Book Description
Virginia's rarified, tradition-bound foxhunting society is threatened by a radical concept: The Church of Foxhunting. True believers sing (literally) the praises of the sporting life. A current of titillation flows among them, from teenagers to grandparents. The two meanings of "venery" (pursuits both sporting and erotic) happily blend into a single drive. But with the established hierarchy challenged, conflicts arise and tensions grow. An eclectic ensemble cast of characters, from the hunt's senior master to the trailer-dwelling tractor mechanic, must deal with the upheaval to their cloistered world. Entertaining, amusing, and thought-provoking, "The Prophet of Paradise" is a new direction in the field of horse sport literature, an excellent read for those who foxhunt, or who simply enjoy a well-told tale.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Prophet's Paradise: In Verse I. To-night I stand upon the Mount of Hope, While darkness veils the scene above, below, And thro' this veil of mystery I grope, The riddle of my life to ree - to know. II. Behold! a traveler, bent and seared with age, Calls loudly - "I have found the Only Way! 'Tis here revealed upon this sacred page Believe, and ye shall see the Light of Day." III. A million voices answer - "We believe!" A million voices cry - "We see the Light!" A million more the Light cannot perceive, And still with me are groping in the Night. IV. Doubt's shadows fell across the Vale of Youth When o'er the Book I pored, and not one leaf Revealed to me - though eager for the truth - The evidence that must precede belief.

ISBN: 9780802829573
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 720
Book Description
A fascinating look at the founders of the world's main religions. The major religious traditions of the world owe their existence to the vision of an ancient founder. This important volume explores the lives of the five founders of major world religions-Moses, Buddha, Confucius, Jesus, and Muhammad-chronicling what is actually known of these charismatic men and introducing readers to the cultural and religious worlds that heard their messages. Readers in predominantly Christian lands, in addition to learning about the lives of Confucius, Buddha, and Muhammad- whom they might not be familiar with- will also be introduced to modern research now casting fresh light on the careers of Moses and Jesus. Whether studied individually or in comparison with one another, these biographies, together with a chapter on the characteristics of religious leadership, chart the spiritual rivers that continue to feed the diversity of religious expression today.

Book Description
This book is pure and simple knowledge, brought to us by the teachings of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and the early history of Islam. The book looks at the birth of the prophet (PBUH), his first profession, and his becoming a prophet. It delves into all we know about his life; the way he taught the people and the reaction of the people at the time. Furthermore, it investigated the leaving of Mecca and journey to Medina, and the many battles that followed: The battle of Badhar where angels came to fight for Allah’s religion, the battle of Audh, the battle of the trench and finally, the conquest of Mecca. This book also looks at the controversial topic of Mohammad’s (PBUH) eleven wives, before finishing with the death of Mohammad (PBUH). It is truly a book for any and every knowledge seeker, as it summarizes all the information we have about the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), the entire truth as we know it, completely bared , holding nothing back; gifting us all the knowledge that we have about the religion of Allah.
