This is the revised and updated edition of The Pussers Cook BookrecipesDitstidbitsfactsmemoriesThe Pussers Cook Book contains many of the most popular and loved traditional dishes served in the Royal Navy's Galleys from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s. Some of these dishes are being served on the ships and shore bases of today's modern navy, although some have been slightly altered and others given, let's say, more politically correct names. Woven between the recipes in this book are true facts and tidbits about the food, the cooks and general life aboard ship. Along with the recipes, this book aims to preserve a segment of British history, Royal Navy social history, which is fading all too quickly and would otherwise be lost in the grey sea-mists of oblivion.

Hockey families that need consideration include: Gordie Howe and his sons Mark Howe and Marty Howe; Montreal Canadiens' legends Maurice "Rocket" Richard and his brother Henri Richard; Chicago Black Hawks stars Bobby Hull and his brother Dennis, and Bobby's son Brett Hull; Frank Mahovlich and his brother Peter Mahovlich also warrant consideration. Modern era families such as Eric Staal and his brothers Marc, Jordan and Jared must receive some consideration. There are many others including the Patricks, the Sutters who could all be added to the list of contenders for the title of hockey's royal family. When one takes the time to consider the number of families who have sent more than one member to the NHL, the impact of these brothers, or fathers and sons, has been significant upon the history of this great game. But there is one family whose contributions to the great game of ice hockey stands above even this list of great hockey families. However, there can only be one Royal Family of Hockey, the Conachers.

Lionel Conacher's multi-sport achievements were recognized in 1950 when was named Canada's Athlete of the First Half Century. The Conachers were not just goal scorers, Lionel and his nephew Murray Henderson were defensemen; Roy and his nephew Pete were smooth-skating forwards who finessed their way to the net; Charlie was a power forward who led the league in scoring primarily because of his booming shot; and Brian was primarily a defensive-minded forward with a knack for scoring key goals. As the pages of this book illustrate, the exploits of Lionel, Charlie, Roy and Bert as well as their sons Pete and Brian and their nephew Murray Henderson, there never has been a family who dominated the history of this great game like the Conachers Paul White is a long time hockey historian and sports biographer.

Jodocus Badius Ascensius (1462-1535) was a scholar and printer who played a central role in the flourishing of humanism and print culture in the French Renaissance. In a career spanning four decades, he was involved with the print publication of something approaching one thousand editions. He was known for the 'familiar' commentaries he wrote and published as introductions to the major authors of Latin (and, less frequently, Greek) antiquity, as well as on texts by medieval and contemporary authors. His commentaries and prefaces document the early stages of French humanism, and his texts played a major role in forming the minds of future generations. This book provides an account of Badius's contributions to pedagogy, scholarship, printing and humanist culture. Its main focus is on Latin language commentaries on classical texts. It examines Badius's multiple roles in the light of changing conceptions of textual culture during the Renaissance. It also explores the wider context of the communities with which Badius cultivated relationships: scholars and printers, figures from religious orders, the university and officialdom. It considers the readerships for which Badius produced texts in France, England, Scotland, the Low Countries, and beyond. It explores the ways in which humanists understood the circulation of knowledge in terms of economy and commerce, and their conceptualisations of commentary as a site of cultural mediation.
