Roundabout at Bangalow

By: Shirley Walker

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Exploring four generations of life in Australia, this intricate personal history shows the insularity of small towns, rigid class and caste divisions, and the effects of two world wars on Australian lives. Told with humor and dry wit, these extraordinary stories of pioneering struggles, deep religious divisions, and conflict within the family help navigate the history of Australia—from the abundance of the eastern Byron Bay hinterland to the hardships of the northern soldier-settler farm in North Queensland. Fascinating and engaging, this familial recollection is a revealing study of Australia's past.

Strength for Life's Journey

Twelve-Week Spiritual Meditations & Special Days Devotional

By: Shirley J. Inkton Bowers

Strength for Lifes Journey is a twelve-week devotional filled with meditations that will breathe spiritual life into the thirsty soul. It serves as a conduit for strength to combat the trials that life so freely distributes. Although uninvited, trials come regardless of religious affiliations, titles, race, gender, or socioeconomic status but so do Gods grace, mercy and wisdom. The family relationship that once existed in the church is slowly dissipating and people appear to find it easier to stay home. It is my hope and prayer that as you meditate on these devotions your hope, faith, and trust in God, as well as the church, will be renewed, and you will receive strength to complete your spiritual journey. Strength for Lifes Journey can: help you embrace Gods strength in good, as well as difficult times strengthen your faith-walk increase your spiritual growth and awareness remind you that you are not alone give you hope for tomorrow

Gurdjieff

By: John Shirley

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Gurdjieff

By: John Shirley

A dramatic and literate introduction to one of the twentieth century's most influential and intriguing spiritual teachers. Born in the shifting border between Turkey and Russia in 1866, G. I. Gurdjieff is a man who would continually straddle borders-between East and West, between man and something higher than man, between the ancient teachings of esoteric schools and the modern application of those ideas in contemporary life. In many respects-from the concept of group meetings to the mysterious workings of the enneagram to his critique of humanity as existing in a state of sleep-Gurdjieff pioneered the culture of spiritual search that has taken root in the West today. While many of Gurdjieff's students-including Frank Lloyd Wright, Katharine Mansfield, and P. D. Ouspensky-are well known, few understand this figure possessed of complex writings and sometimes confounding methods. In Gurdjieff: An Introduction to His Life and Ideas, the acclaimed novelist John Shirley-one of the founders of the cyberpunk genre-presents a lively, reliable explanation of how to approach the sage and his ideas. In accessible, dramatic prose Shirley retells that which we know of Gurdjieff's life; he surveys the teacher's methods and the lives of his key students; and he helps readers to enter the unparalleled originality of this remarkable teacher.

Swearing and Perjury in Shakespeare's Plays

By: Frances A Shirley

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Swearing and Perjury in Shakespeare's Plays

By: Frances A Shirley

First published in 1979. How do the elements of swearing and perjury work in Shakespeare's plays? What effect did Shakespeare intend when he wrote them? How did they contribute to the delineation of character? These questions are investigated by combining a history of ideas approach with close textual analysis. The book begins by bringing together material from a wide range of contemporary sources in order to create a sense of popular awareness of oaths in Queen Elizabeth's time. Out of this emerges a scale of the relative strength of various oaths, an awareness of the ways in which people regarded perjury, and an appreciation of the attempts to prohibit profanity. Shakespeare's work is then examined against this background.

The Vine

A Wide-Angle Panorama of the Church from Eternity to Eternity

By: Shirley Harder

The Vine is not an apologetic. It is not a self-help book, nor is it about saving others. It may be a declaration an amalgamation of thoughts knit together with the motif of a vine a theological algorithm leading to the Churchs destiny as the Bride of Christ. The major premise of The Vine is that of Gods overarching plan and purpose for the church, the Bride of Christ. It follows a minor motif of the nature and husbandry of a grapevine. The Vine explores Gods covenants, dispensations, and revelations, upon which the life of the faith-vine dependsa novel approach to the beginning, growth, and destiny of the church. Combining the two premises leads to a fulfilling conclusion.

The Hunt for Happiness

Conversations on Truth

By: Steve Shirley

The Hunt for Happiness explores what it means to be happy, drawing the reader into a way of thinking that respects every individual and cherishes every life. Using personal stories, fictional conversations, and diverse characters, humanity’s fascination with rulemaking and shunning others is exposed as a common foe of our relationships with each other, our ability to help each other be happy and content, and, perhaps, our relationships with the divine. Throughout, conversations seeking truth build bridges from ancient texts including Jewish, Christian, and Islamic scripture to modernity with an eye towards the promise of the Kingdom of God and the notion that all humans are beloved of the Almighty just as we are. Breaking down the walls that divide us through thinking things out is the main theme of The Hunt for Happiness. A bright future awaits humanity unless we reject the opportunity to learn about and from each other, and permit further encroachment of dystopian realities in our world. Such dystopian realities have always been with us; the question is whether or not we will break the cycle.

