Grim, Victorian, notorious—for 150 years Mount Eden Prison held both New Zealand's political prisoners and its most infamous criminals. Te Kooti, Rua Kenana, John A. Lee, George Wilder, Tim Shadbolt, and Sandra Coney all spent time in its dank cells. Its interior has been the scene of mass riots, daring escapes, and hangings. Highly regarded historian Mark Derby tells the prison's inside story with verve and compassion.

Featuring more than two hundred in-depth winery profiles, this definitive guide is the best single source of information on world-renowned pinot noirs from California and Oregon. Drawing on his encyclopedic knowledge of a grape variety considered by many to produce the ultimate food wine, John Winthrop Haeger offers this expanded, updated companion volume to his award-winning North American Pinot Noir. Here, with three times the number of winery profiles, he focuses exclusively on what he calls the Pacific Pinot Zone, stretching from the mouth of the Columbia River in Oregon to Santa Barbara in California and extending up to thirty miles inland. An introductory essay provides an indispensable view of pinot noir in the United States—including the dramatic effect that the movie Sideways has had on its sales and production. Pacific Pinot Noir features: * Detailed descriptive tasting notes and selected vertical tastings * At-a-glance graphics conveying information on tasting rooms, prices, and production for each winery * Regional maps showing key viticultural areas * Contact information for each winery

This unique book provides practical and legal clarity on all questions concerning landlord's consent, such as: What is a valid and effective request for consent? When can a tenant impose its desire for change on a reluctant landlord? What is a reasonable as opposed to an unreasonable refusal of consent? And what are the perils if either side calls it wrong? Since the last edition of this book in 2008, the law relating to landlord's consent, has evolved considerably. The purpose of this new edition is to bring that evolution into the much-loved analysis which have made practitioners say that previous editions have been that rare beast: a book about law that is actually enjoyable to read and which allows the practitioner and student clearly to see the wood for the trees.
