Our featured title this month is the biography Kate Moss by Laura Collins.

On the sunny April evening that she launched her own range for TopShop, thousands seethed into Oxford Street - teenage girls, middle-aged women and men of all ages. But though she has become one of the most recognized women in the world, she remains the least understood. By her own admission, 'The more visible they make me, the less visible I become.' Based on in-depth research, Laura Collins has written the first definitive biography of one of the most glamorous women of our time. Click on the banner to learn more about the book.

Also this month, the influential journalist John Simpson writes about his experiences in Not Quite World's End, Ann Leslie documents her varied and suprising life as a fleet street legend in her autobiography Killing My Own Snakes and Anne Ramsay's Girl in Blue provides an enlightening account of a female police officer on the cold, hard streets of Glasgow.
