Download or read book The Orpheus Clock written by Simon Goodman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The passionate, true story of one man's quest to reclaim what the Nazis stole from his family--their beloved art collection--and to restore their legacy. Simon Goodman's grandparents came from German Jewish banking dynasties and perished in concentration camps. And that's almost all he knew--his father rarely spoke of their family history or heritage. But when he passed away, and Simon received his father's papers, a story began to emerge. The Gutmanns, as they were known then, rose from a small Bohemian hamlet to become one of Germany's most powerful banking families. They also amassed a world-class art collection that included works by Degas, Renoir, Botticelli, and many others, including a Renaissance clock engraved with scenes from the legend of Orpheus. The Nazi regime snatched everything the Gutmanns had labored to build: their art, their wealth, their social standing, and their very lives. Simon grew up in London with little knowledge of his father's efforts to recover their family's possessions. It was only after his father's death that Simon began to piece together the clues about the stolen legacy and the Nazi looting machine. He learned much of the collection had gone to Hitler and Goring; other works had been smuggled through Switzerland, sold and resold, with many pieces now in famous museums. More still had been recovered by Allied forces only to be stolen again by bureaucrats-- European governments quietly absorbed thousands of works of art into their own collections. Through painstaking detective work across two continents, Simon proved that many pieces belonged to his family, and successfully secured their return-- the first Nazi looting case to be settled in the United States. Goodman's dramatic story reveals a rich family history almost obliterated by the Nazis. It is not only the account of a twenty-year long detective hunt for family treasure, but an unforgettable tale of redemption and restoration.
Download or read book My Grandfather s Blessings written by Rachel Naomi Remen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2001-04-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In My Grandfather's Blessings, Rachel Naomi Remen, a cancer physician and master storyteller, uses her luminous stories to remind us of the power of our kindness and the joy of being alive. Dr. Remen's grandfather, an orthodox rabbi and scholar of the Kabbalah, saw life as a web of connection and knew that everyone belonged to him, and that he belonged to everyone. He taught her that blessing one another is what fills our emptiness, heals our loneliness, and connects us more deeply to life. Life has given us many more blessings than we have allowed ourselves to receive. My Grandfather's Blessings is about how we can recognize and receive our blessings and bless the life in others. Serving others heals us. Through our service we will discover our own wholeness—and the way to restore hidden wholeness in the world.

Download or read book The Musings of Grandfather Clock written by Michael D. Carothers and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grandfather Clock’s Purpose These poems are not to evangelize but to show that there is God. He wants us to be his freely and without reservation. But that takes time and experience. Not by my experience but yours. The human experience will draw us closer or away from the possibility that there is God. Paul of Tarsus states in the book of Romans, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power, and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so they are without excuse.” What is it that there is no understanding of his existence for many? It is not nature, but man’s preference. God has principle. His principle is that we don’t want and ignore. He rubs us the wrong way. There is a summary on “Principle or Preference” at the beginning of the book to consider. There is a war. The war has manifested itself with man warring against man. There is also a war of man against God. We want to go our own way free of God. Our world is chaotic and disturbed for countless reasons. What has happened to the song in our heart free of worry and anxiety? Relationship is the key. A relationship between you and God and not between you, someone else, and God. Oh! To sing and whistle again. It can happen through peace with God. The Musings of Grandfather Clock show God is love and not religious. Man is religious. We place him in our realm of purpose, enslaving the hearts and minds of men. God is love, but on his terms. These poems are meant to trigger poetic statements of God, social issues, and humor.

Download or read book My Way written by Moana Hope and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moana Hope is one of fourteen children. No fan of dolls or dresses, footy has always been her passion, and she would spend hours playing kick-to-kick with her dad and brothers at the local park. When her father was diagnosed with terminal cancer, Moana cared for him until his death four years later. Footy and cricket provided an escape from the demands of domestic life, and she made state and national teams for both sports. She also began to explore her Maori heritage, getting tattoos that represented the dearest people in her life. But as women's football became more popular, being good at the game wasn't enough—players started being pressured about the way they looked. Moana refused to grow her hair or cover her tatts, and for the first time in her life felt sidelined by the game. But later, inspired by a women's exhibition game, she realised what she was missing and returned with gusto to the game she loved. As a powerful full-forward who can thrill crowds by taking big marks and kicking spectacular goals, Moana was signed by Collingwood as one of its two marquee players for the inaugural AFL Women's competition in 2017. A high-flying athlete who is grounded by remarkable selflessness, Moana Hope is an inspiration for women and girls everywhere. My Way is her story.

Download or read book My Grandfather s Clock written by Graeme Davison and published by Miegunyah Press. This book was released on 2024-02-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great-aunt's bequest - a 200-year-old grandfather clock - sends historian Graeme Davison on a journey deep into his father's family's past. From their tribal homeland in the Scottish Borders he follows them to the garrison town of Carlisle, from industrial Birmingham to Edwardian Australia, and from the Great War to his own suburban childhood. This is the story of an ordinary family's journey from frontier warfare and dispossession through economic turmoil and emigration to modest prosperity. At each step, we are led to reflect on the puzzles of personal identity and the mystery of time. Based on a lifetime of creative scholarship, My Grandfather's Clock is a moving testament to the power of family history to illuminate the present.
