‘Breadline Britain is a substantial piece of work, by two academics who have both played leading roles in research into UK poverty for over 30 years. Drawing on that expertise, they’ve produced a brilliant overview of the nature of poverty in the UK right now, how things have changed in recent decades, and also what we must do to tackle the problem. Most importantly, it’s a very accessible, readable book… the book is an ideal overview for anyone who wants to understand UK poverty better. It’s powerful and authoritative – I was particularly impressed by the devastating analysis of inequality and our dependence on the financial industry – whilst always remaining easy to read and follow.’

‘Andrew Lownie’s Complete Short Stories of John Buchan, first published in 1996-97, has made a welcome return via Thistle Publishing both in paperback and, joyously, in a Kindle edition… This is a gem of a work for Buchan enthusiasts. Containing all Buchan’s original short stories, each volume comes with an insightful introduction by Lownie and each story has a brief preface giving its publication history and context… This is a real work of scholarship that deserves support.’

‘So three cheers for Terrible Estate Agent Photos. They remind us all of how life really is, rather than how the real-estate profession wants it to be. Indeed, I can thoroughly recommend it as an ideal book for the bathroom.’
