From the internationally bestselling author of The Radium Girlscomes a dark but ultimately uplifting tale of a woman whose incredible journey still resonates today. Elizabeth Packard was an ordinary Victorian housewife and mother of six. That was, until the first Woman's Rights Convention was held in 1848, inspiring Elizabeth and many other women to dream of greater freedoms. She began voicing her opinions on politics and religion -- opinions that her husband did not share. Incensed and deeply threatened by her growing independence, he had her declared 'slightly insane' and committed to an asylum. Inside the Illinois State Hospital, Elizabeth found many other perfectly lucid women who, like her, had been betrayed by their husbands and incarcerated for daring to have a voice. But just because you are sane, doesn't mean that you can escape a madhouse ... Fighting the stigma of her gender and her supposed madness, Elizabeth embarked on a ceaseless quest for justice. It not only challenged the medical science of the day and saved untold others from suffering her fate, it ultimately led to a giant leap forward in human rights the world over.

„Mit Volldampf voraus, Felix“ ist die Fortsetzung des Bestsellers “Felix, die Bahnhofs-Katze” und eine ganz besondere Tier-Biographie für alle Katzen-Liebhaber und für alle Fans von Katzen-Büchern wie „Bob, der Streuner“, „Dewey und ich“ und „Und dann kam Billy“. Felix kam 2011 als kleines Wollknäuel am Bahnhof in Huddersfield an. Sechs Jahre später wurde sie zum Senior Pest Controller befördert und jagt nach wie vor Mäuse und Tauben. Von Anfang an war sie voll integriertes Mitglied des Bahnhof-Teams und ist in romantischen oder auch tragischen Situationen immer zur Stelle und für die Menschen da. Die Katze bringt zusammen, was zusammen gehört und spendet in schwierigen Situationen Kraft und Vertrauen - die Teamkollegen und die zahlreichen Besucher erhalten von Felix Trost und neuen Lebensmut. Felix zaubert den Menschen ein Lächeln auf ihr Gesicht. Dennoch ist das Leben für Felix etwas hektischer, seit sie eine solche Berühmtheit ist. Täglich reisen zahlreiche Fans von nah und fern an, sogar aus China, um Felix einmal sehen und sie streicheln oder ein Selfie mit ihr machen zu können. Die Kollegen sorgen sich um Felix und ob sie der täglichen Herausforderung wird standhalten können. Da ist es natürlich sehr sinnvoll, einen Katzen-Lehrling einzustellen, der mit ihr gemeinsam diese Last schultern kann. Doch lässt Madame den kleinen und überaus reizenden Kater Bolt auf dem Bahnhof zu und werden sie gute Mannschafts-Kollegen? Felix erlebt neue Abenteuer - nun mit dem kleinen, süßen Kater Bolt im Schlepptau. Allerlei Abwechslung wartet auf die beiden, denn nach wie vor steht die Mäusejagd auf der Tagesordnung, neue Schlafplätze müssen eingerichtet, Diätvorschriften beachtet und Friseurbesuche absolviert werden. Sie raufen sich zusammen und bilden das Herz einer wundervollen Gemeinschaft. „Felix, die Bahnhofs-Katze“ war 2018 ein internationaler Bestseller und auch in Deutschland mehrere Wochen auf der Bestseller-Liste. Felix ist ein weltweiter Social-Media-Hit. Die Katze hat über 130.000 Fans bei Facebook und nutzt ihre Bekanntheit auch für karitative Zwecke, etwa Spendenaktionen für kranke Tiere.

Pre-order the new book packed with more adventures from Felix's life on and off duty at Huddersfield train station. Full Steam Ahead, Felix! is the charming follow up to the Sunday Times bestseller, Felix the Railway Cat. Felix, Senior Pest Controller at Huddersfield station, has been at the heart of a close-knit community since the day she arrived as a kitten. But now, having risen to fame, every-day life at the station has become rather hectic; while reporters and fans clamour for a glimpse of her, Felix and her human co-workers find themselves, and the station, in quite a whirlwind. With the job seemingly too big for one fluffy feline to handle, it seems only sensible to recruit a young apprentice to the team: enter, Bolt. Full of funny and heart-warming stories, with personal tales from Felix's biggest fans, this is the remarkable tale of Felix and Bolt, the ultimate pest-controlling duo.

Felix is a much-loved and hugely popular member of staff at Huddersfield Train Station - and also just so happens to be a fluffy kitten. By day, she spends her time meowing over the tannoy and getting in the way of the ticket printer. By night, she plays a vital role as their official Pest Control Manager, patrolling the platforms in her high-viz vest. But for the close-knit Yorkshire community which Felix is a part of this remarkable little cat has changed their lives in surprising ways. From helping the station manager to cope with the responsibility of his new job and providing comfort to a colleague with a terminal illness, to coming to the rescue of a runaway boy and a child with autism - this book is full of moving stories that show an amazing bond between this very special cat and the station's staff and commuters. For animal lovers, this is a must-have, hilarious, heart-warming read
