HAPPY PUBLICATION day to Twenty Football Towns by HAPPY PUBLICATION day to Twenty Football Towns by Steve Leach. . Meat-and-potato pies, quirky club mascots, standing room paddocks and hyperlocal sponsors... at every local club, there is much more about ‘going to the match’ than the match itself. For many of us, the local club offers it all: passion, hope, heartache, drama. Steve Leach spends a year visiting the twenty towns and clubs that are special to him – towns and teams that may not be glamorous, but they are unique and, more importantly, they are home. .

If you’re managing to get out walking or cycling If you’re managing to get out walking or cycling this summer, or if you’re lucky enough to have lots of trees on your doorstep, then this guide is the perfect companion. It’s amazing how different walking in the countryside is when you can identify the beautiful trees that shelter your path along the way. The tree in this photo is a Rowan, which is native to Scotland and thrives in harsh environments, often seeming to grow out of bare rock. They are of value to wildlife and steeped in folklore; few other trees capture the spirit of the Scottish landscape in the same way as a rowan. .

I see this book as a call to thought and action, especially by the young, a book to pick up and dip into, to broaden debate and open minds.” Roy Dennis Cottongrass Summer is out now and available to buy from bookshops and our online shop.

We always write a wee note to say thank you to eve We always write a wee note to say thank you to everyone who orders from our online shop. We know it’s only a small gesture and we wish we could do more to show you how grateful we are. The past few months have demonstrated a cultural shift towards shopping small and local, and we hope this attitude continues. As bookshops are reopening across the UK we hope you will visit them and make the effort to support small independents. We know it will be a while till things are back to normal though, so our online shop is still open for those of you who can’t safely access independent bookshops. We love getting orders from readers and seeing what you choose. And as always, we will write a wholehearted thank you to you. . . #bookshops #bookstagram #shopsmall #supportsmallbusiness #shopindie #amreading #reopening #bookshopsareback #booksaremybag
