Brewed in Canada
Winner of the 2002 North American Guild of Beer Writers' Quill & Tankard Annual Writing Award The Canadian brewing industry predates Confederation by two hundred years; Canada boasts the oldest, continuously operating brewery in North America. Canadian brewers have survived the persecution of the Temperance Movement and Prohibition, the Great Depression, two World Wars and the challenge of Free Trade. Today, brewing in Canada is a 10 billion dollar business whose one constant is change. From its colonial past to the microbrewery renaissance, Brewed in Canada is a passionate narrative of individual power, colourful characters, family rivalries and foreign ownership. Individual stories tell of personal success and failure, bankruptcies, takeovers, consolidation and rationalization. As men of influence, these brewers made significant contributions to their local communities and the country. Beyond the day-to-day operation of their brewing business, some would make their mark in politics, while others built churches, hospitals and helped establish universities. A commitment to community service - and to brewing excellence - continues today.
Superstar DJs Here We Go!
"It was about larging it. It was about pulling out a wad of 20s when you were buying your champagne at the bar. It was about buying your cocaine in an eight ball. It was about wearing designer clothes. At that top tier of that club scene, it was about giving it loads." With a foreword by music journalist, Miranda Sawyer, Superstar DJs Here We Go! is the full, unexpurgated story of the biggest pop culture phenomenon of the 1990s: the rise and fall of the superstar DJ. During the 1990s big names such as Sasha, Jeremy Healy, Fatboy Slim, Dave Seaman, Nicky Holloway, Judge Jules, and Pete Tong exploded out of acid house, becoming international jetsetters, flying all over the world just to play a...
Discombobulated
"It was only the warm up night, but long ago I lost the ability to set my disco dial to moderate lunacy or even slight mayhem; long ago that switch snapped and now I'm stuck permanently on DISCO BONKERS." From Las Vegas to Moscow, New York to Shanghai, DISCOMBOBULATED features fifty unbelievably true tales of high living and low-cost slumming, with a celebrity cast featuring Kylie Minogue, Take That, Paul Oakenfold, Fatboy Slim, Coolio, gangster Dave Courtney and many more. Revered clubbing correspondent Simon A. Morrison (DJmag, Ministry of Sound) takes readers on a pocket-sized, decade-spanning tour of the nightlife of five continents, bringing together the snappiest, wittiest and hippest dispatches of the last eight years, to make one of the classic books of the clubbing generation.

Excess All Areas
Excess All Areas is the outrageous, larger-than-life autobiography of Dave Beer - DJ, punk, promoter, artist, spiritual seeker, and founder of Leeds' legendary Back To Basics, the longest-running weekly club night in the world. Named The King of Clubs by Mixmag and 'a purveyor of good times' (his actual passport job title), Dave helped launch the careers of Daft Punk and Basement Jaxx while remixing for David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Chrissie Hynde and more. Surviving car crashes, 14 days in a coma, the death of his closest friend and full-blown out-of-body experiences, Dave took partying to bacchanalian extremes, making Keith Richards look like Cliff Richard - all while impeccably dressed in Vivienne Westwood. But at its heart, this is more than a tale of sex, drugs and acid house. The Chemical Genera'zen movement wasn't just about bass it was a spiritual awakening. For Dave, music became a divine message, a vibration that transformed his life. This is a memoir of madness and magic, of punk and peace, of thoughts made real. And it proves that even on the road of excess, you can find wisdom - it just takes a little longer.

Eighty Dollars to Stamford
In the daily life of a New York cabdriver almost anything is possible, but what happened to David Marks was a horror story that could only have been devised by a master villain, one who combined brilliance with desperation. David Marks, twenty-eight, the bereaved father of two young boys, taught English by day in a junior high school. At night he moonlighted by driving a cab through the streets of New York City, still filled with grief over the death a few months earlier of his young wife. The story began with an act of chivalry, or so he regarded it. On a moonlight night in spring he is hailed by a beautiful girl who asks him to take her to Stamford, Connecticut. If he would get her there b...
