Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Henry Rider Haggard was born in Norfolk in 1856. His post of junior secretary to the Lieutenant-Governor of Natal, Sir Henry Bulwer meant that he travelled and he spent six years in South Africa . Haggard was bet by his brother that he could not write as good a novel as Stevenson's Treasure Island. The result of this bet was Haggard's 1885 book, King Solomon's Mines. It became a runaway bestseller so Haggard was able to leave London and concentrate on his writing. He published She in 1887. Andrew Lang thought She was ¿one of the most astonishing romances I ever read. The more impossible it is, the better you do it, till it seems like a story from the literature of another planet'. Haggard died in 1925. 352 pp. Deutsch.

Neuware - WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY SIMON CALLOWIn 1939, as Europe approaches war, Isherwood, an instinctive pacifist, travels west to California, seeking a new set of beliefs to replace the failed Leftism of the thirties. There he meets Swami Prabhavananda, a Hindu monk, who will become his spiritual guide for the next thirty-seven years. Late-night drinking sessions, free love, and the glamour of writing for the Hollywood studios alternate with meditation, abstinence and the study of religious texts in a compelling tug of war between worldliness and holiness.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Ms Cupcake originally hails from Canada and describes her baking as classic North American with a British flavour twist. Her unique recipes contain no animal products and are entirely vegan. She began baking from home when she couldn¿t find indulgent bakery goods for vegans in London, but soon realised it wasn¿t just vegans she could cater for, but also those allergic to foods like eggs and milk, and those that don't eat certain things for religious reasons. She opened London¿s first entirely vegan retail bakery in April 2011 and was named the Baking Industry Awards Rising Star of 2011. Ms Cupcake appeared on ITV¿s Britain¿s Best Bakery and writes a regular column for British Baker Magazine. This is her first book.
