Book Footsteps in the Fog

Download or read book Footsteps in the Fog written by Jeff Kraft and published by Santa Monica Press. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 848 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Footsteps in the Fog is a celebration of the San Francisco films of Alfred Hitchcock. The master director's familiarity with Northern California greatly influenced his decision to use Bay Area locations in several of his landmark motion pictures, and more importantly was often the source of inspiration for many of these same cinema classics. Three of Hitchcock's masterpieces were set in the San Francisco area: Shadow of a Doubt, Vertigo, and The Birds. In addition, Rebecca, Suspicion, Marnie, Topaz, Psycho, and Family Plot utilized Bay Area locations and/or were inspired by Northern California events and settings. Footsteps in the Fog examines these famous films, taking the reader on a journey around the Bay Area, while weaving together cinemagraphic intrigue, Bay Area history and lore, and the timeless elegance of San Francisco and its picturesque surroundings. Over 400 historical and contemporary photos are featured in the book, including impromptu off-camera images and shots from the films themselves—many never before seen! Footsteps in the Fog can be used as a companion to viewing the Northern California Hitchcock films, as a guide for visiting the sites and settings used in these motion pictures, and as a source of biographical information about Alfred Hitchcock's personal connections to San Francisco and the Bay Area. Hitchcock loved Northern California; he often entertained Hollywood celebrities at his ranch and vineyard outside of Santa Cruz, and frequented such San Francisco institutions as Jack's Restaurant, the Fairmont Hotel, the Top of the Mark, and the historic Bercut Brothers' Grant Market. Hitchcock fans everywhere will rejoice as they revisit and rediscover the locations and settings used in the great director's most beloved films.

Book Simon Called Peter

  • Author : Dom Mauro-Giuseppe Lepori
  • Publisher : Ignatius Press
  • Release : 2010-01-01
  • ISBN : 1586172719
  • Pages : 134 pages

Download or read book Simon Called Peter written by Dom Mauro-Giuseppe Lepori and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simon Peter, the fisherman who was both attracted to Jesus and repelled by his own weakness, who in faith walked on the water and in fear began to sink; the ardent disciple who promised to die for His Lord and then moments later betrayed Him, who needed to reaffirm his yes to God over and over again, even unto a martyr's death: Is this not a model for many of us who desire to love and trust the Lord completely, yet who struggle daily to pick up our cross and follow Him? Abbot Lepori's meditation on the relationship between our Lord and Saint Peter invites us to consider our own relationship with Christ. As he imaginatively retells the well-known stories from the Gospels, he revivifies them and makes them present to us, deepening our understanding of the calling we have received from Jesus and strengthening our confidence that the Lord will, indeed, bring to completion the work of love He has begun in us.

Book In The Footsteps of Churchill

Download or read book In The Footsteps of Churchill written by Richard Holmes and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-02-23 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one of the most admired political leaders of the twentieth century, Winston Churchill holds iconic status in popular memory. But in this incisive new biography, acclaimed military historian Richard Holmes offers a remarkable reappraisal of Churchill by examining the influences that shaped his character. Drawing upon never-before-seen materials such as letters between the young Churchill and his parents, Holmes paints the most complete portrait to date of the man who stood up to Hitler and led his people to victory against all odds. Detailing the decisive events of Churchill's life -- from his childhood to his experiences in the Boer War through his rapid rise in politics -- Holmes demonstrates the central role Churchill's character played in the key decisions of his public life. With an already inflated sense of self, Churchill had several lucky escapes in combat -- in the Boer War and in the trenches of WWI -- convincing him that he was saved for a reason and was destined for greatness. In the Footsteps of Churchill uncovers a surprisingly different Churchill -- both admirable and difficult -- through the lens of his character.

