John Ross, The True Story

Stephen Gray

The Picador Book of African Stories contains forty short stories from across the wide African continent, hardly any of which have been collected before. These are by the post-1980 generation of writers or were written in the last two decades. Some are firm favourites, but most are appearing in print for the first time. Over half the contents have been freshly translated into English (from Arabic, French and Portuguese) in specially commissioned new versions. Each writer appears with biographical notes. In the introduction to the collection the claim that this huge, lively continent has indeed become the home of new and inventive ways of short-story writing is presented.

This is the absorbing (and often shocking) story of the life of the most famous and best loved writer in South Africa of the first half of the twentieth century. Bosman was born in the Cape in 1905, schooled in Johannesburg and trained as a teacher, then sent to a backveld school - the people he met there and the observations he made were the source for the stories in his bestselling Mafeking Road. After a sensational trial, found guilty of murdering his step-brother in cold blood, he served his term in Pretoria Central Prison - the source of his classic Cold Stone Jug. During his years of exile in Paris and London and when he returned to South Africa to make a popular career as a sly commentator, he produced A cask of Jerepigo. Before his untimely death in 1951, he became the country's best loved humorist. In this biography Bosman's extraordinary career is reconstructed from documents and his papers, to present the most revealing and explicit portrait of South Africa's most controversial author. Gray's investigation has thrown new light on many aspects of Bosman's life - some of his outrageous actions will astound his many faithful readers. Bosman himself ) with which Gray at times paints this fuller-than-ever-before portrait of his subject.

For decades the Northern Territory's criminal law has stood at the jurisprudential frontier of Australia: grappling with a unique set of circumstances, almost entirely dominated by the situation of its Aboriginal people. This 2nd edition deals in detail with the sweeping changes introduced in 2005 by Part IIAA of the NT Criminal Code. These changes often mirror the Criminal Code (Cth), and have completely rewritten many of the NT Code's most significant provisions, including the law of murder, rape, and many serious offences against the person. The book covers procedure and all the major offences, together with public order offences and sentencing. It contains a separate chapter on Aboriginal people that deals with all the recent developments, including the Intervention, and a detailed chapter on the unique history of the Territory's criminal law.

It seems like everyone is a church-planting expert nowadays. Many are making pronoucements about what works and what doesn't; few are doing the work necessary to confirm their assumptions. Many church planting books are strong on promises and passion, but offer few facts on what does and what doesn't help church plants succeed. What are the differences between a successful church plant and a struggling one? You might be surprised! The authors surveyed 112 church plants and found some surprising data in the following areas: - Leadership ability - Financial support of the plant - Conceptual freedom for the planter - Coaching and Training - Core group - Ministries offered at launch Some of the data confirmed long-held theories. Other findings were quite surprising. This book is a must-read for any church planter.
