Hieronymus Bosch left behind himself no correspondence or diaries, and not anything is identified of his character or his feelings on the significance of his paintings. His birthday has not been determined with confidence. He not at all dated his works and may have signed only few of them. In the past it was habitually supposed that Bosch's paintings was inspired by medieval heresies. In the 20-th century, researchers have come to sight Bosch's vision as fewer unbelievable, and acknowledged that his art reflects the conventional religious faith systems of his time. His images of sinning people, his view of Heaven and Hell are now perceived as consistent with late medieval didactic literature. It is in the main acknowledged that Bosch's art was produced to educate exact moral and spiritual norms, and that his images provide precise worth. Nerveless, some critics notice Bosch as example of medieval surrealist, and parallels are repeatedly made with the modern Spanish artist Salvador Dali.
FULLY UPDATED Arron Banks enjoyed a life of happy anonymity flogging car insurance in Bristol until he dipped his toes into the sharkinfested waters of politics and decided to plunge right in. Charging into battle for Brexit, he tore up the political rule book, sinking £8 million of his personal fortune into a mad-cap campaign targeting ordinary voters up and down the country. His anti-establishment crusade upset everyone from Victoria Beckham to NASA and left MPs open-mouthed. Lurching from comedy to crisis (often several times a day), he found himself in the glare of the media spotlight, fending off daily bollockings from Nigel Farage and po-faced MPs. From talking Brexit with Trump and trying not to embarrass the Queen, to courting communists and wasting a fortune on a pop concert that descended into farce, this is his honest, uncensored and highly entertaining diary of the campaign that changed the course of history.

Packed with fascinating facts and using original source material about the ship, this is a perfect introduction to the Cutty Sark. Constructed on the Clyde in 1869 for the Jock Willis Shipping Line, Cutty Sark was one of the last tea clippers to be built and one of the fastest. Cutty Sark spent just a few years on the tea routes before the opening of the Suez Canal and the increasing use of steamships made clippers unprofitable on shorter routes. It was turned to the trade in wool from Australia, where for ten years she held the record time for a journey to Britain. After finishing her time in service as cargo ship, and then a training and cadet ship, it was transferred to permanent dry dock at Greenwich, London, for public display. This handy and illuminating pocket manual collates original documents to tell the fascinating story of how the legendary Cutty Sark was commissioned, her design and building, life on board and her notable journeys.

A true story of courage, love and friendship set against the darkest days of the Second World War. When author, Rik Arron, stumbled unknowingly into the life of ninety-year-old Holocaust survivor, Sam Gontarz, he didn’t realise that they would go on a journey together into the heart of the ghettos and concentration camps of Nazi Germany. This journey would change both their lives forevermore; it was one that would illuminate some of the worst days in human history with courage, friendship, love, and a powerful message that is needed more than ever in our modern world. The result is this book, which tells the incredible life story of Sam Gontarz, from his childhood in Poland to his confinement in a Jewish Ghetto, his time in concentration camps including the infamous Auschwitz, his liberation, his time looking for a home, and how he built a loving family in the United Kingdom. While dealing with dark subject matter, this book is a celebration of survival and spirit when faced with appalling adversity. As a first-hand source describing the horrors of the treatment of the Jewish people in the lead up to and throughout the duration of the Second World War, it is an unmissable addition to any historical bookshelf.
Being a disciple of Jesus is an issue of devotion rather than duty. Before Peter began the most important act of his life--discipleship--Jesus didn't ask him, "How many chapters of the Torah did you read today?" or "Are you attending services at the synagogue each week?" or "Did you give your tithe today?" No, before Peter began his journey of discipleship, Jesus asked him, "Do you love Me?" Arron Chambers thinks that we are asking new disciples of Christ the wrong questions and that it's time to start truly following the example of Christ by asking of disciples what Christ asked of Peter: devotion, not duty. In Devoted, Arron presents a new paradigm for discipleship: falling in love with Jesus. This approach to discipleship emphasizes passion for Jesus as opposed to a plan for following Jesus.
Identity precedes purpose—once we understand who we are, we more clearly understand why we are here. Let Remember Who You Are help you understand how your identity is crucial to fulfilling your destiny. Questions for personal reflection and group discussion included.
