Edward
Another excellent exploration of What It's All About, by Mr. Magical Realism. With footnotes.* So, what's it all about, this book that's about What It's All About? It's about Edward, and Infinity, and well, as noted in footnote 66, The term "growing up" seems to have the connotation of some sort of existence that has the sense of a final arrival point. God, how many times is that question asked in school: "What are you going to be when you grow up?" As though somehow what you are right then isn't valid. To answer such a question with a statement like, "I'm going to be what I am now: a human being," would bring from people very curious, if not frightened looks. Only when one's identity is lin...
The End of Glory
The career of the legendary British battlecruiser is vividly recounted from its commissioning to its tragic end in this naval history. The HMS Hood was the glory of the Royal Navy. In The End of Glory, historian Bruce Taylor combines in-depth research and thrilling narrative to tell its story. For twenty years Hood symbolized the Royal Navy during the twilight years of the British Empire. Yet in 1941, it was destroyed in seconds by the battleship Bismarck, a catastrophe that shattered the morale the British public. Through official documents as well as the personal accounts and reminiscences of more than 150 crewmen, this volume offers a vivid portrait of this naval icon. An insider’s view of a warship in peace and war, The End of Glory not only paints an intimate picture of everyday life but deals with controversial issues such as the Invergordon mutiny, escapades ashore and afloat, the Christmas mutiny of 1940 and the terrible conditions onboard in war. This coverage, based on so many original sources, makes for a truly compelling story that neither historian, enthusiast nor general reader will find easy to put down.
Off on a Dream and Other Magical Realities
For over forty years, Bruce Taylor has been writing stories that defy categorization. Since Bruce had a job working on an in-patient, locked psychiatric floor, he did not have to be concerned about writing to make a living. Indeed how he made his living gave him a wealth of fascinating psychological theory and concepts that literally fed his creativity. Writing for the sheer joy and exuberance of creative expression, his work explored, examined, exhumed the proverbial "human condition" in a broad array of styles until finally realizing what he was doing was not only writing in a style later known as Magic Realism but blending it with Science Fiction and discovering how well the two modes of ...
Christ's New Address
Christ’s New Address completes a six-volume series of sermons by Bruce Taylor based on the Common Lectionary (Revised). Together, they provide a theologically rich, sacramentally reflective, ecumenically compatible, and biblically centered collection of proclamations for Sundays and major feast days. An appendix to this volume offers a sermon preached as a departure from the lectionary following the tornado that devastated Norman, Oklahoma, when the author was serving as a pastor in Ponca City. His sermons bear strong evidence of his commitment to Christian unity and dedication to the church’s heritage as well as his conviction of its contemporary relevance through corporate witness and ...
The Battlecruiser HMS Hood
“A wonderfully illustrated biography” of one of history’s greatest warships whose sinking “signaled the end of the surety that Britannia ruled the waves” (War History Online). Unmatched for beauty, unequalled for size, for twenty years the HMS Hood was the glory ship of the Royal Navy, flying the flag across the world in the twilight years of the British Empire. Here, in words, photos and color illustrations, is the story of her life, her work and her people from keel-laying on the Clyde in 1916 to destruction at the hands of the Bismarck in 1941. Among the eyecatching strengths of the book is a unique gallery of photos, including stills from a recently discovered piece of color fo...
Truth Be Told

Preached in various congregational settings, these sermons are theologically rich, sacramentally sensitive, biblically centered, and ecumenically minded, articulating God’s love for all of creation and emphasizing the profound implications of discipleship as well as the urgency of compassionate and prophetic Christian witness in both word and deed. Truth Be Told, like its predecessors in Taylor’s first and second journe...
