If Hovercraft Can Go Anywhere, How Did We End Up Here? tells the stories of two hovercraft fixers who gave up some of the best years of their lives to repair and commission hovercraft all over the world. Unfortunately, the places that need hovercraft are tough, rugged, god-forsaken and not in the least bit glamorous - just like John and Russ, in fact. Whether impounded in the docks, in pieces in a hanger or strapped to a stranded lorry, as John once put it, "There's always a bloody hovercraft waiting to be fixed."

Why cook at home when you can order in? Only 50 years ago, pure methamphetamine was legally prescribed in New Zealand to anyone looking for a boost. But it wasn't long before P was rebranded as the most dangerous and destructive drug in the world - and New Zealanders cemented as among its biggest users. With dry wit and biting insight, journalist Benedict Collins takes us inside the evolution of meth in New Zealand. From ram raids for pseudoephedrine to our own cooks and gangs 'breaking bad', a visit to the Golden Triangle of meth production in South-East Asia, multimillion-dollar busts, and a moral panic that seeded a meth-testing scandal. All set the stage for unthinkable crimes and drug-fuelled mania, but also serviced a hidden world of white-collar users - and cemented New Zealand's reputation as among the biggest meth consumers in the world. How did tough on crime become dumb on drugs? And what does a solution to Pure addiction look like? * 'A terrific, gripping read that challenges us to think differently about one of New Zealand's biggest problems.' Jarrod Gilbert, bestselling author of Patched: The History of Gangs in New Zealand 'Engrossing and written with flair, Benedict Collins tells the story of how demonising drugs and drug users causes more harm than good. The upside is: there is a better way.' Professor Michael Baker, co-author of 'Minimising the Harms from Methamphetamine' (NZ Drug Foundation/Helen Clark Foundation)
Hi everyone, This book is pretty much our official story so far. It really does seem only like last week we played our first gig at the Annandale Hotel in Sydney. Since then we've been given the opportunity to turn into the people and musicians we wanted to be. The people who gave us the opportunity were the fans. So this book is like a thank-you. We want everyone to know the story of how four western Sydney teenagers picked up their instruments and dreamed of being one of the biggest bands in the world. There are also some embarrassing photos of us derping around and some facts that some of us didn't even know. So we hope you enjoy it! Love, cal, luke, ash, and mike x
