Part One tells the story of Daniel, an apprentice scribe in a ninth-century Celtic monstery and is set against the background of daily life there.

Drawings by the artist Mark O'Kelly accompany the narrative. Part Two, an illustrated step-by-step explanation of Celtic-style writing, takes its components, letter by letter, and describes the process of graphic composition and the intricacies of spirals and interlace. It also explains the basic principles of ruling and page layout, finishing with examples of bookbinding and covering. A list of suggested further reading and examples from the Book of Durrow complete the work.

In the first English edition in 70 years of a lost classic by one of the great 20th century writers, Napoleon is seen from the point of view of a woman with whom his life is quietly intermingled
 
The story of Napoleon's last snatch at glory is framed both through the eyes of Bonaparte and his infatuated young laundress named Angelinawith rather more said by her about the Emperor's dirty handkerchiefs than the Duke of Wellington. It provides an arch and yet moving look at Napoleon's seemingly triumphant return to Paris from exile in March 1815. Before 100 days have elapsed, fate and war have crushed Napoleon's ambitions and the romantic dreams of his maid. Out of print in English for 70 years, this is a unique and unforgettable work, pitching Napoleon out of Olympian Heights and sending him crashing down to earth, leaving a devoted young lover trailing in his wake.

An Unintended Journey to the Heart of Americas Promise

# data[].attributes.description
Fear and Trembling in Las Vegas functions as the perfect sequel to Will Hoyts The Seven Ranges. In The Seven Ranges, Hoyt sought answers to how and why small, self-sufficient landholders in eastern Ohio consented to the destruction of once-thriving townships and even topography itself via strip mining in the 1960s. Surprisingly, America itself and its grandeur as a project came into view after following strictly localized clues. Now, in Fear and Trembling, Hoyt details a different kind of devastationthe collapse of Western Civilization as experienced by residents in eastern Ohio, Cleveland, and Michigan between 1994 and 2024. In this case, he employs popular culture as a lens rather than land. Yet, despite these differences, America and its grandeur as a project once again come into view. Readers will close this new book with a firm grasp not only on the importance of the American dream, but also on the timeliness of its promise.

A Broad Vision for Wesleyan-Holiness Theology

# data[].attributes.description
The Rhythm of Grace: A Broad Vision for Wesleyan-Holiness Theology gathers decades of scholarly reflection from Henry W. Spaulding II and his son Hank Spaulding to offer a renewed, expansive, and justice-oriented vision of holiness. Through essays that engage theological aesthetics, political theology, Wesleyan ecclesiology, and the challenges of postmodernity, this collection weaves a tapestry of sanctified imagination for a fragmented world.

With both previously published and original chapters, The Rhythm of Grace challenges the privatization of holiness and reclaims it as a public, prophetic witness. It is a book for pastors, scholars, and laity who long to see holiness reimagined as the liberating grace of God active in the world.

Exploring Modern Logic is a student-friendly and highly engaging introduction to symbolic logic and its real-world applications. Assuming no prior knowledge of logic or philosophy, this book gives students the skills to accomplish quite easily such tasks as symbolizing statements and writing proofs that have historically been perceived as difficult. The book teaches students how to evaluate the logical strength of arguments on any subject, whether or not they know anything about the subject. Employing a strong sense of humor, the book acquaints students with the most common logical fallacies to which they are exposed every day, especially on social media and television, and reveals why each one is a fallacy. By enabling students to identify the role each statement in an argument plays, the book equips students to be good readers and good thinkers, thereby helping them to become better writers. In sum, this book makes learning modern logic fun for introductory students and is therefore ideal for use in a one-semester undergraduate logic course.<br />

Texts, Archaeology, and a New Case for Golgotha on Jerusalems West Side

# data[].attributes.description
In 2023, while discussing the geography of Jerusalem with biblical scholar Dr. James D. Tabor, Todd West realized Tabor may have discovered the historical Calvary at a hillock called Bible Hill in southwest Jerusalem. This insight was momentous because no one knows for certain where Jesus was crucified. Illustrating its prominence, Bible Hill makes two cameos in the book of Joshua, and everyone in the Bible who ever came to the Holy City gazed at its impressive summit overlooking Mount Zion and the Hinnom Valley. Truly, a crucifixion on Bible Hill would have been unforgettable. Bible Hill has the prerequisites to be Calvary as well. It was outside the city; had first-century garden tombs; sat by a major road; was visible from afar; and was located where crowds could gather. Bible Hill also faced the Praetorium, and shows countless other signs of being Calvaryfrom burial pits with coins minted by Pontius Pilate, to potential crucifixion nails in the urns of Roman soldiers. Bible Hill even looks like Goliaths gigantic skull, explaining how it could have been called the Place of the Skull. This book lays out the case for the evidence that now indicates Bible Hill is the site of Jesus crucifixion, signaling a revolution in biblical geography.

A Primer for the Public Dialogue on Abortion

# data[].attributes.description
Providing insight into the skills of argumentation, this book is exclusively from a philosophical perspective. Navigating the essential elements of the public abortion issue, the reader confronts the logical implications of various stances. The goal is to refine ones own argument with the common intent to preserve human dignity. Only cooperative scrutiny can break down the public stalemate, offering respectful engagement in the political and religious arenas.

Rather than championing a position, the reader is guided away from the binary stances of choice or life, entering into the abortion dialogue as an original critical thinker. Free from ideological or dogmatic positions, the central argument is distilled from the premises that either some living humans are persons, or all living humans are persons, with moral value either assigned or recognized. Technology will continue to ethically impinge on the issues of bodily autonomy and biological life, but the notion of personhood and moral value alone will endure.

Bujnos expertise in philosophical anthropology and medical ethics and bioethics, tethered to an applied background in logic and critical thinking, provides a unique opportunity to address the cultural issues of justice relative to abortion in a scholarly, nonpartisan tone. This book truly fills a niche!

Concern for an extreme form of Christian nationalism influencing the current American administrations decisions led Mary Theresa Webb to revisit over two thousand years of Christian history. She reminds todays believers why God chose to send his Son to be born at the time of the Roman occupation of Palestine and what we can learn about how to live in the domain of God (since America was founded to get away from kings and kingdoms). She explores the role of the Beatitudes as a compass for following the Christian way, truth, and life. Before addressing the danger now to American Christianity, Webb reviews eschatology terms and heresies that have led to the formation of the creeds. Her examples of the entwinement of church and state are warnings for American Christians to bring us back from the cliff we are headed toward. In true prophetic style, hope comes in the last chapter with suggestions for specific actions church leaders can take to bring us back from disaster.<br />
