Book Description
According the author, this work was inspired by a comment credited to Prof. Wole Soyinka, Nigerian foremost playwright, poet, novelist, and Nobel laureate, describing the present generation of Nigeria as A WASTED GENERATION, and the activism of the Nigerian foremost and indefatigable human rights crusader, Late Chief Gani Fawehinmi. The novel is an expose of corruption in every segment of African society. It exposes the political, religious, educational, economical and moral decay and decadence in Africa. It satirizes the leadership mistrust and dissappointment.

Book Description
My generation in Eastern Europe was caught in the middle of two revolutions (1944 and 1989), which instead of moving history ahead pushed it backward. We thus at first made a U-turn-a tortuous one, to be sure-from underdeveloped capitalism to underdeveloped socialism, but because socialism and underdevelopment are strange bedfellows,we have since discovered we were on the wrong path and are trying now to return to where we started. The drama of that generation is what this book is about.

Book Description
The 1970s was a great decade for British racing drivers, but it was also the era in which the nation lost a generation of brilliant young drivers – Roger Williamson, Tony Brise and Tom Pryce – in tragic accidents. All had the potential to be World Champions. With access to their families, friends and race colleagues, David Tremayne tells their full stories in this superb book, now available in paperback. It makes for poignant but uplifting reading.

Book Description
Journalism’s Lost Generation discusses how the changes in the industry not only indicate a newspaper crisis, but also a crisis of local communities, a loss of professional skills, and a void in institutional and community knowledge emanating from newsrooms. Reinardy’s thorough and opinionated take on the transition seen in newspaper newsrooms is coupled with an examination of the journalism industry today. This text also provides a broad view of the newspaper journalism being produced today, and those who are attempting to produce it.

Book Description
Three middle-class sixth-form girls leave their independent boarding school in the summer of 1918. They are told by their headmistress that their prospects of marriage have been reduced following the Great War. Vera, determined to get the most out of life in a changing world, marries David, a wounded officer and veteran of the war. Their lives as tenant farmers are threatened by the prospect of losing their livelihoods. Against a backdrop of agricultural depression they struggle to achieve their dreams. Meanwhile Lillian, talented and attractive, finds little time for marriage during her busy career as an actress and singer. Dotty finds work as a secretary and seems destined for spinsterhood – but this is a rapidly changing world, and no-one knows what lies ahead.
