'Christianity is like a Cornish pastie. There's something in it, but sometimes it's difficult to find out what it is.' Award-winning comedian Milton Jones dissects the great pastie of faith with some short, sharp one-liners about God, the Church and being a Christian - all designed to make us think about what we believe from a completely different perspective. Includes Milton's own cartoons!

In the tradition of Mailman of the Birdsville Track, THE MAN FROM COOLIBAH details the life of outback cattle property owner, helicopter muster operator and knockabout bloke Milton Jones.\nThe youngest in a family of five, Milton Jones grew up on large properties in the outback. His father was a farm manager and so his early life was a world away from that of city kids. Milton left school in Queensland in his mid teens and moved back to the Northern Territory. Mustering was in his blood and so his first job was as a bullcatcher.\nMilton Jones is a man of his environment; tough and hardworking with a firm opinion on most things that he isn t afraid to share. The story of how he bought Coolibah Station in 1988 in cash and the way he has built up his country empire is just one element of this book. For him, wrangling crocs, mustering cattle, fighting bush fires and riding rodeo are the norm. Over 500 km away from nearest city, Darwin, his life is lived on horseback, his days ruled by the sunlight. With the help of a seasonal workforce, plus his 42 choppers and a dozen or so horses, his business musters cattle from across the territory.\nTHE MAN FROM COOLIBAH shows us what it is like to live in the never never and brings the Outback to life. For the men and women who live in Milton s world, things are changing but the harshness and beauty of the outback stays the same.

Milton Jones, the young novelist behind the simultaneously shocking honesty and gentle realism of "Diary in Denial," can be likened to an urban Charles Baudelaire or Arthur Rimbaud. A collection of prose poems in the tradition of French symbolism, each brief entry serves as a move in an ongoing chess game between an individual and his mortality. A pastiche of philosophy, Proustian recollection and lusty soliloquy, the work copies the form of a diary, complete with dated entries. "Diary in Denial: Inner Improv And What Some Would Call Poetry" is his debut collection.

Fizzing with the one-liners and surreal humour for which Milton Jones is famous, this is an authentic, hilarious story of the life of a stand-up comedian . A star of everywhere except his own home, it's hard for Jerome Stevens to balance the demands of touring with family life. The circuit is a cynical world of extremes where money talks, agents slither and audiences throw mince pies. We meet Jerome as he tries to make people laugh for a living. We follow him from the blind terror of a first open spot, to facing an audience of trained killers in the Falklands, from the trauma of live television, to being chased out of Wales by an angry mob of brewery staff. Violent bouncers, paranoid celebrities and comedy producers without a sense of humour all compete to milk the cash-cow that is comedy, each desperately trying to grab at what they think are the udders of laughter. But throughout it all, the hero's biggest critic remains his own seven-year old son. Oh, and all this is recounted while being in prison in China. This hilarious account could only be written by somebody who's been there, with many of the extraordinary characters in the book being an amalgam of the personalities and characters and oddballs found found on the comedy circuit. 'If you haven't caught up with Jones yet - do so!' Daily Mail Milton Jones is a multi-award winning comedian (including the prestigious Perrier Award) who has made numerous radio and TV appearances including The Very World of Milton Jones and Another Case of Milton Jones on BBC Radio 4.
