Often informal and always intimate, Days of Hope and Dreams reveals early, unpublished images of Bruce Springsteen that only a friend and confidant could capture. Born and raised in a working-class environment in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Springsteen has for over three decades been one of music's most influential songwriters and performers. Also born and raised in a working-class New Jersey home, photographer Frank Stefanko crossed paths with Springsteen by way of an introduction by a mutual friend, musician Patti Smith. Their meeting spurred a photographic collaboration that lasted from 1978 to 1982 and produced cover photos for Darkness on the Edge of Town and The River. Now, for the first time, 88 images from Frank Stefanko's archive of several thousand photos are seeing the light of day. Days of Hope and Dreams presents an unforgettable selection of the photographer's most candid and personal images from his time with Springsteen, accompanied by his behind-the-scenes recollections of their work and friendship.

In the Changing Room Before we kick off I have to say this, these are my memories, and it has to be said, some of them have been befuddled by drink and erased from the mental back-up disc due to needing more space for uploading new stuff. Phrases you will see often are 'I really can't remember' 'if I remember correctly' and 'I may be wrong'...yes I will admit it, I have been wrong before...1969 I think it was...oh and once in 1973 as well. I have checked where possible but half the time I can't be arsed so there. One area where some clever shite will immediately contradict me is numbers we took to away games, this was and still is impossible to estimate, so whilst some will try to claim we took thousands to every away match I have tried to judge by how much of the stands we filled in the days when the majority of the travelers all stood together. Characters, there have been 'legends' both on and off the pitch over the years, some have moved on to 'a better place' ...yes living in Pattaya, others have went off to the 'Big Match' in the sky where Jesus grabs the Number Nine shirt every game because he thinks he's Alan Shearer...only for St. Peter to point out that Jackie Milburn's name is already on the team sheet as Centre Forward. No doubt someone will bemoan the absence of some of the terrace 'heroes' but I have only mentioned those I clearly remember. I was never a member of any 'crews' 'firms' or 'gangs' unless you count our collective 70's name the 'Geordie Boot Boys', I was never a ringleader or organiser I knew who they were and often found myself in their company but chose to stay incognito. This is not a book of statistics, scorers, results or team line ups, they are well documented elsewhere. These are just my, sometimes possibly inaccurate recollections of being a supporter and a footsoldier in the Black & White Army for over fifty years...and if you don't like it...then write yer own...chances are of got your money anyway ...so who's the numbnutz now?

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, now with an extra chapter. 'All I ever wanted was to be a mum - I couldn't wait and it felt as though my time was so close. But the months started to tick by, with each one ending in disappointment and frustration. And then the inevitable panic started to set in ...' Having been told by doctors that, due to Izzy's polycystic ovarian syndrome, they would have difficulty conceiving - and after two years of trying - Izzy and her husband, Harry, turned to IVF. Izzy's aim is to break through some of the taboos surrounding miscarriage, IVF and fertility issues. This brutally honest and deeply personal account acknowledges the struggles that many couples go through but will ultimately focus on the positive, life-changing results that IVF can yield. Izzy hopes that this book will be a companion to those going through similar challenges to those she has experienced. As she herself says, 'No couple should have to go through it alone and in silence.'
