Call The Midwife: A True Story Of The East End In The 1950s - Jennifer Worth:
... separated from her children who died one by one and how she wasn't even able to attend their funerals.
The history of midwifery is touched upon in the book and although I sometimes found the terminology and descriptions of birth and ante natal care a bit graphic, it was fascinating to see how much our experiences of pregnancy and childbirth have changed over the years. Nowadays a woman who gives birth at home is a... Read the full review: Modern History Brought To Life by wigglylittleworm |

Himoff!: the Memoirs of a TV Matinee Idle - Richard Whiteley ... of the book begins with his experiences of when he was first introduced to newspapers and journalism. When he was seven and half he became a paperboy. It also tells of how he was brought up in Bradford in Yorkshire and his father was a mill owner. There was also a chapter devoted to Russell Harty who I remember watching on TV he had a chat show on a Friday night. He taught Richard english and Russell made a great impression on him. The book covers his life span from when he was a small boy right through to 2000. Entertaining us on his programme Countdown. He was famous for his gaudy jackets and lurid ties. In the book he tells us of his special relationship with Carol... Read the full review: Himoff/RICHARD WHITELEY by RUTH1957 |

On The Edge - Richard Hammond ... immediately after the chapters dealing with the crash, Mindy, his wife, took over the writing. From then on she is the one who writes about everything that happened in the hospital in those early days, which obviously makes sense, as Richard has little recall of those days. It was at that point that I really became absorbed in the book and read about 100 pages all in one go! As a wife and a mother, I really empathised with everything she had to go through from the initial phone calls, the fear that he might die, the glimmers of hope gained from every small step, but most of all facing the realisation that her husband may no longer be the same man she married. She talk... Read the full review: Just that little bloke who drives cars on the telly? by kingfisher111 |

If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B-Movie Actor - Bruce Campbell ... of the studios) making it a joyful adventure to follow as it revels in the intimacy of a 'diary of a nobody'. The inclusion of pictures from Bruce's early years, and the recent recollections of others (such as Raimi, Robert Tapert, Scott Spiegel, Josh Becker, etc) that shared these experiences make it ever more personal than most autobiographies. Indeed, one of the first things that strikes you is there is no way that these entertaining musings have been ghost written by anyone other than Bruce! The second half of 'Chins' continues in much the same style, covering aspects of the next 20 years of his career, but remains ever interesting as Bruce forgoes going into gre...
