Legendary breakfasts to fuel days on the mountain; inventive, zesty salads and indulgent and luxurious cakes – these are all hallmarks of Aviemore's Mountain Cafe. Owner-chef Kirsten Gilmour draws on her Kiwi roots to turn out contemporary dishes with an antipodean love of fresh and bold favours, and in her debut cookbook she shares her secrets and inspirations with you. The Mountain Cafe Cookbook is packed full of Kirsten's irresistible recipes for the best-loved dishes and drinks at her Highland restaurant, alongside others drawn from her grandparents and infuenced by her travels around the world. This is not diffcult, fancy restaurant cooking, but gutsy, fresh, hearty food that will taste just as good from your kitchen as from hers. With vibrant photography by Paul Masson, The Mountain Cafe Cookbook has over 130 recipes including everything from Smoked Fish Chowder, Cider Sage Barbecue Chicken, Sloe Gin & Bramble Salmon Salad and Butternut Chilli & Coconut Fritters to Chocolate & Coconut Brioche, Cardamom Oranges, Badass Brownies and Passionfruit Melting Moments. All delicious and bursting with favour. “A great big hug of a book, full of exciting favours and reliable recipes.” Sue Lawrence “Kirsten has been serving her Kiwi inspired food for many years and here she shares her secrets for those delicious breakfasts, meals, cakes and drinks. As a fellow NZ’er I’m proud of her achievements!” Peter Gordon

Rose Taylor, Nee Broughton was born on the West Coast in 1899. In the Grey Valley between Greymouth and Reefton her father had cleared land and made a farm. Rose lived her last fifty years in Wellington. Her house in Kelburn catered for humble and distinguished alike - among them an opium addict, pacifists, musicians, philosophers, friends, family and neighbours. Many returned again and again, for cups of tea, for meals or to stay. She could never resist the challenge of a journey, in New Zealand or abroad. Nevertheless, like her four sisters, Rose was always a Coast girl at heart.

Peter Bellis carved his name into lawn bowls legend with his famous "perfect bowl", the last chance come-from-behind toucher that won him the world singles title over local Scottich hero Willie Wood in Aberdeen. In Perfect Bowls Belliss expounds on the training, strategy and tactics that produced not only that incredible winning shot, but took him to further world titles in the pairs and triples. As resident professional at the Cabramatta club in Sydney, Australia, Belliss continues to reign as a giant in the world game. Still relatively young for a bowler, his best is perhaps yet to come. Revealing all the keys to Belliss's extraordinary success at the highest levels of the game, Perfect Bowls is a must for every bowler, regardless of age or ability.

In 1894, Ruth Smythers, ‘Beloved wife of The Reverend L. D. Smythers’, wrote:  ‘One cardinal rule of marriage should never be forgotten: give little, give seldom and, above all, give grudgingly…’  The Methodist wife didn’t intend to be amusing, but this brief treatise written for young brides is side-splitting today and an eye-opener to how our love lives have changed in just over a century.
