This DVD features two rare vintage episodes of The Frank Sinatra Show. The first was screened in 1950 with guest stars Stump and Stumpin. The second episode is taken from the 1957 series of the Frank Sinatra Show with guest stars Peggy Lee, Bob Hope and Kim Novak.

Legends that immediately spring to mind include Tony Bennett, Perry Como, Bing Crosby, Sammy Davis Jr, Barry Manilow, Johnny Mathis, Matt Monroe, Frank Sinatra and Andy Williams but they have recently been joined in the Parthenon of great crooners by such incredibly emotional modern singers as Michael Buble, Harry Connick Jr and Julio Inglesias. This lavishly illustrated little book takes a look at the colourful careers of the greatest ever crooners and celebrates a singing style that is as fashionable today as it was when it was pioneered by Al Bowlly in the mid-1930s.

Using challenging aerial photography, the series shows the islands in a dramatic new light, from some of the remotest islands in the UK, to some that are within easy reach of Scotland s mainland cities. The series is written and narrated by popular Gaelic broadcaster John Carmichael. John explores the geography and natural history of six different island groups. The Orkney Isles - Orkney has been inhabited for at least 5,500 years. Originally inhabited by neolithic tribes and then by the Picts, Orkney was invaded and finally annexed by Norway in 875 and settled by the Norse. It was subsequently re-annexed to the Scottish Crown in 1472, following the failed payment of a dowry for James III s bride, Margaret of Denmark. The Shetland Islands - The Shetland Islands comprisies more than a hundred islands, (just 15 of them inhabited), that span the hundred miles (145km) between Fair Isle and Out Stack, the northernmost point of Britain. This bustling archipelago of 22,500 people boasts abundant wildlife, a spectacular coastline and dozens of major archaeological sites. The 567 sq. mile (1468km²) county of Shetland is an entrancing mixture of Scotland and Norway. ISLANDS OF SCOTLAND LITTLE BOOK: Ringing the coasts like a gorgeously jewelled necklace, the islands of Scotland form one of the country s most precious assets. Numbering nearly 800 in all, the islands fall mainly into four major archipelagos the Inner and Outer Hebrides, Orkney and Shetland but many others are to be found clustered round Scotland s west and east coats. And each island, whether inhabited or devoid of human presence, has its own character, landscape and natural wonders. Island-hopping visitors may find majestic mountain ranges, long, lonely and golden beaches, vast wild moorlands and bustling, tourist-friendly towns. Hikers and ramblers, while taking in vistas of awe-inspiring beauty, can discover magnificent flora and fauna and ancient reminders of the isles veiled past. Islands of Scotland starts with a discussion of the islands intriguing histories and a look at their geographical wonders. It goes on to examine each of the island groups in turn, from the Solway Firth in the south-west to the better-known Hebrides, Orkney and Shetland to the west and north, finishing with the rocky skerries that dot the Firth of Forth in the east. Each chapter covers the landscape, people, culture and natural treasures of an island group, evoking the mysterious beauty of places that have drawn humans for millennia.

LITTLE BOOK OF ANCIENT ROME: For more than a thousand years the city of Rome stood on the banks of the River Tiber. Ruled by a succession of kings, consuls and emperors the most powerful city in the world sent out armies to conquer the entire known world. Whether the enemy was a Greek city state, a Celtic king, an Egyptian queen or an Eastern monarch they all fell before the all conquering might of the Roman army. Behind the military conquests stood a sophisticated civilization that boasted the finest culture that ever flourished. There were palaces of exquisite beauty, theatres of famed splendour and temples of lavish decoration. The Romans valued subtle literature, delicate mosaics and fine statues. Yet they also watched bloody gladiator fights, gloried in fake animal hunts and sent men to their deaths in chariot races. Although Rome dazzled the world with its power and splendour, it contained within itself the causes of its own destruction. Rome may have finally fallen to barbarians from Germany, but it had for years been teetering on the edge of disaster. Author and celebrated historian Rupert Matthews details the glory that was Rome - how it grew and why it fell.

LITTLE BOOK OF HITLER'S HENCHMEN: Behind Adolf Hitler stood a hand-picked group of evil men who were sworn to aid the Führer in his quest for world domination and the elimination of the Jewish people. From the strutting propaganda genius Joseph Goebbels to history s greatest mass murderer, Heinrich Himmler, each was sworn to uphold the monstrous policies of a Nazi machine that wrought terror wherever its malign influence spread. Hermann Goering s Luftwaffe and Karl Doenitz s navy dealt death on land and sea. Albert Speer plotted the glories of the future Germany while Baldur von Schirach manipulated the youth of the Reich. Adolf Eichmann masterminded the slaughter of millions. Josef Mengele tortured and murdered in the name of science. Braggart diplomat Joachim von Ribbentrop swaggered and blustered. Roland Freisler shouted down political enemies while condemning them to the guillotine. Deluded deputy Rudolf Hess embarked on a fool s errand. Above them all, smirking as they danced to his tune, puppet master Martin Bormann schemed and twisted. Each one of Hitler s henchmen was ruthlessly dedicated to the Nazi ideal and to cynical self-advancement. Together, they formed a hideous real-life chamber of horrors.
