This small book is the third book of one hundred sonnets which stand in the shade of Shakespeare. I write this because I am only a shadow of the 'Bards' pen and, in all my years of writing and reading poetry, I have not yet seen anyone to match his craft. I hope you enjoyed the first and second volume of my Sonnets and I trust you will find the same enjoyment in this book and might reasonably await my next volume of contemporary Sonnets with a same appreciation. I thank you for your time and wish you a happy reading. Ron S King.

I have entitled this book of some 300 Sonnets... 'A SHADE OF SHAKESPEARE'. This stems from my admiration for the 'Bard' and his works. If it's said that I have tried to imitate his style then, of course I have. It is soon noticed that, while each sonnet does have three quatrains and an ending couplet, while each line has ten syllables to each, I do not borrow the need of any iambic pentameters. In this light I would call my sonnets 'Contemporary Sonnets.' This work covers the three small books of 100 sonnets in each which are already out there in public domain. I trust that you read and enjoy this book and find it a delicate company during an evening's read. Ron S King.

Unleash the Power of God's Truth in Your Daily Life From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is full of life-changing truth. But to fully experience the power of God's Word, you need to go beyond merely knowing the facts and learn how to let them transform you. In this new resource, noted author and biblical scholar Ron Rhodes takes you through each book of the Bible, breaking down complex concepts into practical applications and offering helpful insights for each. For example, key applications found in 1 John include: Our fellowship with God hinges on walking in the light as He is in the light. When we fall into sin and fall out of fellowship with God, confession to God is the remedy that restores our fellowship. When we sin, Jesus is our defense attorney—and He never loses a case in God's court. Our fellowship with God is thereby protected. Word studies, quotes from famous Christians, cross-references, and more are included in every profound chapter to help you dig deeper into each transformational concept. As you put God's key principles into practice, you'll experience more than ever all the benefits the Bible has to offer.

This story begins in the County of Cork in Ireland in the 1850s, at the time of potato famine. Life was hard and austere, with many of Ireland's young seeking to emigrate abroad, to escape starvation and to find work in the 'Promised' lands of America and Australia, though many also sought work in England, in Liverpool and London. This book describes the life and times of Michael O'Brien and his family, his wife Mary and his two children, Sam and Beth. It tells of Michael's need to leave his home and travel to London with his family in the hope of finding work in London. The only job he finds is as a 'Hole-Man', working in the open 'Cesspits', in diabolical conditions. The book goes on to follow the lives of Mary and then onto the daughter, Beth and finally to the son, Sam.

This book gives an insight into the hilarious antics of some elderly folk in a residential home. It has to be understood that none of the characters exist and the write is very 'Tongue in Cheek', with no intention of portraying what goes on in this book as intending to portray reality. This write is reality gone mad and derived from the author's imagination. In this book the reader will meet such characters as the formidable Mrs. Anderson, Humpy-Jack and Jim-Jams, elderly folk whom represent those that Doctors and Nursing Staff would not care to meet, they are the lost souls of St. Trinians and the residential home is where they are placed, to continue a life of mayhem. Ron S King.

The "Dark Side of Shakespeare" trilogy by W. Ron Hess has been his 20-year undertaking to try to fill-in many of the gaps in knowledge of Shakespeare's personality and times. The first two volumes investigated wide-ranging topics, including the key intellectual attributes that Shakespeare exhibited in his works, including the social and political events of the 1570s to early-1600s. This was when Hess believes the Bard's works were being "originated" (the earliest phases of artistry, from conception or inspiration to the first of multiple iterations of "writing"). Hess highlights a peculiar fascination that the Bard had with the half-brother of Spain's Philip II, the heroic Don Juan of Austria, or in 1571 "the Victor of Lepanto." From that fascination, as determined by characters based on Don Juan in the plays (e.g., the villain "Don John" in "Much Ado")and other matters, Hess even made so bold as to propose a series of phases from the mid-1570s to mid-80s in which he feels each Shakespeare play had been originated, or some early form of each play then existed -- if not in writing, at least in the Bard's imagination. Thus, the creative process Hess describes is a vastly more protracted on than most Shakespeare scholars would admit to -- the absurd notion that the Bard would jot off the lines of a work in a few days or weeks and then immediately have it performed on the public stage or published shortly thereafter still dominates orthodox dating systems for the canon. Hess draws on the works of many other scholars for using "topical allusions" within each work in order to set practical limits for when the "origination" and subsequent "alterations" of each play occurred. In the trilogy's Volume III, Hess continues to amplify a heroic "knight-errant" personality type that Shakespeare's very "pen-name" may have been drawn from, a type which envied and transcended the brutal chivalry of Don Juan. This was channeled into a patriotic anti-Spanish and pro-British imperial spirit -- particularly with regard to reforming and improving the English language so that it could rival the Greco-Roman, Italian, and Frenchpoetic traditions -- one-upping the best that the greats of antiquity and the Renaissance had achieved in literature. In fact, as vast as the story is that Hess tells in his three volumes, there is a huge volume of material he is making available out of print (on his webpage at http://home.earthlink.net/~beornshall/index.html and via a "Volume IV" that he plans to offer on CD for a nominal cost via his e-mail BeornsHall@earthlink.net). Among this added material is a searchable 1,000-page Chronological listing of "Everything" that Hess deems relevant to Shakespeare and his age, or to the providing of the canon to modern times. Hess feels that discernable patterns can be detected through that chronology that help to illuminate the roles of others in the Bard's circle, such as Anthony Munday and Thomas Heywood. The network of 16th and 17th century "Stationers" (printers, publishers, and book sellers) and their often curious doings provide many of those patterns. Hess invites his readers to help to continuously update the Chronology and other materials, so that those can remain worthwhile research resources for all to use. For, the mysteries of Shakespeare and his age can only be unraveled through fully understanding the patterns within.
This 2000 book addresses the discrepancy between the developing economy of England and the stagnant legal framework of business organization between 1720 and 1844.
First full-length survey of Reading Abbey, one of the most important ecclesiastical buildings of the Middle Ages. Reading Abbey was built by King Henry I to be a great architectural statement and his own mausoleum, as well as a place of resort and a staging point for royal itineraries for progresses in the west and south-west of England. Fromthe start it was envisaged as a monastic site with a high degree of independence from the church hierarchy; it was granted enormous holdings of land and major religious relics to attract visitors and pilgrims, and no expense wasspared in providing a church comparable in size and splendour with anything else in England. However, in architectural terms, the abbey has, until recently, remained enigmatic, mainly because of the efficiency with which itwas destroyed at the Reformation. Only recently has it become possible to bring together the scattered evidence - antiquarian drawings and historic records along with a new survey of the standing remains - into a coherent picture.This richly illustrated volume provides the first full account of the abbey, from foundation to dissolution, and offers a new virtual reconstruction of the church and its cloister; it also shows how the abbey formed the backdropto many key historical events. Ron Baxter is the Research Director of the Corpus of Romanesque Sculpture in Britain and Ireland.
