Acknowledged experts on specific topics seek to explore the layered domestic and international, political, legal and moral aspects of this uniquely influential and controversial event. Contributors are: Rory O Dwyer, Michael Wheatley, Brendan OShea and Gerry White, D.G. Boyce, Francis M. Carroll, Rosemary Cullen Owens, Jerome aan de Wiel, Adrian Hardiman, Keith Jeffery, Mary McAleese, Owen McGee, Seamus Murphy and Brian P. Murphy.

Searing heat, political turmoil, revolution in popular culture: relive the scorching year of 1976 in all its glory.On the political scene, Harold Wilson abruptly resigned as prime minister; Liberal Party leader Jeremy Thorpe resigned in advance of his arrest and sensational Old Bailey trial for conspiracy and incitement to murder; and the Tories elected Milk Snatcher Margaret Thatcher as their party leader. The IRAs long-running demands for the reunification of Ireland exploded into a campaign of wholesale terrorism on the British mainland.Meanwhile, the Black Panther was finally arrested and brought to justice, and the curious case of John Stonehouse, the UKs last Postmaster General, came to its climax.Throw in the fact that Southampton defied 500:1 odds to win the FA Cup, and the irresistible rise of punk rock, triggered by the iconic moment when the Sex Pistols were let loose on an unsuspecting teatime-television audience, and 1976 proves itself a truly pendulum year that divides the old from the new - recaptured here in fully living, human detail.Inside 1976:Season-by-season account of the events of this bumper year Stories from across the UK, USA, Europe and the Soviet UnionPolitical rivalries in a Cold War era, including the early rise of Margaret Thatcher and the demise of Harold Wilson Celebrities of the era, including David Bowie, Sid James and the Sex Pistols, ABBA and the Bee Gees Massive breakthroughs in criminal justice, such as the arrest of the Black Panther, and the conclusion of the case of postmaster general John StonehouseLeaving no stone unturned and no story untold, 1976 is a book of pure nostalgia for those who lived through it, and an eyeopening experience for those who didnt: a page turner right to the end.

From the co-author of two previous Batsford lace titles comes a collection of 50 stunning lace patterns that showcase the delicate beauty of this ever-popular lace. Traditionally, the ornate braids that make up Milanese lace were used in long, convoluted floral patterns, but they are also easily adapted for use in more modern designs. This new book of patterns contains both traditional and modern examples, and the author experiments with different decorative styles - for example, Celtic lettering that is vibrant with the colours of original Celtic art, taken into a new dimension with the addition of Milanese braids. Exquisite miniatures in a Japanese style will be a challenge even for the most experienced lacemaker: the smallest patterns are not necessarily the easiest! Other patterns include flowers, scrolls, leaves and butterflies, plus some more unusual designs: dragons, a picture depicting the legend of Arion and the dolphin, and a spectacular piece featuring the mythical seven-headed Hydra. There is a good range of patterns, including both prickings and photographs of the finished pieces, suitable for abilities ranging from beginner to advanced.
