The Watch Series: Book Two
Jerusalem is a scene of devastation. Terrorists have leveled most of the buildings, holy sites have been turned into dens of iniquity and people carry out depraved acts in the streets at all hours. The brothers are preparing their congregations for what cannot be easily achieved. They have to convince each listener that, as the Apostle Paul put it, “to die is gain,” and to face that event with such a sweet soul that fear becomes anticipation. These Christians are the last, hunted by gangs affiliated with the anti-Christ, the False Prophet and the Captain of terror. Christian soldiers have their work cut out for them in Book Two of the Watch Series.
Charles Curtis Brown Papers
The collection contains about 200 letters written while Charles C. Brown was with the 13th N.Y. Volunteers (1861-1863) and the 22nd N.Y. Cavalry (1864-1865). The letters represent a long and detailed record of Brown's thoughts, observations, and actions while engaged in the War for Union. Most of the letters were written to his sister Caroline (Mrs. William Van Kleek Lansing of Rochester) or to Sarah Pierrepont Brown of New York City, whom he married in June 1863. Among those frequently mentioned in the letters were William (Caroline's husband) and Charlie and Frances (Mr. and Mrs. Charles Pelletreau of Brooklyn). She was Sarah's half-sister. Also included are 63 supporting documents, including letters, vouchers, returns, and inventories, generated through Brown's role as an officer.

Souvenir
'The best evocation I've read of London in the '80s' Neil Tennant 'I loved Souvenir . . . it rescued some things for me - a certain aesthetic, a philosophical engagement with time and poignant beauty and lived history that I have found myself looking for, and not finding, elsewhere in recent years . . . the book gave me new hope' John Burnside 'A suspended act of retrieval, a partisan recall; a sustained, subtle summary of our recent past, and an epitaph for a future we never had' Philip Hoare 'Michael Bracewell proves himself to be nothing less than the poet laureate of late capitalism' Jonathan Coe A vivid eulogy for London of the late 1970s and early 80s - the last years prior to the rise of the digital city. An elliptical, wildly atmospheric remembrance of the sites and soundtrack, at once aggressively modern and strangely elegiac, that accompanied the twilight of one era and the dawn of another. Haunted bedsits, post-punk entrepreneurs in the Soho Brasserie, occultists in Fitzrovia, Docklands before Canary Wharf, frozen suburbs in the winter of 1980...
