Isobel's Shadow a novel by Tim Dalgleish 
Nick Rainer Reid is a poet. A modern-day young Werther. He has cut himself adrift.  In Tarifa - where lost souls reside - the southernmost point of Europe, he searches for meaning. His letters and poems have been edited and annotated by the literary critic Geronimo Ortega Dalgoté. Having examined this final period of Reid’s life, the critic obliquely questions the mystery surrounding the poet’s death.
This is an evocative, literary, philosophical and romantic novel set in Spain at the turn of the twentieth century.

                            Desiderata
                       The Origins of an American Classic


                        For the first time, the story behind the writing
                                    of ‘Desiderata’ beloved by millions.


The poem was first published in 1927, but its true origins, along with the life of its author, have largely been lost to literary history.
This account by actor and author Tim Dalgleish includes not only the story of ‘Desiderata’ but two additional, previously unpublished, chapters from a forthcoming biography of Max Ehrmann. This new material helps bring Max Ehrmann, the author of ‘Desiderata’, out of the shadows.

The Trial of Oscar Wilde by Charles Grolleau
New Edition edited by Tim Dalgleish

Charles Grolleau (1867-1940), a French author and translator of Omar Khayam, edited and published anonymously 'The Trial of Oscar Wilde' (also titled 'The Shame of Oscar Wilde') in 1906, in Paris.  The cultural legacy of Wilde’s life, and the manner of his death, would take many years and many biographies, films and literary studies to coagulate, but the blood was spilt in Grolleau’s lifetime and stained as readily in Wilde’s beloved France as it did in England.

Secret Armies by John L. Spivak
New Edition edited by Tim Dalgleish

The Rachel Maddow of his day, campaigning journalist, John L. Spivak, spent five years investigating the pre-war fascist penetration of America. 
This new edition includes an introduction, by playwright and author Tim Dalgleish, which places Spivak in the American tradition of campaigning journalists. Dalgleish argues Donald Trump’s MAGA movement has adopted Nazi propaganda techniques. Newspaper articles from the period are included - which cover Spivak’s arrest for supposed libel against ‘radio priest’ Father Coughlin, the terrorist actions of the Christian Front and other Nazis - and reveal the historical precedent of what happens when the press are viewed as ‘the enemy of the people.’
