Airhead: The Imperfect Art of Making News by Emily Maitlis



Airhead: The Imperfect Art of Making News by Emily Maitlis  

Debut

'A WONDERFULLY SANE BOOK FOR OUR UNHINGED TIMES' Simon Schama
If you think you know the news, think again.
In this behind-the-scenes, no holds barred account of life in the seconds before, during and after going on air, Emily Maitlis discloses the wrangling, bust-ups, blow-ups, pleading, last-second script-shreddings, scoops, walk-outs and unexpected love-ins that we never see on-screen.
Covering everything from the Paris terror attacks to Grenfell, #MeToo to President Clinton's love affairs, Boris Johnson, goat yoga, and interviews with everyone from Emma Thompson and Tony Blair to Donald Trump and Russell Brand, Airhead is a brilliant exposé of the moments that never make the news.

I Fought Them All: The Life and Ring Battles of Prizefighting Legend Tom Sharkey by Greg Lewis and Moira Sharkey


I Fought Them All: 
The Life and Ring Battles of Prizefighting Legend Tom Sharkey 
by Greg Lewis and Moira Sharkey





In the 1890s the fight game was changing.

The prize-fighters and bare-knuckle brawlers were disappearing as the new "scientific" boxers emerged to fight under the Marquis of Queensberry rules.

Irishman Tom Sharkey was the never-say-die fighter who bridged the gap between old and new.

Within a short time of arriving in America he took on all the top boxers of his day: his hero John L Sullivan, Gentleman Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons and the man who would become not only his greatest foe but his best friend, Jim Jeffries.

Their 25-round world title fight at Coney Island was one of the most gruelling and compelling encounters ever seen inside a ring.

I Fought Them All prints the fact and the legend, and is chocked full of the rich characters who dominated the sport and politics of the period, from Wild West gunman Wyatt Earp to Tim "Dry Dollar" Sullivan of New York's Tammany Hall.

It is the story of an Irish immigrant, a sporting celebrity who won and lost a fortune, and of a man described by the New York Times as a "ring immortal".
