Digital technology is more ingrained in our daily lives than ever before, and so we need to be more aware of its risks.

How Art Is Made looks at renowned works of art from across the centuries and around the globe and asks the intriguingly simple question – how were these works actually made?

Divided into two sections – materials and methods – each chapter showcases a single work of art which demonstrates the mastery and innovative use of a single material or method, from oil paint, pastel and pencil, to woodcut, litho and impasto. Each work is presented as the centerpiece of a capsule history, while comparative works are also included to help amplify our understanding.

The book enhances the experience of looking at great works of art and guides us to a deeper understanding of how they were created and why we regard them as so important.

This beautiful, fully illustrated book presents a compendium of artworks throughout history which have been inspired by myth, fantasy and the unreal.

Artists have explored imaginary worlds and fantastical creatures for centuries, expressing the unreal and impossible, the mystical and mythical, via the medium of paint.

But what draws them to the imaginary, the uncharted and the unknown? Is it merely an escape from reality? Or are they seeking a greater understanding of the human experience, or perhaps the very meaning of life itself? With myriad styles and methods of expression, what links artists through the ages? And how have these visual flights of fancy and imagination changed over the course of time?

This is an inspiring collection for fans of myth, magic, fantasy and art history.

October 26, 2023

£28.00 • Hardcover • 336 Pages 25.4 cm H | 21 cm W

An indispensable and comprehensive guide to JRR Tolkien’s The Hobbit covering all the characters, places and objects included in the seminal book that first introduced the world of Middle Earth.

The prequel to The Lord of the Rings (1954), The Hobbit (1937) is an extraordinarily rich work that sets up the fantasy world that would be built upon at greater length in Tolkien’s later books. Peter Jackson's trilogy of films based on this single work have helped to create a new generation of Tolkien fans.

This encyclopedia includes a hundred entries spread out over seven chapters describing all the book’s characters, the places Bilbo visited, the creatures met during the journey, magical items and great legendary myths that fed Tolkien’s imagination. Just like Lord of the Rings, the adventure of Bilbo, Gandalf and the thirteen stateless dwarfs is not just a story for children. An epic wind blows over their quest and makes the dwarfs and the hobbit reach the impossible to achieve their dreams. They cross hostile lands and beat monstrous enemies, until one last desperate battle. In Tolkien’s hands, the ordinary bravery of the hobbit transcends the warrior’s heroism to oppose evil.

The Worlds of Sherlock Holmes

The Inspiration Behind the World's Greatest Detective

Andrew Lycett

Questing was Sherlock Holmes’s business. He famously adopted the latest forensic techniques, channelled the Victorian passion for enquiry, kept abreast of the key scientific breakthroughs of his age, and conducted his investigations in an enigmatic and stylised manner. And the brains behind it all was, of course, the great Arthur Conan Doyle.

Ford Bronco

The Original SUV

From the first drawings in the early 1960s to today’s uber-popular new Bronco, get the full story of Ford’s legendary SUV in this stunningly illustrated volume.

When Ford introduced the Bronco for the 1966 model year, its intent was to get a slice of the offroad and outdoor enthusiast utility market then owned by the popular Jeep CJ and International Harvester Scout. What Ford couldn’t know at the time was that it was creating a legend—a rugged, square-shouldered vehicle that would exist in its original form through 1977 and in various guises for a further 20 years, wrapping up its first life in 1996.

Will Young, more commonly known as Farmer Will, is the eccentric lamb-tending, dancing farmer who’s rocked TikTok since exploding onto the Internet in 2020.

In For the Love of Farming, Will reveals the real inner workings of his farm in the beautiful countryside of Buckinghamshire in the UK, season by season

Will Young is a sixth-generation farmer who works on his lambing farm in Buckinghamshire in the UK. He has a passion for farming and he wants more people to love farming as much as he does. Will was never forced into a farming life - he almost became a professional footballer and an accountant before he returned to his farm and decided to invest his energy in the farm that he now adores.
