Where the Saints Came from - on Pilgrimage in Wales and Beyond
Anne Hayward spends several months each year walking to sacred sites in Britain and beyond, now having covered many thousands of miles. Her third book recounting these pilgrimage walks looks in more detail at the history of 40+ sites she has visited in Wales or in places with a strong connection to it. In roughly chronological order, the book follows the history of Christianity in the country, discussing topics as varied as Roman roads, early medieval bell-founding, the development of Quaker graveyards, and the reinvention of an early saint in contemporary literature. It tells the remarkable story of religious faith in Wales, not only from the later Roman period and the Age of the Saints, but also in later times and into our own day, asking whether anywhere else has packed quite so much interest into so small a nation.

A Life Spared
A Life Spared By: John K. Lanphier A LIFE SPARED is Jackson Landry’s account of a journey he was destined to take. The story occurs in 1972 Mankato, Minnesota, where Jackson discovers the town that he was forced to leave has changed. Jackson dreams of a permanent return but knows he cannot have it. His visit is complicated by reconnecting with a former foster family, old friends, and a girl he once believed could never have feelings for him. He must reconcile his love of the town and its people, all so he can return to his home in Duluth, Minnesota, so he might live a happier life. When Jackson discovers terrible things about his past, his journey takes a dramatic turn, and he must face even more obstacles. A Life Spared illustrates a teenager’s resiliency, and his struggles to overcome all that could psychologically destroy him.