Jesus Lives

Jesus Lives

By: Shirley Mitchell

Are you confident in your faith that Jesus is the Son of God? Or do you want to know Him even more? Do you want to discover new things, unveil mysteries, and deepen your understanding of your Savior? How did Jesus of Nazareth change the lives of the people He encountered and impact mankind, generation after generation, unlike no other person in history? Why did four fishermen lay down their nets and leave everything to follow Him? Why did Matthew change from a tax collector hated by Jewish society to a faithful disciple who targeted his Gospel for the Jews? How did John change from a disciple who desired greatness to a man who wouldn't write his own name in his Gospel? What was it like to hear Jesus teach or to recognize Jesus' voice? How would you have handled the night of terror in the garden, His arrest, trial, and then crucifixion? To answer these questions, Jesus Lives spans the life of Christ from the beginning (John 1:2) to His birth, through His life on earth as Rabbi, Miracle Worker, Storyteller, Jewish Messiah, and Passover Lamb, and that He is our Covenant Partner and Coming King, and much more. This study is for you to have a fresh revelation of Jesus, to get your identity through Christ, to develop intimacy with God, and to worship Him passionately! Join the adventure of Jesus Lives! This 10-week in-depth, interactive study includes daily assignments and 11 weekly video sessions, portions of which were taped in Israel and Egypt, the two countries where Jesus lived. Shirley Mitchell has a passion for people to be transformed by knowing God through His Word. She has served God as a women's ministry leader and a Bible study leader in Lexington, Kentucky.

From the Riverbank to Middle Earth and Beyond

By: Pat Shirley

I received Kenneth Grahames The Wind in the Willows as a present on my seventh birthday. My mother probably read it to me at least fifty times in the next few years. A cousin suggested it as a gift for me. One of her teachers fi nished out class time reading aloud from her favorite books, of which The Wind in the Willows was one. I later learned that my cousins teacher continued to read it every other year for the rest of her life. Her devotion to it and the comment of an adult fictional character on TV that The Wind in the Willows was her favorite book convinced me that it isnt just for children and that I could go back to it. I now read it once a year.

Misfire

A Story of Ginger Phillips

By: Shirley Burton

Ginger Phillips was so moved by Brad's earnest pleadings for her hand in marriage that she consented. She was comfortable in his love--perhaps too comfortable for deeper intimacy. Her intrigue with gods and goddesses resulted in a new narrative away from her blissful life. Her study of mythology indicated that Hera, goddess of marriage, was active throughout her life. In Brad's life, Ginger believed Dionysus was an influence in him, and not in a good way, for his work life. Nevertheless, Ginger and Brad, two opposites, joined together in matrimony. Such a pairing could have been no other way for Ginger because dreams and mythology converged for her to conclude these archetypes were at work in their fate.

Cakes for the Queen of Heaven

An Exploration of Womenýs Power Past, Present and Future

By: Shirley Ann Ranck

Cakes for the Queen of Heaven explores the relationship between women's religious history and the personal issues that arise in women living in this patriarchal society. Women struggle with issues of body image, troubled mother-daughter relationships, sexual freedom and access to power. We need to know that there was a time when the female body was sacred; that there once was a long-lasting religion in which the chief divine actors were a mother and her daughter; that in very ancient times women had significant power in their societies; that although patriarchal societies have oppressed women for centuries, there have always been strong and talented women. Our female history has been erased and trivialized for too long. In this book we meet ancient goddesses and their stories from around the world, real women in ancient Sumer, in Greece, in Judaism and in Christianity. In Cakes for the Queen of Heaven the past is before us, the women are there, and they help us change our lives.

Re-Constructing the Book

Literary Texts in Transmission

By: Maureen Bell,Shirley Chew,Simon Eliot

This title was first published in 2001. Literary critics, textual editors and bibliographers, and historians of publishing have hitherto tended to publish their research as if in separate fields of enquiry. The purpose of this volume is to bring together contributions from these fields in a dialogue rooted in the transmission of texts. Arranged chronologically, so as to allow the use of individual sections relevant to period literature courses, the book offers students and teachers a set of essays designed to reflect these approaches and to signal their potential for fruitful integration. Some of the essays answer the demand "Show me what literary critics (or textual editor; or book historians) do and how they do it", and stand as examples of the different concerns, methodologies and strategies employed. Others draw attention to the potential of the approaches in combination.

