Frank Turner Knihy
Frank M. Turner byl uznávaným intelektuálním historikem, který celou svou kariéru zasvětil Yale. Zanechal výraznou stopu jako badatel, učitel a mentor. Jeho práce se zaměřovala na hluboké pochopení myšlenek a jejich vývoj v historii, čímž obohatil akademickou obec a své studenty o nové pohledy. Turnerův odkaz spočívá v jeho oddanosti vzdělávání a objevování minulosti.

*The Sunday Times Bestseller* *Featuring an exclusive new chapter* On 23 September, 2005, at the Joiners Arms in Southampton, Frank Turner played his last gig with his hardcore band, Million Dead. On the laminates that listed the tour dates, the entry for 24 September simply read: 'Get a job.' Deflated, jaded and hungover, Frank returned to his hometown of Winchester without a plan for the future. All he knew was that he wanted to keep playing music. Cut to 13 April 2012, over a thousand shows later (show 1,216 to be precise), and he was headlining a sold-out gig at Wembley Arena with his band The Sleeping Souls. Told through his tour reminiscences, this is the blisteringly honest story of Frank's career from drug-fuelled house parties and the grimy club scene to filling out arenas, fans roaring every word back at him. But more than that, it is an intimate account of what it's like to spend your life constantly on the road, sleeping on floors, invariably jetlagged, all for the love of playing live music.
