Download or read book Do a Quixote and Other Citizens Gold of Ophir written by Leena Krohn and published by Carcanet Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leena Krohn makes her English-language debut here with two books in one: Dona Quixote and Other Citizens and Gold of Ophir. These are tales from cities in which life is lived under threat of great disaster. Dona Quixote's reality, that of a modern city, is built up out of a series of portraits centering on the mysterious main character, whose presence is like a flame, drawing the dispossessed of the city to her. Gold of Ophir, with its rich fusion of the language and imagery of science, alchemy and the Old Testament, makes a more mythic approach to the city. Consisting of tiny fragments of poetic prose, both books use fantasy to address the enigmatic relationship between reality and consciousness, and their endless interaction. For Leena Krohn, art and literature are 'a yardstick to measure the infinite complexity of life'. Krohn's controlled and lucid writing finds its space in the borderland between fact and fiction, between the short story and the novella.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Solomon, the Bible's wisest king, was possessed of extraordinary wealth. The grand temple he built in Jerusalem was covered in gold. Over the ages, many have sought to find the source of the great king's wealth -- but none with so much flair, wit, or whimsy as Tahir Shah. Intrigued by a map he finds in a shop not far from the site of the temple, Shah assembles a multitude of clues to the location of Solomon's mines. From ancient texts to modern hearsay, all point across the Red Sea to Ethiopia. Shah's trail takes him on a wild ride by taxi, bus, camel, and donkey to the gold-bearing corners of this storied and beautiful country. He interviews the hyena man of Harar, is hauled up on a rope to enter a remote cliff-face monastery, and stumbles upon an illegal gold mine where thousands of men, women, and children dig with their hands. But the hardest leg of the journey is to the accursed mountain of Tullu Wallel, where legend says the devil keeps watch over the entrance to an ancient mine shaft... Book jacket.

Book excerpt: An action-packed archaeological adventure from global bestseller Wilbur Smith “You should know of the legend. At a time when the rocks were soft and the air was misty, there was an abomination and an evil in this place which was put down by our ancestors. They placed a death curse upon these hills and commanded that this evil be cleaned from the earth and from the minds of men, forever.” A lost civilisation. A curse reborn. Dr Ben Kazin has only a blurred photograph and a gut instinct that there is a lost city to uncover somewhere beneath the Botswana cliffs. Soon, a whispered curse and a chance encounter with a local tribe lead him to discover much more than city foundations. The curse, it seems, is real, and will link Ben, his oldest friend, and the woman they both love with a forgotten leader from two thousand years ago, in a city of glory and honour that subsequently disappeared without a trace. But what happened to that ancient civilisation? And what is it that connects that lost empire to Ben, and the violent dangers he must face in the present day?

Distributed by Universal Pictures with a screenplay by Francine Rivers and D.J. Caruso. California’s gold country, 1850. A time when men sold their souls for a bag of gold and women sold their bodies for a place to sleep. Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. Sold into prostitution as a child, she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside. Then she meets Michael Hosea, a man who seeks his Father’s heart in everything. Michael obeys God’s call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, day by day, he defies Angel’s every bitter expectation, until despite her resistance, her frozen heart begins to thaw. But with her unexpected softening comes overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs. Back to the darkness, away from her husband’s pursuing love, terrified of the truth she no longer can deny: her final healing must come from the One who loves her even more than Michael does . . . the One who will never let her go. A powerful retelling of the story of Gomer and Hosea, Redeeming Love is a life-changing story of God’s unconditional, redemptive, all-consuming love. Includes a six-part reading group guide!

Download or read book The Story of Silver written by William L. Silber and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the story of silver's transformation from soft money during the nineteenth century to hard asset today, and how manipulations of the white metal by American president Franklin D. Roosevelt during the 1930s and by the richest man in the world, Texas oil baron Nelson Bunker Hunt, during the 1970s altered the course of American and world history. FDR pumped up the price of silver to help jump start the U.S. economy during the Great Depression, but this move weakened China, which was then on the silver standard, and facilitated Japan's rise to power before World War II. Bunker Hunt went on a silver-buying spree during the 1970s to protect himself against inflation and triggered a financial crisis that left him bankrupt. Silver has been the preferred shelter against government defaults, political instability, and inflation for most people in the world because it is cheaper than gold. The white metal has been the place to hide when conventional investments sour, but it has also seduced sophisticated investors throughout the ages like a siren. This book explains how powerful figures, up to and including Warren Buffett, have come under silver's thrall, and how its history guides economic and political decisions in the twenty-first century"--Publisher's description

Download or read book 2nd Esdras written by Timothy Schwab and published by . This book was released on 2024-04-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2nd Esdras is one of the most powerful prophetic displays in history yet mostly hidden today from plain sight in the church. As it claims authorship from the Prophet Ezra 400 years prior to Messiah, it even foretells His birth in 400 years from that date as well as identifies Him as Yahusha in name. It preserves the trail of the Lost Tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in which we have provided maps and charts including other scripture and history which serve as the foundation for such location. This will blow many away as we can know where the Lost Tribes migrated en masse. Experience the origin of many portions of Revelation and we will prove well before Revelation was written. The Final Eagle Empire prophecy, a continuation of Daniel's prophecy of the Four Beasts will raise the hairs on the back of your neck when you realize just how close to home it is today and we provide a chart with our interpretation of its three ruling heads. Once most have completed reading this curation, they will wonder why we have not had this knowledge all along. We will vet this book and 1st Esdras and prove it was written prior to the New Testament and is the origin of the words of Messiah and the Apostles many times especially the Book of Revelation. There is a reason this book as well as 1st Esdras both remain in some Bibles today as scripture and their historicity is not debatable as they appear in the 1560 Geneva Bible and Original, Authorized 1611 King James Version. Translators did not waste their time translating this into English as they did scripture for no reason. If you are KJV Only, you may want to look at the original 1611 version which included both of these books. In this annotation of 2nd Esdras with 1st Esdras, we have restored the Original 1611 King James Version and revised the English, curated margin notes, and provided detailed explanations including charts, maps, etc. We have also restored the Hebrew name of YHWH, Yahuah, for "the Lord" throughout as well as other Hebrew names in some cases. This should be done in all of scripture as His very name is there in Hebrew over 6,800 times in the Old Testament. Our introduction unveils our research on who lived in Qumran (not Essenes), the identity of the Qumran Priests, who defiled the Temple, vets Hanukkah, and Purim as well the Book of Esther, Messiah in Esdras, the name of YHWH in Esdras, etc. We are not scholars and this is an educated layman's view of 1st and 2nd Esdras which many will find more valuable than most scholarly approaches. This work will teach and draw conclusions. In these days of increasing knowledge, some such knowledge is actually ancient knowledge restored. We believe you will find this is the case with 2nd Esdras as well as 1st Esdras. As the international authors of The Book of Jubilees: The Torah Calendar, The Search for King Solomon's Treasure: The Lost Isles of Gold and the Garden of Eden and Ophir Philippines Coffee Table Book, Timothy Schwab and Anna Zamoranos joined by their research team from The God Culture have once again curated another book tied to the Qumran Scrolls which will enlighten many. Review their findings and prove all things, hold fast that which is good (1 Th. 5:21).