In God's Image

For Teenagers and New Believers

By: Shirley P. Soon

As a Sunday School teacher and church librarian for over 25years, Shirley had noticed a need for student information concerning Bible Theology and the Gospel message, along with development of a Christian’s relationship with God. Three years ago, in 2014, Shirley started to write Bible Articles to teach Christian High School teenagers about Bible Theology and important elements of the Gospel. Having read for many years, some of the theological works of strong early Christians, Shirley felt the Lord’s leading to provide material that teenagers and beginning adult Christians could easily understand. Thus, came about this book. As a lay person, Shirley does not claim complete knowledge of the Bible and its teachings. Any mistakes in not giving credit to other writers are not intentional. Shirley welcomes criticism and correction. The book material is meant to add to and supplement current Sunday School curriculums, and not to replace them.

Shirley Wells The Dylan Scott Mystery Series Collection 1

An Anthology

By: Shirley Wells

This series is getting stronger with every book."—Dear Author on Silent Witness This new collection includes the first 5 titles in The Dylan Scott Mystery series by Shirley Wells. PRESUMED DEAD Dismissed in disgrace from the police force for assaulting a suspect, Dylan Scott has no job, his wife has thrown him out and—worse luck—his mother has moved in. So when Holly Champion begs him to investigate the disappearance of her mother thirteen years ago, he can't say no, even though it means taking up residence in the dreary Lancashire town of Dawson's Clough for the duration. Although the local police still believe Anita Champion took off for a better life, Dylan's inquiries turn up plenty of potential suspects. But one sleepy Northern town can keep a lot of secrets. DEAD SILENT Ten months ago, Samantha Hunt set off for work…and was never seen again. Dylan Scott wants to believe the young woman's alive—by all accounts Sam was a lovely girl, devoted to her younger stepsisters, well-liked at her work, in love with her boyfriend. But as usual not everything is as it seems in sleepy Dawson's Clough. Sam's boyfriend has a violent past. She may have been having an affair with her boss. And Dylan can't shake the feeling that her stepfather is hiding something. Who wanted to silence Sam, and why? SILENT WITNESS After his ex-wife bled to death in a bathtub covered in his fingerprints, the case against Aleksander Kaminski seemed open and shut. Though sentenced to life in prison, he swears he's innocent, a claim supported by his current wife. Having been unjustly jailed himself, P.I. Dylan Scott is compelled to pursue the case; if there's even a small chance the man is innocent, he has to help. The other obvious suspect—the victim's second husband—has a watertight alibi. But Dylan has a strong hunch that as usual, there's more going on than meets the eye in Dawson's Clough. But if Kaminski didn't murder his childhood sweetheart, who did? DEAD CALM Detective Dylan Scott thinks cruising well above the Arctic Circle in November is nothing short of madness; he agrees to the Norwegian holiday to keep his wife and mother happy. At least the biggest problem he'll have to deal with is boredom. But that boredom quickly dissipates when the unpleasant elderly woman in the neighboring cabin is found dead. Everyone thinks Hanna Larsen had a heart attack. Everyone except Dylan. Dylan is convinced there's a killer aboard the Midnight Sun—a killer who may strike again. DYING ART Dylan Scott vowed never to return to the dreary town of Dawson's Clough. But one visit from a beautiful ex-lover and he's back in Lancashire, investigating a possible murder. The police think Prue Murphy died during a burglary gone wrong, but her sister isn't so sure—and neither is Dylan. After all, the killer overlooked the only valuable thing in Prue's flat. Who could have wanted the quirky young woman dead, and why? Dylan's search for answers takes him to France, where he discovers Prue's family didn't know her as well as they thought they did. And the more he digs, the more secrets he unearths—secrets someone would kill to keep buried.

The Search for Reagan

The Appealing Intellectual Conservatism of Ronald Reagan

By: Craig Shirley

Never before has anyone explored the mind, soul, and heart of Ronald Reagan. The Search for Reagan explores the challenges and controversies in Reagan’s life and how he successfully dealt with each, depicting a man who was never as conservative as some conservatives wanted him to be, but rather as conservative as he was comfortable being—a man who wanted to win on his own terms and integrity. Ronald Reagan was a singularly unique man and conservative who championed a wildly successful revolution—leading to more freedom and less government for the American people and to the fall of communism, while boosting American morale, which had been his three big goals. He was the first president in many years who believed optimism from the Oval Office had a direct bearing on the affairs of the nation. As a consequence, he left office more popular than when he entered with a whopping 73 percent approval. He is beloved even today as his presidential library is visited far more than any other presidential library, by more than five million people each year. He understood that American conservatism was based upon the individual and not the group. He is still regarded as one of the most admired men in America. The range of Reagan scholarship by virtue of books sold about him continues to grow. In his presidency, he solved the mystery of high inflation that had bedeviled his predecessor, high interest rates, and high gas prices. He created over twenty million new jobs, and the number of American millionaires grew from 4,414 to 34,944. He quite literally changed our world for the better and is considered by most historians to be one of our four greatest presidents, alone with George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Roosevelt.

