We’ve got all kinds of business in California this month, so we’ve followed the sunshine and flown west. Picked up California 101 for a road trip down Route 1. Historian Kevin Starr passed away last year, but left behind a ton of superb reads about his native state. This one explores how the Golden State went from sparsely populated no-man’s land to become the world’s fifth-largest economy - quite the Hollywood ending!

She spent her childhood on a junk yard in rural Idaho without setting foot in a school, at the mercy of her violent brother and a bi-polar survivalist dad. She now has a doctorate from Cambridge and the journey she documents in this extraordinary memoir will blow your mind. The power of resilience and resourcefulness shouldn’t be underestimated.
