Author: Geoff Armstrong
Published by: New Holland Publishers Pty Ltd (AUS)
In Stock: 1
Almost 2500 men have appeared in Test cricket, from the inaugural Test played in March 1877 to today. To reduce this task to the best 100 is an imposing task, but it is also one that is guaranteed to provoke debate among those with an eye for the game's history and its greatest players. In "The 100 Greatest Cricketers", experienced sportswriter and publisher Geoff Armstrong has compared eras, analysed career records, sifted through fact and fiction - and enjoyed much discussion and debate with colleagues and friends - to come up with a list of the best players of all time, ranked from one to 100. He has done so by selecting nine teams, and then nominated his favourite all-time player as the '100th man'. Each team includes two openers, three middle-order batsmen, an all-rounder, a wicketkeeper and four bowlers, at least one of whom is a spinner. This new, updated edition re-evaluates the previous selection, with the removal and addition ... more

Any Colour - So Long as It's Black: Designing the Model T Ford 1906-1908 order quantity

NZ$ 35.00 each
Hardback
Author: John Duncan
Published by: Exisle Publishing Ltd
In Stock: 1
Henry Ford's design of the Model T automobile between 1906 and 1908 was an extraordinary achievement. The industry was, at the time, still in an experimental phase and yet this design lasted without major change for nearly two decades. More than 15 million Model Ts were built: performance and price gave the car an edge. In this sense they were "popular", yet owners were apologetic about owning one. Mr Ford had the audacity to provide the car people needed, not the car they wanted.

The reasons for the car's success can be found in the details of the mechanical design. There is a vast amount of technical literature available for the expert or the enthusiast and there are 20,000 Model Ts still on the road. This book provides a concise and fresh look at the design 100 years later. It is not an engineering treatise or an owner's manual; the aim is to get inside the mind of Henry Ford and to explain the design features that accounted for ... more

Paperback
Author: Andrew Flintoff
Published by: Hodder Paperback
In Stock: 1
'Freddie' Flintoff is perhaps the best-known cricketer in the world. Widely considered the greatest English all-rounder since Ian Botham, Flintoff is currently the most effective fast-bowler in the England side, and can also totally dominate with the bat -- bars at cricket grounds immediately empty the moment he approaches the wicket. It was victory in the 2005 Ashes series that cemented Flintoff's place at the nation's heart, with his stunning performances helping ensure the Ashes were regained for the first time in eighteen years. ASHES TO ASHES is the story of the highs and lows of Flintoff's life since that sensational summer, which has been followed by both fantastic performances and cruel luck with injuries. This is the revealing and honest account of a tumultuous period in his career, describing both the joys and the disappointments Flintoff has experienced both on and off the field. After struggling with injuries for over two ... more

Author: Gregor Paul
Published by: Exisle Publishing Ltd

Since the first World Cup in 1987, the All Blacks have amassed a winning record that is far superior to any other country. Yet by the time the next World Cup rolls around in 2011, it will be 24 years since the All Blacks have been world champions. How can that be? This very readable book draws some provocative conclusions on why New Zealand no longer produces great leaders and why rugby remains such an important part of the national psyche. Part travel guide, part social history and part self-help manual, it is the ideal book for all those fans who can't help steering conversations towards All Black World Cup failures.

Buck Shelford order quantity

NZ$ 40.00 each
Hardback
Author: John Matheson
Published by: HarperCollins New Zealand
In Stock: 1
When Buck Shelford was dropped as All Black captain there was a public outcry - bring back Buck - with bumper stickers and posters and graffiti to that effect springing up overnight. The popular, highly respected hard man, famous for playing on through a severe groin injury, impervious to pain because he was the captain and he wouldn't leave his men, Buck Shelford is now regarded as the ultimate All Black. In the light of the disastrous 2007 All Black World Cup campaign, the news that Buck Shelford was battling cancer sent a shudder through the rugby fans who remember him and his courage and skill and strength of leadership. Those qualities will be celebrated in this tribute to one of the greatest, and most loved All Blacks.

Sources are eclectic, results mixed, but one thing is certain: car design is being forced up an ever tightening spiral of creativity. These machines are memorials of our tastes, yearnings and capabilities. They have layers of meaning and can, as Henry Ford knew, be read like a book...if only you know how. The story of the car is the story of how the objects of industry became a medium of artistic expression. This book tells that story in a series of case studies which reveal national characteristics: American flair, German technical suprematism, French vernacular chic, gorgeous Italian sculpture, English antiquarianism, Japanese ingenuity, Swedish responsibility. Cars featured appear in chronological date order from the 1908 Ford Model T to 2003 BMW 5 Series. The chosen cars will be specially photographed in a uniform style and reproduced in very textured, 4 colour b/w so as to distance this book from the clich??A?s and conventions of ... more
