The Butterflies of Britain & Ireland provides comprehensive coverage of all our resident and migratory butterflies, including the latest information on newly discovered species such as Cryptic Wood White and the Geranium Bronze. When first published in 1991 it won the Natural World Book of the Year Award and won plaudits from all quarters. Fully revised, considerably expanded and reset in 2010, it was judged that year's Guardian Nature Book of the Year. Now revised again to reflect the latest research findings, and with up-to-date distribution maps, this remarkable book is THE guide to the appearance, behaviour, life cycle and ecology of the butterflies of Britain and Ireland.

The Nation’s Gospel is a unique four-volume work describing the progress of the Christian faith in Britain since the Reformation. This is living history, relating the faith of past generations and its effect on society, which has much to teach us today. Volume 2 (1791-1900) Revolution to Revival covers the period from the dark days of the French Revolution, through the mid-19th century revival, to the beginning of the 20th century. It describes the influence of the Clapham Sect, the Primitive Methodists, the Brethren and the Salvation Army, and the expansion of evangelism in the Church of England and other denominations by a variety of means. These included education, tract distribution, family religion, open-air preaching, colporteurs, missions and social work.Woven into this story of zeal are the intellectual challenges to the Christian faith and doctrine, coming from both inside and outside the churches.
