<p>'<b>An important historical record and a well-paced story in its own right, Great-Uncle Harry is also much more than that: a tremendous act of love.' <i>Guardian<br/>___________________________________</i></b><br/><br/>From the time, many years ago, when Michael Palin first heard that his grandfather had a brother, Harry, he was determined to find out more about him.<br/><br/>The quest that followed involved hundreds of hours of painstaking detective work. Michael dug out every bit of family gossip and correspondence he could. He studied every relevant official document. He tracked down what remained of his great-uncle Harry's diaries and letters, and pored over photographs of First World War battle scenes to see whether Harry appeared in any of them. He walked the route Harry took on that fatal, final day of his life amid the mud of northern France. And as he did so, a life that had previously existed in the shadows was revealed to him.<br/><br/><i>Great-Uncle Harry </i>is an utterly compelling account of an ordinary man who led an extraordinary life. A blend of biography, history, travelogue and personal memoir this is Michael Palin at his very finest.<br/>___________________________________________<br/>PRAISE FOR EREBUS:<br/><b>'Beyond terrific.</b> I didn't want it to end.'

<p>Sinéad O&apos;Connor&apos;s voice and trademark shaved head made her famous by the age of twenty-one. Her recording of Prince&apos;s Nothing Compares 2 U made her a global icon. She outraged millions when she tore up a photograph of Pope John Paul II on American television. O&apos;Connor was unapologetic and impossible to ignore, calling out hypocrisy wherever she saw it. She has remained that way for three decades. Now, in Rememberings, O&apos;Connor tells her story - the heartache of growing up in a family falling apart; her early forays into the Dublin music scene; her adventures and misadventures in the world of sex, drugs and rock&apos;n&apos;roll; the fulfilment of being a mother; her ongoing spiritual quest - and through it all, her abiding passion for music.</p>
