Description:
San Francisco, CA: Harper & Row, 1989. 1st thus. p/b. Fine, as new. . C (216 x 135). [This] is the most important question regarding the claims of the Christian faith. Certainly no question in modern religious history demands more attention or interest, as witnessed by the vast body of literature dealing with the Resurrection. James I. Packer says it well in his response to this debate: 'When Christians are asked to make good their claim that this scheme is truth, they point to Jesus' resurrection. The Easter event, so they affirm, demonstrated Jesus' deity; validated his teaching; attested to the completion of his work of atonement for sin; confirms his present cosmic dominion and coming reappearance as Judge; assures us that his personal pardon, presence, and power in people's lives today is fact; and guarantees each believer's own reembodiment by Resurrection in the world to come' The Apostle Paul considered the Resurrection to be the cornerstone of the Christian faith.

Description:
London: Jonathan Cape, 2003. 1st. h/b. Fine, as new.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). The dog was lying on the grass in the middle of the lawn in front of Mrs Shears' house. It looked as if it was running on its side, the way dogs run when they think they are chasing a cat in a dream. But the dog was not running or asleep. The dog was dead. There was a garden fork sticking out of the dog.' The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a murder mystery novel like no other. The detective, and narrator, is Christopher Boone. Christopher is fifteen and has Asperger's, a form of autism. He knows a very great deal about maths and very little about human beings. He loves lists, patterns and the truth. He hates the colours yellow and brown and being touched. He has never gone further than the end of the road on his own, but when he finds a neighbour's dog murdered he sets out on a terrifying journey which will turn his whole world upside down. Christopher is a brilliant creation, and Mark Haddon's… Read More

Colonel Chris Hadfield has spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4,000 hours in space.

The secret to Chris HadfieldÕs success Ð and survival Ð is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst Ð and enjoy every moment of it.

Very good, 1st edition thus (originally in 1963), with clipped d/j in protective sleeve; blue clothbound boards clean with bright gilt titling on spine. Pages crisp, unmarked and tightly bound. A little foxing on edges.. 8vo: crown (200 x 140 / 8"" x 5_""). The sixth of 21 books involving William Haggard's protagonist Colonel Charles Russell, the urbane head of the unobtrusive but lethal Security Executive, a government counter-intelligence agency clearly based on the actual MI5 or Security Service, where he moves easily and gracefully along C.P. Snow's Corridors of Power in Whitehall. Like Haggard's earlier books it has standard elements of suspense thrillers along with detailed examinations of character, but in this case with more scenes of direct action and somewhat less dissection of character and motivation than in the first three books. Julian Symons wrote, ""Of our three post-Amber thriller writers, Fleming Deighton and Haggard, probably it is… Read More

Dedicated 'For Leslie, Hailsham of Marylebone 1990'.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). Lord Hailsham is best known for his long service as Lord Chancellor. In his memoir, he reflects on the nature of that office and on what he achieved during his tenure of it. He also discusses his parallel career at the Bar and his activities in both Houses of Parliament. His memory of events and emotions has not diminished with the passage of time. The formation of his mind by his classical and legal training, of his character by his wartime experiences in the Army, and of his spiritual beliefs in part through the three bereavements he has suffered, are presented to the reader with kindness, humour and honesty.

Quiller learns that there is an international terrorist strike being planned -- at least 3 agents with the Bureau have died trying to gain information on this terrorist strike. All that is certain is that this group will not hesitate to kill anyone who seems even remotely on their trail. Quiller's task is to infiltrate this group through a series of disguises.

Near fine, 1st edition 3rd printing, clipped d/j, maroon clothbound boards, gilt spine titling, text block firm, pages tight and unmarked. 8vo: royal (250 x 170 / 10"" x 6_""). After ten years living abroad, Tarquin Hall wanted to return to his native London. Lured by his nostalgia for a leafy suburban childhood spent in south-west London, he returned with his Indian-born, American fiance in tow. But, priced out of the housing market, they found themselves living not in a townhouse, oozing Victorian charm, but in a squalid attic above a Bangladeshi sweatshop on London's Brick Lane. A grimy skylight provided the only window on their new world: a filthy, noisy street where drug dealers and prostitutes peddled their wares and tramps urinated on the pavements. At night, traffic lights lit up the ceiling and police sirens wailed into the early hours. Yet, as Hall got to know Brick Lane, he discovered beneath its unlovely surface an inner world where… Read More

Very good, 1st edition, unclipped d/j (some bumping and chipping, in protective sleeve), navy boards, silver spine titling; text block firm, pages crisp and unmarked.. 8vo: imperial (290 _ 210 / 11_"" x 8_""). Traditionally linked to the group of artists known as the Glasgow Boys, Joseph Crawhall was working in and around Glasgow at the turn of the century. These young artists reacted against the highly detailed and minutely finished anecdotal pictures then so fashionable. Instead, they believed that art should be about light, colour, design and composition - qualities which are the essence of Crawhall's work. He specialized in painting animals and birds and after 1893 he travelled frequently to Morocco and Spain. The last years of his life were spent in Yorkshire.

In 2013, Thomas Harding returned to his grandmother's house on the outskirts of Berlin which she had been forced to leave when the Nazis swept to power. What was once her 'soul place' now stood empty and derelict. A concrete footpath cut through the garden, marking where the Berlin Wall had stood for nearly three decades.In a bid to save the house from demolition, Thomas began to unearth the history of the five families who had lived there: a nobleman farmer, a prosperous Jewish family, a renowned Nazi composer, a widow and her children and a Stasi informant. Discovering stories of domestic joy and contentment, of terrible grief and tragedy, and of a hatred handed down through the generations, a history of twentieth century Germany and the story of a nation emerged.

Jude Fawley is a young man who longs to better himself and go to Christminster University. However, poverty forces him into a job as a stonemason and an unhappy marriage. When his wife leaves him Jude moves to Christminster determined to follow his dream. There he meets and falls for his free-spirited cousin, Sue Bridehead. They refuse to marry, much to the disapproval of the community around them. In this heartbreaking story Hardy shows the devastating effects of social prejudice and oppression. The novel caused outrage when it was published in 1895 and, as a result, was the last novel Hardy ever wrote.

Eighteen years later Susan and her daughter seek him out, only to discover that he has become the most prominent man in Casterbridge. Henchard attempts to make amends for his youthful misdeeds but his unchanged impulsiveness clouds his relationships in love as well as his fortunes in business. Although Henchard is fated to be a modern-day tragic hero, unable to survive in the new commercial world, his story is also a journey towards love.

Wessex Tales was the first collection of Hardy's short stories, and they reflect the experience of a novelist at the height of his powers. These seven tales, in which characters and scenes are imbued with a haunting realism, show considerable diversity of content, form and style, and range from fantasy to realism and from tragedy to comedy. In insisting on the unusual nature of any story worth the telling, and with his gift for irony and compassion, Hardy achieves more in the genre of the short story than any English novelist before him.
