      The Biography of Edward de Bono. Breaking Out of the Box
    • Born into the bleak industrial heartland of Tyneside in 1906, an illegitimate child, with the courage to escape and discover her true self, denies her people, reaches rock bottom, and then writes her way back into their hearts as Catherine Cookson, the multi-million-selling writer. Illustrated with 30 striking personal photographs, this is the REAL Jarrow Lass, the ultimate rags-to-riches romance delivered hard-edged by folk who lived in the same street as Catherine as a child and knew first-hand the pain that hardship and alienation brings. 'A powerful story and Piers Dudgeon tells it with skill and feeling' Daily Telegraph

      'Astonishing... A fascinating and obsessively close look at one of the great rags-to-riches stories of our time.' Sunday Express From working-class dreamer on the cobbled streets of Yorkshire to one of the world's most successful authors on the sweeping avenues of Manhattan, the rise of Barbara Taylor Bradford is by any standard extraordinary. In this incredible story of suffering, loss and triumph over adversity, fact and fiction proceed side by side in a unique collaboration, the first time that Taylor Bradford has participated in a memoir of any kind, and one that has turned out to be as much a revelation to her as it will certainly be to her readers. 'A woman of Real substance: the amazing story of how Barbara Taylor Bradford discovered she was the secret grandchild of a philandering aristocrat.' The Mail on Sunday 'Enthralling - a story no less gripping than any of her blockbusters.' You Magazine 'Dudgeon is a fine writer with a dogged determination to find out what makes his subject tick.' The Glasgow Herald
