This unique publication presents to the reader an exceptional collection of some 450 examples of the finest handmade woodwork of the twentieth century. Almost 200 designer-makers are represented, providing a gallery of superbly crafted work including furniture, sculpture, turnery, gazebos and conservatories, toys and automata, musical instruments, decorative boxes, marquetry, and other wood ware such as carved love spoons, lace bobbins and jewelry. Thumb-nail sketches give penetrating insights into the designers' philosophies to their work and aspirations for the future. Through the text one becomes aware of the very real dedication, care, and concern this rare breed of craftsmen have between them, not only for their own satisfaction of knowing that they are producing fine quality work but also for us - their customers - that we are getting the best in craftsmanship and design. This is an important work of reference for interior designers, homemakers and all wood enthusiasts, as well as a delightful book to read or browse through at leisure. To complete the book a list of designer-makers' names and addresses appears in the index. Illustrated in colour and black and white.

This illustrated text celebrates a range of specialist crafts practised all over the country. From the more familiar butler and book binder to reed harvester, coppicer, duck breeder and Lord's dinner lady, it seeks to capture the atmosphere of Britain away from the fast pace of urban life. The Lord's dinner lady, for example, has worked at the MCC since 1961, and has received an honorary MBE for her services to cricket and cricketers. She admits to keeping the men in line because she likes the discipline, and has fed her appreciative guests with roast dinners and carbohydrate-rich teas for three decades. Other crafts have been laboriously learned and are painstakingly practised, and some of these cases record the last few practitioners of certain crafts. It includes a comprehensive index of addresses and phone numbers of the treasures and relevant craft organizations.

This book provides a twenty-first century perspective on Roman Britain, combining current approaches with the wealth of archaeological material from the province. This volume introduces the history of research into the province and the cultural changes at the beginning and end of the Roman period. The majority of the chapters are thematic, dealing with issues relating to the people of the province, their identities and ways of life. Further chapters consider the characteristics of the province they lived in, such as the economy, and settlement patterns. This Handbook reflects the new approaches being developed in Roman archaeology, and demonstrates why the study of Roman Britain has become one of the most dynamic areas of archaeology. The book will be useful for academics and students interested in Roman Britain.

The first volume of the Directory of World Cinema: Britain provided an overview of British cinema from its earliest days to the present. In this, the second volume, the contributors focus on specific periods and trace the evolutions of individual genres and directors. A complementary edition rather than an update of its predecessor, the book offers essays on war and family films, as well as on LGBT cinema and representations of disability in British films. Contributors consider established British directors such as Ken Loach and Danny Boyle as well as newcomer Ben Wheatley, who directed the fabulously strange A Field in England. This volume also shines the spotlight on the British Film Institute and its role in funding, preservation, and education in relation to British cinema. A must read for any fan of film, the history of the United Kingdom, or international artistic traditions, Directory of World Cinema: Britain 2 will find an appreciative audience both within and outside academia.
