Whited Sepulchres

By: Chris Grummitt

Established Denominations stand on the brink of destruction but is this God’s will? Examination of recent Papal documents shows that the abdication of Pope Benedict and the acceptance of Pope Francis were contrived to halt the haemorrhaging of congregations. The question is why? The protestant church which is seemingly poles apart on theology...

Henry IV

Henry IV

By: Chris Given-Wilson

Henry IV (1399–1413), the son of John of Gaunt, duke of Lancaster, seized the English throne at the age of thirty-two from his cousin Richard II and held it until his death, aged forty-five, when he was succeeded by his son, Henry V. This comprehensive and nuanced biography restores to his rightful place a king often overlooked in favor of his illustrious progeny. Henry faced the usual problems of usurpers: foreign wars, rebellions, and plots, as well as the ambitions and demands of the Lancastrian retainers who had helped him win the throne. By 1406 his rule was broadly established, and although he became ill shortly after this and never fully recovered, he retained ultimate power until his death. Using a wide variety of previously untapped archival materials, Chris Given-Wilson reveals a cultured, extravagant, and skeptical monarch who crushed opposition ruthlessly but never quite succeeded in satisfying the expectations of his own supporters.

Coalition Armor vs Iraqi Forces

Iraq 2003–06

By: Chris McNab

An illustrated study of how coalition armor in Iraq in 2003–06 handled a unique multi-threat environment, from enemy armor to IEDs. On 20 March 2003, Coalition forces launched the invasion of Iraq on a massive scale. Their armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) faced an uncertain level of resistance, and soon had to overcome a wide range of enemy threats. These included tank vs tank clashes during the first days of the invasion (most famously at Basra and Mahmoudiyah), and subsequently the dangers posed by enemy rocket-propelled grenades, cannon fire, antitank guided missiles, and improvised explosive devices. This vital new study covers both the opening clashes between opposing AVFs and the tactics developed by Iraqi insurgents seeking to neutralize Coalition superiority. Featuring full color photos, battle scenes, weaponry, and tactical illustrations, it draws upon first-hand accounts and official post-battle analyses to examine how Coalition forces responded to the change in the nature of the threats. Among the topics addressed are the coordination between Coalition infantry and air power; how dealing with roadside bombs in Iraq resulted in changes to equipment, tactics, and force structure; and the lessons learned for future warfare.

Richard III

England's Most Controversial King

By: Chris Skidmore

From acclaimed historian Chris Skidmore comes the authoritative biography of Richard III, England’s most controversial king, a man alternately praised as a saint and cursed as a villain. Richard III is one of English history’s best known and least understood monarchs. Immortalized by Shakespeare as a hunchbacked murderer, the discovery in 2012 of his skeleton in a Leicester parking lot re-ignited debate over the true character of England’s most controversial king. Richard was born into an age of brutality, when civil war gripped the land and the Yorkist dynasty clung to the crown with their fingertips. Was he really a power-crazed monster who killed his nephews, or the victim of the first political smear campaign conducted by the Tudors? In the first full biography of Richard III for fifty years, Chris Skidmore draws on new manuscript evidence to reassess Richard’s life and times. Richard III examines in intense detail Richard’s inner nature and his complex relations with those around him to unravel the mystery of the last English monarch to die on the battlefield.

The Fat of the Land

Dieting Through God's Provision

By: Chris Grummitt

Diet and healthy eating are â€ ̃hot topics ' in the Western world as society is increasingly ravaged by the two extremes of, at one end, obesity, and at the other anorexia and the size zero mentality. In the past year US Scientists have concluded that dieting is pointless, perhaps even dangerous, and British scientists have discovered the â€ ̃fat ' gene which in 16% of the population can increase the chances of becoming obese by 70%. In this unique book, part testimony and part text book, former research scientist Chris Grummit describes how in his 60th year, God transformed his mind, attitudes and understanding; enabling him to lose many pounds in weight and radically improve his overall health â€“ all without enduring a painful and artificial â€ ̃diet '.

Sweet Sanctity

Sweet Sanctity

By: Chris Grummitt

During many years on the mission field Chris Grummitt marvelled at how God's grace was poured out on seemingly godless couples, enabling him to take us on a journey through one of the most controversial books of the Bible. In doing so the Song of Songs opened up a world of spiritual consummation suggesting it is for everyone and every bit as rewarding as its earthy sexual counterpart. Does not Jesus say He will be the bridegroom returning for his bride? The understanding of this apparent mystery has never been so important for Christians than today, where the very definition of earthly marriage appears to be under threat, as is its sanctity. Does promiscuous behaviour threaten the core hope of salvation? Sweet Sanctity not only answers these and many other questions but offers practical hope particularly to the lonely, lost and single who believe such bliss unattainable.