  • Release : 2017-05-23
  • ISBN : 9781546904632
  • Pages : 164 pages

Download or read book Following the Footsteps of Simon Peter written by Joani Ross and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simon Peter was a disciple of Jesus. He walked with, talked to, and learned from Jesus for three years. He was even in Jesus' inner INNER circle of a few with a front row view of incredible miracles. After Jesus' resurrection and the gift of the Holy Spirit, Peter became a powerful leader in the early church. You might think Peter was gifted with amazing leadership skills, perfect temperament, highly trained and educated, pristine social skills and awareness, impeccable timing for knowing when to listen and when to speak. Maybe you are thinking you have nothing in common with Peter. Do you often feel unqualified? Did you find it not hard to follow Jesus, but yet HARD to follow Jesus? Are you often all in...ready to jump into action, many times prematurely? Do you like to take matters in your own hands? Do you find your intentions are often so much better than your actions? Do you often act before you should? Do you sometimes just miss the point? Do you put your foot in your mouth way more than you should? But do you also love deeply and you want so badly to be doing this life you have been given right? If you can relate, you may be more like Peter than you think. This is the Simon Peter we read about in the Bible. Unqualified on his own, spontaneous, "just fix it" personality, saying all the wrong things at times. And these are the characteristics I see in myself so often. God is ready to use us, quirky personality and all. He is ready to transform our messy weakness into His strength to do mighty things for His kingdom. He is ready to show us it is all Him, so we can relax and step into this freedom. Dive in with me as we explore the personality and evolution of Peter...from a mess to a mighty warrior for the kingdom. We'll look at the life of Simon Peter as recorded in the Bible...his time with Jesus, the incredible impact he has after the death and resurrection of Jesus, and his two letters preserved in the Bible.

  • Release : 2009-10-06
  • ISBN : 0307272710
  • Pages : 386 pages

Download or read book Detective Stories written by Peter Washington and published by Everyman's Library. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, in the appealing and collectible Pocket Classics format, an anthology of beloved, classic detective stories—riveting and irresistibly addictive tales of crimes and those who unravel them. Beginning with modern masters such as Sara Paretsky, Ruth Rendell, and Ian Rankin, this collection works its way back through the golden age of the 1920s and ’30s to the genre’s source in Edgar Allan Poe and Arthur Conan Doyle. The famous detectives who stalk these pages range from the brilliant and eccentric (Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and Poe’s C. Auguste Dupin) to the deceptively unlikely (G. K. Chesterton’s humble priest, Father Brown; and Agatha Christie’s tweedy spinster, Miss Marple); from the tough-guy private eyes created by Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler to accidental bystanders, such as the perceptive neighbors in Susan Glaspell’s haunting “A Jury of Her Peers.” From classic whodunits featuring Erle Stanley Gardner’s Perry Mason and Georges Simenon’s Inspector Maigret to Jorge Luis Borges’s postmodern tribute to Poe in “Death and the Compass,” the stories in this volume will tantalize, perplex, and amaze.

Book Footsteps

Download or read book Footsteps written by Richard Holmes and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1996-04-30 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Holmes knew he had become a true biographer the day his bank bounced a check that he had inadvertently dated 1772. Because for the acclaimed chronicler of Shelley and Coleridge, biography is a physical pursuit, an ardent and arduous retracing of footsteps that may have vanished centuries before. In this gripping book, Holmes takes us from France’s Massif Central, where he followed the route taken by Robert Louis Stevenson and a sweet-natured donkey, to Mary Wollstonecraft’s Revolutionary Paris, to the Italian villages where Percy Shelley tried to cast off the strictures of English morality and marriage. Footsteps is a wonderful exploration of the ties between biographers and their subjects, filled with passion and revelations. “Deeply impressive . . . Footsteps is a singular event in the modern history of biography, and in itself a delightful reading experience.”—Alfred Kazin “This exhilarating book, part biography, part autobiography, shows the biographer as sleuth and huntsman, tracking his subjects through space and time.”—The Observer “A modern masterpiece . . . [Holmes is] the most romantic of contemporary biographers and probably the most revolutionary in spirit and form.”—Michael Holroyd, author of Bernard Shaw

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Footprints of Grace: An Intimate Portrayal of the Footsteps of Jesus is a uniquely rich, suspenseful, tender, and compelling idyllic narrative portraying the gracious footsteps of IsraelaEUR(tm)s long-awaited Messiah, the man called Jesus Christ of Nazareth. In fact, this narrative captured, in graphic scenery, the magnificent signs and miracles that IsraelaEUR(tm)s Messiah demonstrated on the poor, oppressed, and downtrodden in bringing release to the sick and disease. Indeed, Dr. WrightaEUR(tm)s chronicle of JesusaEUR(tm)s teaching and healing and His complete devotion to God, is an intimate, spirit-filled narrative with a host of refreshing dramatic expressions not duplicated in any other previous writings. His narrative not only captures the hearts of the people of Israel, but the heart of the reader as well. Therefore, through GodaEUR(tm)s providential design, it is hoped that in every city, town, and village that Jesus, IsraelaEUR(tm)s long-awaited Messiah, traveled, His glorious footprints of grace were forever engraved into the heart and lives of those whom He touched in seeking to save the lost in carrying out His Judean and Galilean ministries.