Murfreesboro in the Civil War

By: Michael R. Bradley,Shirley Farris Jones

As the Civil War unfolded, Murfreesboro became hotly contested by Confederate and Union forces. Both sides occupied the town for significant periods, with power changing hands as the fighting raged. Punctuated by events like Nathan Bedford Forrests raid on Union forces in July 1862, Jefferson Daviss visit and the wedding of General John Hunt Morgan and Martha Ready, wartime Murfreesboro saw no shortage of drama. As combat escalated, the bloody Battle of Stones River and the Nashville Campaign brought more destruction. Yet at wars end, the resilient locals remained and rebuilt their town from the rubble. Authors and Civil War historians Michael Bradley and Shirley Farris Jones track the tumult of the proceedings to recount the compelling story of Murfreesboro during the Civil War.

The Book of Luke

A Soldier's Story

By: Pat Shirley

THE BOOK OF LUKE: A SOLDIERS STORY, first book in the Civil War trilogy OLD LONG TIME, follows my great-grandfather, Luke Munn, and his regiment, the 149th PA Volunteers, through The Battle of Gettysburg. A third person approach made it possible to add action elsewhere on the field and put the role of the 149th in context. Civil War novels usually have fictional heroes or center on officers or others who were or became prominent. In reading extensively on the period, I have found almost no others that focus on an ordinary soldier in the ranks who actually lived and fought in a specific battle. From census and military records and family stories, I have reconstructed Lukes personality and his life as a lumberman and soldier and a farmer trying to raise his family in a clearing in the woods. I have defined him not only as an individual but also in terms of his antecedents and descendants. I have alternated the battle chapters with a first-person narrator from each generation of Lukes family who tells about and relates to Luke. In starting with his grandmother, Molly Wolcott Munn, I have traced the family lineage back to 1630 when Henry Wolcott came to America. As the family has been in America for so long and as Mollys branch of it has been quite ordinary as compared to the Wolcott cousins who became governors of Connecticut, I feel that it is Everymans or every Americans story as well as Lukes. The book emphasizes ethnic influences on the family, and it develops the theme of freedom versus security as, not only an American, but, a basic human conflict, giving the story a meaning beyond family history. My last narrator, my first cousin twice removed and Lukes great, great, great-granddaughter, is of mixed black and white parentage. In coming to terms with her dual ancestry, she gives Lukes story and his devotion to the anti-slavery cause a more modern meaning and appeal.

So to Speak

11,000 Expressions That'll Knock Your Socks Off

By: Shirley Kobliner,Harold Kobliner

Engage with everyday expressions in a completely different (and fun!) way, with this entertaining and interactive book of common phrases that can turn a humdrum gathering into a raucous game night. We use expressions and idioms all the time. When you feel sick, you’re “under the weather.” When you feel great, you’re “on top of the world.” But whether you’re a “smart cookie” or a tough one, you—and almost everyone you know—have a veritable smorgasbord of expressions stored deep in your brain. So to Speak: 11,000 Expressions That’ll Knock Your Socks Off is the largest collection of its kind. Thoughtfully divided into sixty-seven categories—from Animals to Food & Cooking, from Love to Politics, this reference guide may have more in common with an activity book! Don’t look for definitions and etymologies, because the book is just the beginning. So to Speak is the launchpad for your lifelong journey to explore the universe of expressions. In fact, it’s designed to get readers off the page—and engaging with each other through word games and puzzles. So to Speak spurs discussion, debate, and play, while encouraging the art of listening and celebrating the joy of words. Authors Shirley and Harold Kobliner spent more than half a century nurturing and teaching children. So to Speak is a reflection of their deeply held belief that regardless of a person’s age, the most impactful learning happens when you’re having fun. Whether it’s grandparents teaching their favorite expressions to their grandkids, teens helping adults with the latest lingo or slang, or millennials indulging in their love of wordplay and games, this is the perfect book for any lover of language.
