Det är nästan så att man är frestad att utropa ”äntligen!” på känt Nobel-manér, när Taylors & Jones korvbok nu blivit verklighet. Fastfood MagazineDet är ett smart grepp att inleda någon i frestelse. Rakt in i den. Och det är precis vad Taylor & Jones gör i sin korvbok. Västerviks-TidningenI Taylors & Jones Korvbok finns recept på hur du tillverkar drygt 40 av deras godaste korvar, t ex Italian Style Pork, Lamb Merguez, Beef and Garlic och Cumberland Style Pork. Utöver dessa finns ett 50-tal middagsrecept där korven spelar huvudrollen och du väljer själv om du använder egengjord eller köpt korv. Recept på goda tillbehör som senap, korvbröd, potatissallader och coleslaw finns också. Du får en genomgång av det du behöver veta för att tillverka korv för hemmabruk, t ex vilken utrustning du behöver, malningsgrad, tips på olika smaksättningar, förvaring och hållbarhet. Allt varvat med personliga anekdoter om hur de olika korvrecepten kom till och om andra intressanta korvmöten. Gareth Jones: ”Jag har bott här under större delen av mitt vuxna liv. Jag rör mig mer i svenska kretsar än i brittiska. Ändå lyckades jag trilla över något så brittiskt som korvtillverkning. Och då menar jag inte vilken korv som helst, utan något som är snudd på urbrittiskt – riktig handgjord korv. Bangers. Med kryddor som varje britt skulle välkomna med ett leende.” Gareth Jones kommer från Mumbles utanför Swansea i södra Wales och har arbetat som kock i olika delar av världen. David Taylor, slaktare från Moira utanför Belfast i Nordirland. David började arbeta som slaktare redan vid 15 års ålder. Kerim Akkoc, idésprutan från Hägersten i Stockholm. Utbildad kock med 20 års erfarenhet i yrket. Gareth, David och Kerim är Taylors & Jones. Till sin hjälp i boken har de haft Herman Rasmuson - kock, entreprenör och uppfinnare till bl a GarlicCard. Utsedd till Årets Speciallitteratur Råvara 2013 av Måltidsakademien. Juryns motivering:"Passionen för korv i alla former och smaker präglar denna kokbok. Dessa skarpskurna korvprofiler manar till tillverkning av korv och korvrätter i hemmet och inspirerar till hantverk, som lyfter korven in i finrummet." Att stoppa egen korv har sällan känts så lockande. Matentusiasterna Taylor och Jones har gett korven huvudrollen och skapat ett nytt smakspektrum, med inspiration från länder världen över. Caroline Elfving, Books & DreamsFörutom läckra recept på både korvar och tillbehör får vi bland annat lära oss om utrustning, malningsgrad och hållbarhet. Ica-Kuriren

Casual observers of the Welsh boxing scene might well think that the best practitioners of the sport have all hailed from the valleys and coastal cities of the south. But the rural counties have contributed their share to the nation's fistic history. In the high-profile heavyweight division alone, the area covered by this book has produced two British champions and another who contested the title. Others have worn and challenged for Lonsdale Belts at lower weights. The first British boxer ever to win a medal at the world amateur championships can be found between these covers, along with the incredible youngster who was ranked in the world's top 10 by the American Ring magazine when he was just 16 years old. This volume, packed with photographs - many published for the first time - profiles more than 50 boxers from the bare-knuckle era to stars of the present and future. It is a must-read for any fight fan, whether from Wales or further afield.

The Rhondda Valleys have always produced hard men. The descendants of those who flocked there in the nineteenth century to work in the expanding coalfield combined to form a special kind of society, in which brawn and brain were equally respected. While the famous miners' institutes nurtured the intellect, each village also had its gymnasium and these spawned some of the fight game's most famous practitioners. Jimmy Wilde was arguably the greatest British boxer of all time, while a whole nation stayed up to listen to the radio commentary of Tommy Farr's brave challenge to the legendary Joe Louis. Since this book first appeared Liam Williams has breathed new life into an old tradition. This updated and expanded volume tells the stories of Wilde and Farr, of course, but also those of more than 45 others, including Wales's forgotten world champion, Percy Jones, and two who wore the Lonsdale Belt, Tom Thomas and Llew Edwards. With 125 illustrations, many seen for the first time, this is the definitive account of Rhondda's boxing heritage and is essential reading for anyone interested in the square ring.

The historic county of Glamorgan has a proud and successful boxing heritage, as can be seen by the 50-plus boxers featured in this, the sixth volume of Gareth Jones' renowned Boxers of Wales series. Having already profiled the boxers of Cardiff, Merthyr and Pontypridd, as well as the Cynon and Rhondda valleys, in previous volumes, Gareth Jones now completes his impressive journey around the old county by focusing his attention on: Glamorgan's coastal towns, which have produced dozens of top fighters, not least the Selby brothers from Barry and one of the first Welshmen to wear a Lonsdale Belt, Port Talbot's Bill Beynon. The old mining valleys, from the Neath to the Ogmore, which have nurtured many ring warriors over the years, including the fistic hotbeds of Maesteg and nearby Caerau: home to a string of champions and contenders. Packed with more than 100 photos and illustrations, as well as decades of unrivalled boxing knowledge, The Boxers of South, West & Mid Glamorgan is essential reading for all followers of the noble art.

Are you an authentic leader? Too many companies are managed not by leaders but by mere role players and faceless bureaucrats. What would it take to replace these empty suits with real leaders--men and women who are confident in who they are and what they stand for and who truly inspire people to achieve extraordinary results? Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones argue that leaders don't become great by aspiring to a list of universal character traits. Rather, effective leaders are authentic: they deploy individual strengths to engage followers' hearts, minds, and souls. Authentic leaders are skillful at consistently being themselves, even as they alter their behavior to respond effectively to changing contexts. In short, the authors present a powerful case: that it takes "being yourself, in context, with skill" to be a successful, authentic leader--and they show you how to do exactly that. In this lively and practical book, Goffee and Jones draw from extensive research to reveal how to hone and deploy your unique leadership assets while managing the inherent tensions at the heart of successful leadership: when to show emotion and when to withhold it, how to get close to followers while maintaining an appropriate role distance, and maintaining your individuality while "conforming enough" to gain traction and lead change. Underscoring the inherently social nature of leadership, the book also explores how leaders can stay attuned to the needs and expectations of followers. Why Should Anyone Be Led by You? will forever change how we view, develop, and practice the art of leadership, wherever we live and work.

There has always been a great boxing tradition in Newport and the valleys of Monmouthshire, but recently the area has excelled itself. Over the last two decades, no fewer than four world champions have been groomed in local gyms. Robbie Regan, Gavin Rees, Nathan Cleverly and the incomparable Joe Calzaghe may be the stand-out achievers featured in this book, but they are far from the only stars remembered here. Johnny Basham and the `Maesglas Marciano’, Dick Richardson, lead the way for the city on the Usk, while there are many others who have worn the Lonsdale Belt or claimed Commonwealth Games medals. And the changing face of boxing is epitomised by Ebbw Vale girl Ashley Brace, the first woman to top a professional bill in Wales – and the first to win an international title. Some 70 boxers are pictured and profiled. Any fight fan, whether a `Gwentie’ or not, will enjoy this book.
