A thoroughly researched and highly descriptive account of Bristol's major involvement in the colourful business of piracy. It brings to life in fascinating detail the background and events of 200 years of an unsavoury nautical business in which daring, resource and seamanship sailed alongside ferocious brutality, cunning and greed.

Where's My Money?
by Mike Manson
The cry of 'I want my money' invariably means that something is about to blow.
Max doesn't work. Now he's been offered a job - at the dole office.
It's the hot summer of 1976. Mega-flares. The dole office. Cider. And a riot.
Where's My Money? is a witty encounter with slacker culture in Bristol in the 1970s, set against the background of Max Redcliffe's day job in a dole office. For a time in the 1970s author Mike Manson worked as a dole clerk. 'This isn't my story,' he says. He has to. He signed the Official Secrets Act.
