A STABLE FULL OF WINNERS>Whether it's a jockey with a big secret, a trainer with a masterful coup in mind, or a major auction house determined to stop the march of technology, these stories run their race and are winners... The surprises and twists keep coming in these short tales of British betting, racehorses, jockeys, owners, and trainers. A Stable Full Of Winners is a collection of short stories from best-selling horse racing storyteller, Richard Laws. Author of The Syndicate Manager, An Old-Fashioned Coup, and A Run For Your Money. PRAISE FOR PREVIOUS RACING STORIES BY RICHARD LAWS: - Great story with many twists & turns. Well written, pacey with a strong cast of characters. - The sort of book John Francombe & Dick Francis wished they had succeeded in writing. Such a very, very clever plot and engaging characters that one can identify with... - A good fast-paced story, the villains were totally impossible to guess from earlier in the book. I read a lot of crime thrillers including racing ones by the likes of Dick and Felix Francis, John Francome etc. This was as good as any of those. - An affirmed longstanding Dick Francis reader I am converting to Laws with each and every publication.

Without Delay is aimed at providing Rail O&M Managers, Network Owners, Rail Planners, Project Proponents and Regulators a structured description of the lessons I have learned over a 40 year career. It highlights the many insights, reflections and methodologies which I wish I had been taught and not had to learn for myself. Sir Isaac Newton said that "if he had seen further than the rest it is because he stood on the shoulders of giants". I am not a giant but I hope that any reader will be able to "see further" as a consequence of reading the book. I would have appreciated having such a reference throughout my career. The book considers both cultural and technical aspects of Rail Management and is aimed at helping Rail Managers to deliver greater value and lower risk to customers, Boards, Network Owners and the taxpayers.

Silkscreen Is Easy by The Little Friends of Printmaking includes a foreword by JW Buchanan, an interview with Chris Jalufka and an afterword by John Foster. Published on the occasion of the exhibition The Little Friends of Printmaking: Silkscreen Is Easy at General Projects from June 26 to August 22, 2021. Portions of the interview with Chris Jalufka were first published on eviltender.com and are reprinted here with permission. Additional photography by Linnea Bullion, Pat Castaldo, Yannick Grandmont, and Eric Nakamura. "HEY! DID YOU KNOW: "Silkscreen is Easy!" Or, anyway, that's its reputation among snooty printmaker types (sorry to snooty printmaker types) who've never picked up a squeegee in their life. REAL HEADS KNOW that silkscreen is complicated and physically grueling. Anything and everything can go wrong; you're walking a knife's edge; your back is killing you, and-Whoops, now the ink is dry! Time to wash out or print off endlessly. Silkscreen is hell, and yet I love it and it's also better than anything else and please don't ask me to reconcile these disparate facts."--JW Buchanan
