Follow the journey of a young man who surveys his simple surroundings and innocently asks one of the life's most pressing questions: Isn't there something more? Within his answer lies a familiar quest - the desire to follow one's passions. To build a life of consequence. And to amass the the most valuable collection of all: experiences. With a sympathetic eye for detail, Andrew Lannerd shares the story of how his enthusiasm for Britain developed into a lifelong fascination and a successful business venture. An expertly curated tour of the discoveries, disappointments and delights that result from dreaming big, this is an inspiring tale for the inquisitive reader. Take a ride in a tuk-tuk in India, experience an African safari and meet the Royal Family at a private party at Buckingham Palace. From antique markets and paper fairs, to the auction rooms of London, you'll encounter a passionate collector as he uncovers small pieces of history. Much more than a memoir, Royal Recollections offers a witty and companionate behind-the-scenes view of how to integrate passion and purpose, career and calling, interest and investment. Andrew Lannerd offers the trip of a lifetime through his detailed descriptions, alluring anecdotes, and royal recollections.

DAD’S BEST MEMORIES AND RECOLLECTIONS is Chazzz Humber’s epithaph casting a very long and sentimental shadow across North America and beyond. This 230-page volume is his granite monument, well-polished! It lavishly records 125 of his best memories over a life-span of nearly eighty years. The vignettes are serenaded with more than 400 illustrations. Those discovering this volume likely will find themselves wanting to record, in their own sunset years, their personal memories and recollections. And when they do, they are apt to recall what it was like to live in their fluctuating world dominated by a variety of personalities and cascading events. Mr. Humber vividly describes what it was like, in 1945, to travel in a 1930 Model A Ford from Toronto to Boston. With lively enthusiasm, he reports what it was like to live in post-World War II Boston, to cook a lobster for a former President of the United States or to sell a pair of elevator shoes to one of Hollywood’s shortest celebrities or to shine the shoes of a Derby-hatted father of a future President of the United States. It is not a remarkable achievement to reflect, to recall or to have memories that are treasured. But to tell them with literary aplomb, to recall the events that happened nearly seventy-five years ago with utmost clarity is definitely an admirable achievement and should be cherished not only by the kin who follow Mr. Humber but by those who might like to imitate what he has monumentally achieved in Dad’s Best Memories and Recollections.
