowry’s work evolved.

Once the steel storm of the industrial war had passed, the idyllic Flanders Fields region in Belgium was left as a desolate moon landscape. Th e First World War had wiped dozens of villages and cities completely off the map. Th e fi elds had been destroyed by grenades, mine craters, scrap, trenches, bunkers, railways and infrastructure of the war machine. But Flanders Fields rose again, like a Phoenix from the ashes. Even before the end of the war, the fi rst people returned to their previous homes. A traditional architecture was supposed to remove all traces from the war and restore the former beauty of the area. With the fi rst fairs and processions from 1919 onwards, the social fabric started to heal. Pilgrims started to come from all the corners of the earth to visit the many memorials and cemeteries. By the end of the twenties the reconstruction was largely fi nished. It is this post-war reconstruction that continues to defi ne the characteristics of the region to this very day. Th is book has been published to commemorate the centenary of the recovery as guide for iconic sites of reconstruction, thematic exhibitions, public events, and walking and cycle routes that will take you to many striking sites of the reconstruction in the Westhoek. It also contains an historical overview of the revival of a region so heavily scourged by the Great War and new insights a century on.
