From his standout youth, where he honed his skills on a backyard rink, to his unlikely jump to the pros at the age of 17, this biography chronicles Wayne Gretzky's ascension to the greatest hockey player of all time to his shocking trade from the Edmonton Oilers to the Los Angeles Kings in 1998—an event that rocked hockey fans across North America. This chronicle reveals, for the first time, the true story behind the deal, as well as Gretzky's important role in making the trade happen. From the press conference where the trade was announced and where Gretzky wept, this work notes how the “Great One” could have been crying tears of joy as he realized his life was about to get a whole lot better—playing for more money in a California city that would be a perfect home for him and his glamorous new actress-wife.

Taking the history of trade and of traders as its subject matter, this book offers the first economic history of northern Namibia during the twentieth century. It traces Namibias way from a rural, largely self-relying society into a globalised economy of consumption. This transformation built on colonial economic activities, but it was crucially shaped by local traders, a new social elite emerging during the 1950s and 1960s. Becoming a trader was one of the few possibilities for black Namibians to gain monetary income at home. It was a pathway out of migrant labour, to new status in the local society and often to prosperity. Politically, most traders occupied a middle ground: content of their own social position, but intent on political emancipation from colonial rule. Economically, their energy and business acumen transformed northern Namibia into an increasingly urban consumer society. The development path they chose, however, depended too much on the colonial reserve economy to remain sustainable after 1990. Their legacy still shapes spatial and social structures in northern Namibia, but most traders businesses have today closed down. By telling the history of the rise and decline of traders and trade in northern Namibia, this book is thus also a reflection on the conundrums of economic development under conditions of structural inequality.

Volume Two of 100 Great African Kings and Queens continues the journey of another ten magnificent monarchs in African history. The phenomenal success of Volume One and its revised enriched edition made Volume Two urgent. These chronicles will eventually cover the promised One Hundred Kings and Queens, and in the event capture a significant portrait of Real African History. In this edition the opening salvo is the inimitable Hatshesput, one of the greatest builders in all of history. Her construction work in the Nile Valley still stands as a monumental testimony of the African genius, and a benchmark of beautiful architecture. Then there are the freedom fighters and Warrior Queens: Dahia Al Kahina of North Africa and the indomitable Ranavalona 1 of Madagascar. Her ferocity in defence of independence was such that her colonial adversaries dubbed her The Mad Queen of Madagascar. There are also the unsung military exploits of the formidable Sekhukhune of South Africa, and a certain Mad Mullah, Mohammed Abdulle Hassan. He demolished his enemies and wrote exquisite poetry to document his glittering victories, and thus became the father of the Somali nation. These delightful historical narratives will keep you on the edge of your seat for its sheer power of revelation.
