Synopsis
Millions of people are familiar with the 'East End' from television soaps and celebrity 'mockney' accents, but in this fascinating book Derek Houghton gives a colourful insight into life as a real 'East Ender'. Personal recollections and lively anecdotes are combined with a thorough social history to show a neighbourhood undergoing huge change. The memories recalled so openly by the author give a snapshot of a community characterised by contrasts. Neighbourliness and community spirit were highly valued, yet whole families often found themselves turned out onto the streets by ruthless landlords. The war provided a sudden rupture, both in the life of the author and his community. The relative peace of his time as an evacuee contrasts strongly with the destruction of Bethnal Green when the bombs rained down. The locations that provided the backdrop for Houghton's early life; the Hackney Empire, Pellicci's cafe and Kelly's Pie & Mash Shop, will be familiar to residents, and provide reference points for those just discovering the area. The stories and characters described so vividly are brought to life with a range of photographs., Both beginner and advanced aquascaping enthusiasts will delight in this aquarium plant guidebook! Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants is filled with hundreds of aquatic plants presented in an A-to-Z directory with high quality photos and profiles of each plant. Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants includes detailed information on aquatic plants, including common names, botanical designations, growth cycles, and propagation. Additionally, this book covers potential problems that can occur in an aquatic environment, such as parasites, and how to prevent them. With hundreds of color photos and illustrations, this book is both beautiful and informative! Easy to understand and beginner-friendly, the Encyclopedia of Aquarium Plants is the perfect aquascape book for you!, This heavily illustrated volume will prove a blessing to every aquarium hobbyist who has had to settle for superficial plant descriptions in general fish-keeping books. It presents a detailed A-to-Z directory covering hundreds of aquarium plants with high quality color photos and succinct profiles of each plant. Information includes the plant's common name, botanical designation, growth cycle, and general description. The book's additional sections offer details on how to grow and propagate aquatic plants, and how to protect them from parasites and other problems. This handsome volume features approximately 450 color photos and illustrations.

    3 CD set “Romantic Flute and Guitar” absolutely new, sealed, as stated in the ad. The discs were very well, securely and carefully wrapped in bubble packaging and placed in a cardboard box, as a result they were not damaged during transportation and delivery. The seller is honest and respectable. Very pleased with the purchase. Thank you very much!
