They each find their way to a shadowy community on the fringes of the growing city, where they uncover a craven political conspiracy bound up with a criminal enterprise that is stunning in its depravity.

Book excerpt: A splendid book . . . I can’t think of anyone I know who wouldn’t benefit from reading it' - Marcus Berkmann, Daily Mail 'A brilliant, brilliant book' - Chris Evans, Virgin Radio Now including a new chapter on coping with a pandemic. What is the connection between crawling through a jungle and your ‘to do’ list? What can ejecting out of a stealth bomber teach you about the getting through a pandemic? What can surviving in extreme situations teach us about surviving everyday life? John Hudson, Chief Survival Instructor to the British Military, knows what it takes to survive. Combining first-hand experience with twenty years of studying the choices people have made under the most extreme pressure, How to Survive is a lifetime’s worth of wisdom about how to apply the principles of survival to everyday life. The cornerstone of military survival (surviving anything) is understanding the relationship between effort, hope and goals – a mindset that can be transposed anytime, anywhere. In How to Survive you will learn how this template for survival can be applied to any situation in your everyday life. Through gripping first-hand accounts of near disaster and survival stories from across the extreme world you will learn that by following these principles you can develop the mindset that will allow you to make better decisions under pressure, which are as equally applicable to first dates and presentations as to climbing Everest and getting lost at sea. 'When it comes to survival and getting out of trouble, listen to this man. John is the real deal' - Levison Wood

Download or read book All That Heaven Allows written by Mark Griffin and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Paints a vivid portrait of a man who lived a double life in order to maintain his status as a movie star. . . . Candid but credible...a real page-turner.” —Leonard Maltin, author of Hooked on Hollywood: Discoveries from a Lifetime of Film Fandom The inspiration for the HBO® Original Documentary, Rock Hudson: All that Heaven Allowed. Rock Hudson was the ultimate movie star. The embodiment of romantic masculinity in American film throughout the ‘50s and ‘60s, he reigned supreme as the king of Hollywood. As an Oscar-nominated leading man, Hudson won acclaim for his performances in melodramas (Magnificent Obsession), western epics (Giant) and blockbuster bedroom farces (Pillow Talk). In the ‘70s and ‘80s, Hudson successfully transitioned to television with his long-running series McMillan & Wife and a recurring role on Dynasty. The Hollywood icon appeared to have it all. Yet beneath the star persona, there was a deeply conflicted human being. Growing up poor in Winnetka, Illinois, Hudson was abandoned by his father, abused by an alcoholic stepfather, and controlled by his domineering mother. Despite the obstacles, Hudson was determined to become an actor. After signing with agent Henry Willson, Hudson was transformed from a tongue-tied truck driver into Universal Studio’s resident Adonis. But Hudson’s wholesome screen image was at odds with his closeted homosexuality. Because of his secret gay relationships, Hudson was continually threatened with public exposure. In 1985 the public learned that the actor was battling AIDS, a disclosure that focused worldwide attention on the epidemic. Drawing on more than 100 interviews, All That Heaven Allows delivers a complete and nuanced portrait of one of the most fascinating stars in cinema history. “Provides trenchant cinematic insight and social criticism.” —Library Journal, starred review “Engrossing.” —Kirkus Reviews
