Book Description
American historian of modern Europe and Germany McClelland warns that he is offering a social rather than traditional art history, and approaches artists as social beings not isolated geniuses. He limits his study to visual artists in Germany only because his original plan proved too grand, but hopes readers can generalize to artists in other fields, elsewhere in Europe, and across the Atlantic. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

Book Description
The home state of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a land of rugged mountains, deep canyon lands and majestic rivers. Utah and Mormon history are entwined, as so many early followers of the faith settled the region beginning in 1847. They preserved their values and heritage in the numerous temples, forts, tabernacles and cemeteries that serve as historic sacred monuments for the modern church. Author and LDS member Andy Weeks explores the history behind the landmarks that exalt the rich, deeply rooted history of Mormonism in the Beehive State.

Book Description
"Within a few years it is estimated that at least 200,000 men and women from the American Midwest, South and East, and also from Australia, China, Europe, North Africa and both Central and South America rushed for the Mother Lode. As part of this process Roman Catholic, Mormon, Jewish and Protestant communities sent vigorous leadership to the California gold mines." "Nothing like this vast migration from so many nations and cultures had ever taken place in the history of the world, especially into one small geographical area. And nothing like it has happened since. At the same time the religious world was in the process of sending out missionaries to the ends of the earth. Dr. Hogue shows us that the religious communities at their best left a legacy of integrity and hope in the midst of one of the most disheartening and often crass periods of American Western history. In this thrilling story, Dr. Hogue carefully and interestingly elucidates a story full of surprises, heartaches, and failures, but also full of robust and persistent courage of both men and women of faith."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Description
An incisive biography of the guiding intellectual presence - and chief internal critic - of Zionism, during the movement's formative years between the 1880s and the 1920s. Ahad Ha'am ('One of the People') was the pen name of Asher Ginzberg (1856-1927), a Russian Jew whose life intersected nearly every important trend and current in contemporary Jewry. His influence extended to figures as varied as the scholar of mysticism Gershom Scholem, the Hebrew poet Hayyim Nahman Bialik, and the historian Simon Dubnow. Theodor Herzl may have been the political leader of the Zionist movement, but Ahad Ha'am exerted a rare, perhaps unequalled, authority within Jewish culture through his writings. Ahad Ha'am was a Hebrew essayist of extraordinary knowledge and skill, a public intellectual who spoke with refreshing (and also, according to many, exasperating) candour on every controversial issue of the day. He was the first Zionist to call attention to the issue of Palestinian Arabs. He was a critic of the use of aggression as a tool in advancing Jewish nationalism and a foe of clericalism in Jewish public life. His analysis of the prehistory of Israeli political culture was incisive and prescient. Steven J. Zipperstein offers all those interested in contemporary Jewry, in Zionism, and in the ambiguities of modern nationalism a wide-ranging, perceptive reassessment of Ahad Ha'am's life against the back-drop of his contentious political world. This influential figure comes to life in a penetrating and engaging examination of his relations with his father, with Herzl, and with his devotees and opponents alike. Zipperstein explores the tensions of a man continually torn between sublimation and self-revelation, between detachment and deep commitment to his people, between irony and lyricism, between the inspiration of his study and the excitement of the streets. As a Zionist intellectual, Ahad Ha'am rejected both xenophobia and assimilation, seeking for the Jews a usable past and a plausible future.

Book Description
This book is not for spiritual sissies. It is not for the fainthearted. It is also not intended in any way to condemn or frighten anyone, but it is intended to set a fire in the midst of the modern church and call the children of God back to holiness and purity and the fear of the Lord. It is time to prepare our wedding garments. Revelation tells us that we are the ones who prepare our own garments.Revelation 19:7; "Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready."If you truly have a call of God on your life, you will very often find yourself in circumstances not only not of your own making, but also circumstances which are not in any way pleasant or comfortable. They are circumstances you never would have chosen for yourself. Yet, here you are and you are in the right square in the midst of them!God has a way of preparing His own to bring them to a place of humility. In this process He creates servants who have learned to be yielded, obedient and trustworthy.Psalm 24:3-5; Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood And has not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the Lord And righteousness from the God of his salvation.Don't you think it's time?
