Book Description
The Genius of Japanese Carpentry tells the story of the 1200-year-old Yakushiji monastery in Nara and the dedicated modern-day craftsmen who are working to restore what has been lost to the depredations of time, fire and warfare. Although the full monastery reconstruction will not be completed until 2030, one of the main temples, the Picture Hall, has been completely restored employing the same woodworking technology used to create the original building. This new edition of an architectural classic is by Azby Brown—one of the world's leading experts on Japanese architecture. It contains a new preface and many new text materials and photographs—most of them now available in color for the first time. Azby Brown chronicles the painstaking restoration of the temple through extensive interviews with the carpenters and woodworkers along with original drawings based on the plans of master carpenter Tsunekazu Nishioka. An inspiring testament to the dedication of these craftsmen and their philosophy of carpentry work as a form of personal fulfillment, The Genius of Japanese Carpentry offers detailed documentation of this singular project and a moving reminder of the unique cultural continuity found in Japan.

Book Description
You will gain knowledge and understanding of how God’s great mission to redeem mankind was accomplished through His only begotten son, Jesus Christ. Our Lord, Jesus Christ was God’s gift to the world as the Messiah, the sent one from God, to restore the relationship between man and God by repairing the schism created by Adam’s betrayal of God and his fall in the Garden of Eden. Jesus came as a humble servant of God, equipped by God with all of the tools needed to accomplish the work. In this book, Rev. Garcia examines the spiritual tools included in the toolbox of the Master Carpenter, Jesus, as He goes about His Father’s business to fulfill the work of reconciliation. Your appreciation for all that Christ accomplished to enable reestablishing a personal one-on-one relationship between each human and our Father will expand significantly as you dig deeper into the book. In Christ, you will see the blueprint for the new man which He uses to restore the fallen man and repair the broken ones to be as He is, and lead them back to God. You will learn how the ultimate goal of building the family of God is being accomplished by the Lord Jesus Christ in His own body, one soul at a time.

Pages : 337
Book Description
A hardboiled novel about life in the American underground, from the pool halls of Portland to the cells of San Quentin. Simply one of the finest books ever written about being down on your luck. Don Carpenter’s Hard Rain Falling is a tough-as-nails account of being down and out, but never down for good—a Dostoyevskian tale of crime, punishment, and the pursuit of an ever-elusive redemption. The novel follows the adventures of Jack Levitt, an orphaned teenager living off his wits in the fleabag hotels and seedy pool halls of Portland, Oregon. Jack befriends Billy Lancing, a young black runaway and pool hustler extraordinaire. A heist gone wrong gets Jack sent to reform school, from which he emerges embittered by abuse and solitary confinement. In the meantime Billy has joined the middle class—married, fathered a son, acquired a business and a mistress. But neither Jack nor Billy can escape their troubled pasts, and they will meet again in San Quentin before their strange double drama comes to a violent and revelatory end.
