Each of these old boroughs has their own unique Blitz stories – some tragic, some extremely sad and some even funny.  On that first raid, Bermondsey’s own Surrey Docks was one of the intended targets for the Luftwaffe. Twelve hours later, Surrey Docks was a smouldering ruin with many of its inhabitants made homeless, jobless, and others injured or killed. On 7 September, it was also the scene of several extremely brave Civil Defence actions resulting in gallantry awards.  On the night of 7\/8 September 1940, nearly 150 of the three boroughs’ citizens had been killed. This was the start of what became known as the ‘Night Blitz’, lasting through to May 1941. At the end of this period, this total had risen to nearly 2,000. Prior to the start of the Night Blitz, young boys had been marvelling at the dogfights over North Kent between the RAF and the Luftwaffe. Now this was a different war; the homes and streets of London were the new front line. With their ‘never surrender’ attitude, the population were the new front-line troops.  Through the eyes and words of the three borough’s inhabitants and local research, this book takes the reader through the Night Blitz, the Nuisance Raids, the Baby Blitz and the V-Weapon attacks. It is also a testament to those who ‘endured’ in the old boroughs of Southwark.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50298453754129,"sku":"GOR009508654","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1445656159.jpg?v=1761213720"},{"product_id":"rethinking-everything-book-neil-bright-9781475808797","title":"Rethinking Everything","description":"If fewer things in life are more common than talented people who are unsuccessful, it is equally true that fewer things in life are more common than otherwise healthy people making themselves miserable.    Combining widely-accepted concepts of human behavior with elements from Rational Emotive Therapy, Positive Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, and most prominently Transactional Analysis, Rethinking Everything explores in immediately understandable terms why we act as we do, how we frequently undermine our relationships, why we often cripple our potential, and how we can take greater control of our lives.    By providing the language, real-life examples, and behavioral explanations to label, recognize, and examine dysfunctional conduct, Rethinking Everything empowers an awareness-inspired journey towards self-improvement.  To that end, the expectation is not for readers of this book to save the world, but rather for those internalizing its       insights to rethink everything in saving their own more personal universe.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50384715022609,"sku":"CIN1475808798G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1475808798.jpg?v=1751178650"},{"product_id":"those-who-can-book-neil-bright-9781475801453","title":"Those Who Can","description":"In any endeavor, it is difficult to know what excellence is without knowing what excellence looks like. Linking theory and practice, Those Who Can: Why Master Teachers Do What They Do illustrates what instructional excellence looks like by detailing what elite instructors do and as importantly, why their pedagogical choices lead to uncommonly good student results. Thoughtfully written, clearly explained, and thoroughly researched by a master educator with more than four decades of public school experience, Those Who Can provides school administrators, education students, and teachers of all experience levels with a no-nonsense practical blueprint indicating what instructional strategies promote learning, what approaches undermine learner performance, and the behavioral principles underlying both outcomes. In demystifying the so-called art of instruction, the approaches outlined in Those Who Can will improve student achievement with little investment other than the time it takes to read the book, the courage to implement its concepts, and an open-minded willingness to challenge the educational status quo of what is for the instructional promise of what could be.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50406838927633,"sku":"CIN1475801459VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52455647576337,"sku":"NLS9781475801453","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53010032754961,"sku":"NIN9781475801453","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1475801459.jpg?v=1754286943"},{"product_id":"rethinking-everything-book-neil-bright-9781475842852","title":"Rethinking Everything","description":"Combining widely-accepted concepts of human behavior with elements from Rational Emotive Therapy, Positive Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, and most prominently Transactional Analysis, the second edition of Rethinking Everything explores in immediately understandable terms why we act as we do, how we frequently undermine our relationships, why we often cripple our potential, and how we can take greater control of our lives.
