The Midwife’s Here!: The Enchanting True Story of One of Britain’s Longest Serving Midwives
Price: FREE
What an interesting era in history. Midwives were so much needed by the community and this girl found her true vocation in life. Wonderful stories and beautifully told.
‘Delivering my first baby is a memory that will stay with me forever. Just feeling the warmth of a newborn head in your hands, that new life, there’s honestly nothing like it… I’ve since brought more than 2,200 babies into the world, and I still tingle with excitement every time.’
It’s the summer of 1968 and St Mary’s Maternity Hospital in Manchester is a place from a bygone age. It is filled with starched white hats and full skirts, steaming laundries and milk kitchens, strict curfews and bellowed commands. It is a time of homebirths, swaddling and dangerous anaesthetics. It was this world that Linda Fairley entered as a trainee midwife aged just 19 years old.
From the moment Linda delivered her first baby – racing across rain-splattered Manchester street on her trusty moped in the dead of night – Linda knew she’d found her vocation. ‘The midwife’s here!’ they always exclaimed, joined in their joyful chorus by relieved husbands, mothers, grandmothers and whoever else had found themselves in close proximity to a woman about to give birth.
Under the strict supervision of community midwife Mrs Tattershall, Linda’s gruellingly long days were spent on overcrowded wards pinning Terry nappies, making up bottles and sterilizing bedpans – and above all helping women in need. Her life was a succession of emergencies, successes and tragedies: a never-ending chain of actions which made all the difference between life and death.
There was Mrs Petty who gave birth in heartbreaking poverty; Mrs Drew who confided to Linda that the triplets she was carrying were not in fact her husband’s; and Muriel Turner, whose dangerously premature baby boy survived – against all the odds. Forty years later Linda’s passion for midwifery burns as bright as ever as she is now celebrated as one of Britain’s longest-serving midwives, still holding the lives of mothers and children in her own two hands.
Rich in period detail and told with a good dose of Manchester humour, The Midwife’s Here! is the extraordinary, heartwarming tale of a truly inspiring woman.

How to Easily Grow Organic Superfoods at Home Without a Garden
Price: FREE
I’ve read a library’s worth of books on the matter, but this book – in its brevity – packs a strong dose of digestible, instructional common sense into an economy of pages. Kudos to the author for understanding what beginners (or non-beginners who struggle) need to be more successful.
What you’ll find in this short book is the exact information you need to know to start growing healthy, delicious, and organic superfoods at home, even without a garden.
The fact is, most gardening books make the process way too complicated, and they include way too much information on all kinds of plants that you either don’t care about or are too hard to take care of.
Notice #1: This Isn’t the Most comprehensive Gardening Book that Exists… Not Even Close
What I’ve done in this book is chosen the most healthy superfoods that are the easiest to grow, even if you can’t take care of a goldfish.
I made this book short for a reason: I want to take away every excuse you have for not growing your own organic superfoods.
Notice #2: If You Haven’t Added Superfoods to Your Daily Diet Yet, You Need to Start ASAP!
(this book will get you started)
People are getting so unhealthy and our regular diet is so atrocious that we should all at least be eating some nutrient-packed superfoods each day.
When you can step out onto your deck or walk to your windowsill and pick some organic vegetables or greens, it becomes easy to start eating healthier… not only because it’s so convenient, but also because home-grown food is a completely different experience than produce you buy at the store.

Paleo Snacks – Delicious, Quick & Simple Recipes (Delicious, Quick & Simple Paleo)
Price: FREE
Believe it or not there are some that say people that follow the Paleo style of eating don’t need to snack. This is an unnatural and preposterous idea. Whether you’re a Paleo pro or beginner you will find yourself needing to nosh in between meals from time to time. The idea is that people should be able to satisfy their hunger whenever it strikes, not according to some clock. It seems that “even cavemen” were smart enough to eat when they were hungry and rest when they were tired. It is human nature. There was no such thing as teatime or lunchtime and Big Ben was a long way from being conceived.
This book includes quick Paleo friendly snacks like:
– Paleo Spicy Chicken Bites
– Bacon Quesadilla
– Grilled Pineapple Fruit Salad
– Chocolate Banana Bites
– Chocolate Fried Pie
And many more!
