An outstanding leader and personality in every respect, Poulton captained England to what is now called a 'Grand Slam' in 1914 – the last season before the First World War. Once war was declared he spent seven months training in England with his battalion of the Royal Berkshire Regiment before crossing to Belgium via France at the end of March 1915. Five weeks later he was shot dead by a sniper in the trenches, still aged only twenty-five.

Acclaimed world champions in 2003, the England rugby union team came home from the World Cup in New Zealand eight years later to the sound of silence. Their rugby was uninspiring and their reputation in tatters. Stuart Lancaster - former burger-flipper, PE teacher and the novice Saxons coach - was tasked with turning a failing team around. The transformation was astounding. Now Lancaster's side has the work ethic, humility and resolve to compare with that World Cup-winning team. Much of this is down to their coach, but with so little international experience, how did he bring about this renewal? Part biography, part examination of leadership, The House of Lancaster pulls apart the England rugby machine and looks at how it has been put together. Filled with exclusive interviews from the leading protagonists, players and coaches, as well as containing unprecedented access to Lancaster's methods, The House of Lancaster shows how the vision, personality and leaderships skills of one driven man can turn a team into genuine world-beaters. With a foreword from Sir Ian McGeechan OBE

In 1833, the English family of George Poulton set sail, intent on claiming land in Canada.Their tale of crossing New York on an Erie Canal packet boat ends in tragedy as the father dies in Lockport, leaving a wife and five young children with a claim to land no longer valid. In desperation, the mother places her two youngest children in adoptive homes and enrolls the two eldest in the Emma Willard Academy, Troy, New York. Later, one daughter marries the son of Niagara Falls architect John Latshaw and another marries Judge Thomas Dawkins who, in the waning years of the Confederacy, risks life and fortune to provide sanctuary to the South Carolina government of Andrew Magrath. Leading the family into the turn of the century is George Edward Ladshaw who partners with a brother to found Ladshaw & Ladshaw, a civil and hydraulic engineering firm that rides the wave of the burgeoning Carolina cotton mill industry. Overshadowing this success is the tragic story of the eldest Poulton child who inherits the scourge of bipolar disorder and dies in a South Carolina mental institution. Eventually, the entire family that had sailed from English shores settles in South Carolina and becomes "All Together Once More." This true story of an immigrant family in America is intertwined with a narrative of hope, despair, and success and is based upon letters, a diary and family bible, Emma Willard Academy records, family accounts, and legal documents. The book is generously illustrated and fully annotated.

Many thousands of men died during the Great War. They came from every place and class. The very cream of the Nation joined up thinking it a great adventure but, all too often, never returned. This book is dedicated to the memory of an elite few of such men the Rugby Internationals who fell in The Great War. Among the hundreds of thousands who served and died for their country were one hundred and thirty Rugby Internationals.??To place the loss of these men in perspective, it is important to appreciate that Rugby Union was, arguably, bigger in its day than soccer is today. It attracted men from every walk of life. Many became national icons just as David Beckham and Wayne Rooney are now. These were men whose names were common currency in almost every household in Britain; men who were widely admired and emulated.??Yet their physical strength, fitness, prowess and courage made these heroes no less vulnerable to enemy bullets, shells and mines than their less celebrated comrades-in-arms. One hundred years on, the Author decided that any player who perished, whether he had won a single cap for his country or a hundred, would be included within this book.??Into Touch encapsulated the magnitude of a generation's sacrifice. Thanks to the Author's research into these players' service for their country, both on the playing field and battlefield, it will fascinate all with an interest in The Great War and, most particularly, those with a love for The Glorious Game and its history.??As featured in the Cardiff Times and Derby Telegraph.

Concentrating on the Ploegsteert and Neuve Eglise sectors in Belgium, this book features stories on such well known figures as sculptor Charles Sargent Jagger, ARA; R. Poulton Palmer and 'Tanky' Turner, great friends and rugby football captains of England and Scotland respectively; as well the discovery and eventual burial of a Lancashire Fusilier who was killed in action in 1914; the research leading to the erection in 2002 of a 'Believed to be buried' headstone in the Strand cemetery of an Australian killed in action at Messines in 1917; the action in 1914 that initiated the birth of the infamous 'Birdcage' on the western edge of Ploegsteert Wood and other stories of interest to enthusiasts of the Great War. Another in the Cameos of the Western Front series on men, minor actions and battlefield sites, this book, like its predecessors is an ideal 'companion' for the battlefield visitor.
