Readers experience the rich culture of this ancient Greek city-state, a domain notorious for its intellectualism and diplomatic prowess. Readers will learn about how Leonidas I furthered democracy while maintaining the prosperity of his people, even in the face of adversity. Santillian and Macgregor Morris team up to prove that there is much more to Sparta than its magnificent military might.

Timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Ian Botham's Test debut, this covers every aspect of a remarkable life. Supported by text from the man himself, put together from interviews with Mark Baldwin, the pictures are given both context and added meaning. From childhood to world-famous Ashes-winning superstar and now long-serving Sky Sports cricket commentator, he has also played league football and golf, flown helicopters, launched his own wine label and fished the rivers and seas of the world, performed in pantomime and taken on ambassadorial roles. On top of all this, he has raised money for the Leukaemia Research over the past three decades, especially from the well-reported sponsored walks.

With its innovative visual take on trivia, pop culture, and strange-but-true tales, this volume is an exciting, original and hilarious look at humans and the world theyve created.DK
