Third Light Press occasionally publishes Kindle versions of history and historical fiction (and one collection of Augusta Webster's poetry). We look for neglected books that we think someone might want to read again. We're often wrong about that.
Nuno has been manager for both West Ham's away wins this season but has only won one. Before today he was in charge at Forest when they lost 3-0 at home to West Ham.

The US government is now freely killing people at sea, in other lands, and on its own streets.
It is difficult to see what more is needed for Congress and the Supreme Court to exercise their constitutional duty to check and balance what is now a rogue state abroad and a gangster state at home.
