It was there he started writing songs with Freddie Bulsara following the formation of the band, Smile. Bulsara became Freddie Mercury, Smile became Queen and Chris remained true to the blues music that had inspired him from his early teens. The rest is history. One song which Chris worked ...

Religion in Archaic and Republican Rome and Italy
As Rome extended its influence throughout Italy, gradually incorporating its various peoples in a process of Romanization and conquest, its religion was extensively influenced by the cults of religious practices of its new subjects and citizens. It was a period of intense religious ferment and creativity. Roman religion, controlled and determined by religious and political functionaries who mediated between humans, had centred on a select pantheon of gods with Jupiter at its head. It was a religion in the process of becoming the servant of the state, however genuine its priests and votaries might be. Understanding the dynamics of religious change is fundamental to understanding the changing culture and politics of Rome during the last five centuries B.C. Religion in Archaic and Republic Rome and Italy tells that story.
Trade, Traders and the Ancient City
Trade, exchange and commerce touched the lives of everyone in antiquity, especially those who lived in urban areas. Trade, Traders and the Ancient City addresses the nature of exchange and commerce and the effects it had in cities throughout the ancient world, from the Bronze Age Near East to late Roman northern Italy. Trade, Traders and the Ancient City employs the most recent archaeological, papyrological, epigraphic and literary evidence to present an innovative and timely analysis of the importance and influence of trade in the ancient world.
Imperialism, Cultural Politics, and Polybius
Addressing central problems in the development of Roman imperialism in the 3rd and 2nd century BC, topics in this volume include the author Polybius, the characteristics of Roman power and imperial ambition, and the mechanisms used by Rome in creating and sustaining an empire in the East.
Slow Church
In today's fast-food world, Christianity can seem outdated or archaic. The temptation becomes to pick up the pace and play the game. But Chris Smith and John Pattison invites us to leave franchise faith behind and enter the kingdom of God, where people know each other well and love one another as Christ loves the church.
How the Body of Christ Talks
In today's highly charged social and political environment, we often don't know how to talk well with others--especially with people whose backgrounds differ from our own. C. Christopher Smith, coauthor of the critically acclaimed and influential Slow Church, addresses why conversation has become such a challenge in the 21st century and argues that it is perhaps the most-needed spiritual practice of our individualistic age. Smith likens practicing conversation to the working of the human body. Bodies are wondrous symphonies of diverse, intricate parts striving for our health, and our health suffers when these parts fail to converse effectively. Likewise, we must learn to converse effectively...
Citizen Smith
Citizen Smith was one of the great comic creations of the 1970's. Played by Robert Lindsay, and scripted by John Sullivan, who later wrote Only Fools and Horse, Wolfie Smith was the red terror of Tooting who captured the mood of the era. The leader of the Tooting Popular Front, he was fighting for the freedom of the people of South London. There would be Marxism, Trotskyism, Maoism ..and then Smith-ism he confidently declared. But in reality, he was a feckless loafer, always cadging money from people -- and getting into one scrape after another. Christopher Kenworthy's novelisation of the much-loved television series, originally published when the series was a hit on television, brilliantly captures the humour of the shows. It is a must-read for fans of classic British television comedy. "Had me laughing as much as the original TV shows." - Robert Foster, best-selling author of 'The Lunar Code'. Christopher Kenworthy was a journalist and author. His best-selling books include 'Ride The Dark Tide' and 'In The Dark Of The Moon.' Endeavour Press is the UK's leading independent publisher of digital books.
