      <image:title>BOOKS - This is a dramatized account of the author's link to his ancestor, who was captured by Oliver Cromwell during the Scottish campaign of the Civil War, and then forced to work on Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden's Fen drainage scheme. The story continues as the prisoner from 'Caledonia', the Roman name for Scotland, settles in the eastern county of Norfolk and the Scottish name of Ferguson first appears in mid seventeenth century Fenland parish records.</image:title>

      <image:title>BOOKS</image:title>
      <image:caption>Experience the momentous events of the twentieth century in the company of Sussex aristocrat Bertie Milton, and Yorkshireman Peter Cruikshank, in this compelling and entertaining story of friendship and family life. They meet while serving in the British army. Both later work for shipping insurers Lloyds of London and are destined to travel on the ill-fated cruise liner, Titanic. Bertie disembarks in Ireland but Peter stays on board and is unaccounted for when the ship goes down, assumed drowned. Bertie’s life continues with marriage to ex-debutante Amanda. Their lively talented daughters become world famous for very different reasons. With a twist of fate other truths come to light. Why did Titanic sink on its maiden voyage with so much loss of life? Who can explain the overwhelming impact of the unexpected? Perhaps Peter Cruikshank holds the key.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Follow the dramatic story of the Descan family through the nineteen-sixties, a decade of cultural, political and social change epitomised by 'Flower Power' and the meteoric rise of a pop group from Liverpool. Patrick Descan is an enigmatic war hero with a mysterious past and business interests which are secret even to his own family. His wife Gillian, an actress deeply troubled by a dark incident in her life, desperately wants to find out how Patrick earns the money for the prosperous lifestyle enjoyed by the couple and their three children. The resurgence of the Cold War, including the U-2 spy plane incident and the appearance of the Berlin Wall, and the assassination of President John F Kennedy, leads to a catastrophic family crisis. How can it be resolved? Drawing heavily on his own remarkable experience of the nineteen-sixties the author weaves an intriguing tale of a family torn apart by world events and...boarding school... also fascinating insight into the lives of teenagers growing up in 'The Beatles decade'.</image:caption>
