Inspired by an original text, Leaves from a Madeira Garden,  first published in 1909, this modern-day exploration of Madeira compares  and contrasts the Island’s expansion and history. In 1909, Sir Charles  Thomas-Stanford described his title as “a trivial story of an uneventful  winter”, however, we discover he enjoyed four-month stays on the Island  over many years, and was enamoured with this unique idyll. The same is  true for visitors in the present day.   New Leaves from a Madeira Garden highlights much of the  Island’s development over the past 100 years (a century of remarkable  change), as seen through the eyes of these two visitors. Both came to  the Island for long winter breaks, and the two impressions make for a  remarkable, satisfying, and entertaining contrast that will fascinate  and captivate tourists and islanders alike.   Content covers Funchal, the mountains, plus numerous other parts of  the island, the influx of British visitors over the years, the political  and social changes that Madeira has experienced, holy days and  holidays, and – of course – the world-famous gardens.   Review “What a brilliant idea to take an old, out-of-print book – over a  hundred years old – and follow its author’s structure only to add your  own insights, memories, and descriptions of the incomparable Madeira.  This island paradise, as viewed by two highly-talented authors, a  hundred years apart, is uniquely described in ways that any visitors,  residents, or long-time guests can enjoy.” Harry van Bommel  The author Tony Powell was called to the Bar having  graduated with an honours degree in law from the University of London.  Having spent his working life in shipping and marine insurance, he now  divides his time between the UK and Madeira.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49743256781073,"sku":"NGR9781914066191","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50536442691857,"sku":"GOR013048633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51254146040081,"sku":"GOR014209218","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1914066197.jpg?v=1750965065"},{"product_id":"tudor-reigate-book-tony-powell-9780953753246","title":"Tudor Reigate","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50105222005009,"sku":"GOR007426862","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50120917385489,"sku":"GOR005832833","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50798421967121,"sku":"GOR014076326","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0953753247.jpg?v=1751013510"},{"product_id":"it-s-all-his-her-fault-book-tony-powell-9780578370125","title":"It's All His\/Her Fault","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51003845935377,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51003850260753,"sku":"NIN9780578370125","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0578370123.jpg?v=1750742845"},{"product_id":"international-simulation-and-gaming-research-yearbook-book-tony-powell-9780367605179","title":"International Simulation and Gaming Research Yearbook","description":"The theme of this volume is emergency and crisis management and how games and simulations are effective tools in dealing with these issues.
