This early work by Wilkie Collins was originally published in 1877. Born in Marylebone, London in 1824, Collins' family enrolled him at the Maida Hill Academy in 1835, but then took him to France and Italy with them between 1836 and 1838. Returning to England, Collins attended Cole's boarding school, and completed his education in 1841, after which he was apprenticed to the tea merchants Antrobus & Co. in the Strand. In 1846, Collins became a law student at Lincoln's Inn, and was called to the bar in 1851, although he never practiced. It was in 1848, a year after the death of his father, that he published his first book, The Memoirs of the Life of William Collins, Esq., R.A., to good reviews. The 1860s saw Collins' creative high-point, and it was during this decade that he achieved fame and critical acclaim, with his four major novels, The Woman in White (1860), No Name (1862), Armadale (1866) and The Moonstone (1868). The Moonstone, meanwhile is seen by many as the first true detective novel - T. S. Eliot called it \"the first, the longest, and the best of modern English detective novels...in a genre invented by Collins and not by Poe.\" Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.

We have been involved with promoting Italian wines in the East of England over the past five years and our special passion has been for wines from central Italy, especially the Marche region where we have a base in the beautiful Adriatic resort of Senigallia. Through our many contacts in London and the East of England we have facilitated the wines of some excellent Marche wine producers to be stocked by a well known and fast expanding specialised Italian wine merchant in London and hope to set up similar deals with other Marche wine producers in the future. Now we are especially pleased that recently we have been able to also help one of the most innovative small wine companies in Norfolk source some outstanding organic wines from several producers from the Marche region. this company is now in the process of opening a new base in Norfolk in the market town of Wymondham near Norwich but has advanced plans to roll out a similar operation across East Anglia and eventually into the London area. As part of the events that Vinitours will be holding over the next few months, as well as our normal wine and olive oil tastings and workshops we will also be promoting this Norfolk based company at our events in Norfolk and also London, these include events in the Forum in Norwich, Maida Hill Place in West London and wine and olive oil tastings in other towns across East Anglia and Cambridgeshire. E' da più di cinque anni che noi di Vinitours partecipiamo all'organizzazione per la promozione di vini italiani nell'Est dell'Inghilterra e condividiamo la nostra particolare passione per i vini del centro Italia, in particolar modo quelli delle Marche, dove abbiamo anche una base stabile nella città costiera di Senigallia. Attraverso i nostri contatti a Londra e nell'Est England abbiamo aiutato alcuni eccellenti produttori marchigiani a trovare una sbocco presso affermati importatori londinesi specializzati in vino italiano e speriamo di poter continuare su questa strada in futuro. Siamo ora particolarmente fieri di aver recentemente aiutato una innovativa ed intraprendente piccola compagnia del Norfolk nella ricerca di alcuni vini biologici dalle Marche che presto saranno in vendita nel nuovo negozio di imminente apertura nella cittadina di Wymondham vicino Norwich con buone prospettive di aprire una ramificata rete di punti vendita in tutto l'Est Inghilterra e possibilmente Londra. Come parte degli eventi di promozione organizzati da Vinitours nei prossimi mesi, oltre alla nostra consolidata promozione di vini e oli durante le nostre degustazioni e workshop, inizieremo anche la promozione di questa compagnia del Norfolk tanto durante i nostri eventi in quell'area che in quelli che terremo a Londra. Alcune location includono il Forum a Norwich e Maida Hill Place in West London, più tutta una serie di eventi di degustazione in East anglia e Cambridgeshire. Norfolk is one of the fastest growing counties in the UK and the city of Norwich which is the capital of the county is one of the most vibrant and popular cities in England and also has a large and diverse student population at the world famous University of East Anglia. Having a in depth knowledge of the county of Norfolk and the city of Norwich will allow Vinitours to promote the wines of the Marche region to a younger and more affluent customer base and also allow us to roll out a series of workshops and tasting events which would be impossible in the already crowded London wine scene. Over the past three years we have held several Italian wine and food events at the Raffles restaurant chain in Norwich and on September 7th along with the help of Slow Food Norwich we will be holding a special event at the The Library restaurant as part of the Norwich Food Festival. Another part of our ongoing growth of our tours and promotions is that in the past few weeks we have made progress with setting up a new working relationship with a French wine expert who will be working closely with us on holding tasting events and workshops on both French and Italian wines all across the county of Norfolk, and our area of expertise will be to promote the lesser known wines of Le Marche especially organic wines from small artisan producers. Il Norfolk è una delle aree più rapidamente in espanzsione dell'Inghilterra e la città di Norwich, capoluogo provinciale, è una città molto vibrante ed attiva con una grossa popolazione di studenti attratta da una delle principali università nazionali, la University of East Anglia. Grazie alla nostra profonda conoscienza di questa regione ci sarà possibile una promozione dei vini marchigiani ad un pubblico giovane, interessato e costante, tramite l'organizzazione di degustazioni e lezioni guidate con una particolarità che sarebbe altrimenti possibile ottenere nel già sovraffollato panorama londinese. Durante gli ultimi tre anni abbiamo organizzato molte degustazioni di vino Italiano nella zona utilizzando fantastiche location come i ristoranti Raffles a Norwich e questo 7 Settembre terremo, in collaborazione con Slow Food Norwich, una serata speciale al The Library restaurant come parte del Norwich Food Festival. Un ulteriore sforzo si è compiuto nella creazione di una partnership con un esperto sommelier francese e dal prossimo autunno lavoreremo a stretto contatto per l'organizzazione di degustazioni guidate di vini tanto francesi che italiani con il nostro ruolo prevalentemente dedicato alla promozione e consocienza al pubblico dei vini marchigiani con particolare attenzione a quelli biologici e provenienti da piccoli produttori. We look forward to working with all our current friends and producers in the Marche region to carry on promoting and advertising the wonderful and diverse wines of the region to a wider public in the UK and also in other countries we have contacts with including the USA , Australia, Ireland and Holland. Vinitours will continue over the next year with organising events for small artisan wine producers from the Marche region and where possible with wines only produced by organic and biodynamic methods of production, and we are sure that we will help a new market and public to be made aware of the wide range of fabulous wines that come from this beautiful part of Italy. Siamo molto ansiosi di iniziare questo nuovo periodo di eventi e promozioni dedicati alla regione Marche e di continuare a diffondere la conoscienza di questi eccellenti vini al pubblico inglese e speriamo anche in altri parti del mondo tramite i nostri contatti con America, Australia, Irlanda e Olanda. Vinitours continuerà durante i prossimi anni con l'organizzazione di eventi specificatamente dedicati a piccoli produttori marchigiani e dove possibile, si darà esclusiva rilevanza a vini prodotti con metodologie biologiche e biodinamiche. Siamo convinti che potremo aiutare la nascita di un nuovo e più attento mercato e rendere il pubblico più consapevole dell'ampia e pregiata gamma di vini provenienti da questa meravigliosa parte d'Italia.

Bertram had no belief in luck. He was not superstitious. A conspicuously unsuccessful assistant accountant, he was planning to get married for the second time. Quite quietly: St Luke's, Maida Hill, and then two weeks in Bournemouth. But Dreuther, a director of Bertram's firm, whimsically switches wedding and honeymoon to Monte Carlo. Inevitably Bertram visits the Casino. Inevitably he loses. Then suddenly his system starts working . . .
