Ingenuity through history, By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: The Colour Encyclopedia of Incredible Aeroplanes (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book. Well bound to accomodate the extensive number of pages, and made to look like something that's been on your bookshelf for some time. For any aviation enthuiast it's a great read and features many forgotten gems of creativity from this fast evolving and innovative industry. The plates for each aircraft are of very good quality and the accompanying notes feature a brief background to each model. Many idiosyncratic pieces of trivia are also featured. Highly recommended.

Pretty good., By
This review is from: The Colour Encyclopedia of Incredible Aeroplanes (Hardcover)
I bought the book as a gift and the recipient was reasonably happy with it. The content is pretty good with lots of information and pictures but I was slightly disappointed by the cover - the hardback cover is good however, the centre image of an aeroplane is simply a sticker placed on a recessed area which in my case, had been stuck on at an odd angle, crossing between the recessed and raised parts of the cover. This looks a bit tacky - I would have expected better quality control from a DK book.Overall, pretty good though - I'd hope my grievance with the quality is the exception.
Great little buy!,
This review is from: The Colour Encyclopedia of Incredible Aeroplanes (Paperback)
I bought this as a present for my Father, he read it from cover to cover the same day. If you have a keen pilot or ex pilot or someone just interested in planes, this is simply lovely stocking filler..

 Somehow, it's never easy. Even if there's an even number of you. Even if everyone has the same meal. And the same drinks. Even the tip can make things complicated.

| Trending: Hardbacks vs e-books: the sequel | ||
 In the world of journalism it's called a "reverse ferret" - a story breathlessly announcing that Black is White, just 24 hours after confidently asserting that Black is Black. In the genteel environs of publishing, it's a volte-face. Whatever it is, James Daunt, owner of Daunt Books and managing director of the Waterstones chain, executed a classic twirl at the weekend.

We love flavorwire.com's new collection of "extremely silly photos of extremely serious writers", which shows that even Nobel Prize-winners kick back and let their hair down from time to time.

| Invisible Ink: No 124 - Hans Fallada | ||
|
His pen-name was created from two characters in Grimm's fairy tales, but his novels had little in common with the moralistic fantasies of mittel-Europe. Rudolf Ditzen was a magistrate's son, raised in Berlin and immersed in Dickens, Flaubert and Dostoevsky. He became one of the greatest German authors of the 20th century, but was not translated into English until 2009.

| The curious world of Norton Juster | ||
 Some people are very easy to interview. Norton Juster is not one of them. He's delightful and articulate, but listening to the recording of our time together, it's striking how much more interesting his answers are than my questions. So our conversation entirely failed to resolve classics such as "Where did the idea for your book come from?" and ended up instead about vocational education, bipolar disorder, obscure Edwardian ghost-story writers, C P Snow, synaesthesia and the walks Juster used to take with his older brother. In some respects, it's hardly surprising; Juster has been giving interviews about his children's classic The Phantom Tollbooth for half a century, so might be forgiven for wanting his conversations to roam elsewhere.

| How Aharon Appelfeld chronicled the Holocaust | ||
 Blooms of Darkness, in Green's graceful, grave and irresistibly readable English version, tells the story of Hugo, a young Jewish boy in an occupied town in eastern Europe who loses his parents to the camps but stays alive thanks to the shelter and salvation offered him by a local prostitute, Mariana. It extends and deepens one of the most remarkable journeys in all modern literature. In a prolific career whose highlights include novels such as Badenheim 1939, Tzili, The Immortal Bartfuss and The Iron Tracks, as well as the memoir The Story of a Life, Appelfeld has interrogated the meaning of what happened to him, to his community, and to humanity itself, during Europe's era of genocide.

| Gwendoline Riley: A portrait of the artist as a brooding young woman... | ||
 Gwendoline Riley was finishing her first novel at the age that most of us were sleeping in, bunking off, or congregating around a pint at the student union bar. Turning her university dissertation into her debut, Cold Water (2002) she signed a two-book deal at the age of 22. Since then, she has accumulated a hipster-ish following and several literary awards (Somerset Maugham Award, the Betty Trask Award, a John Llewellyn-Rhys Memorial prize shortlisted nomination).
