The History of the English People, 1000-1154

Henry of Huntingdon's narrative covers one of the most exciting and bloody periods in English history: the Norman Conquest and its aftermath. He tells of the decline of the Old English kingdom, the victory of the Normans at the Battle of Hastings, and the establishment of Norman rule. His accounts of the kings who reigned during his lifetime--William II, Henry I, and Stephen--contain unique descriptions of people and events. Henry tells how promiscuity, greed, treachery, and cruelty produced a series of disasters, rebellions, and wars. Interwoven with memorable and vivid battle-scenes are anecdotes of court life, the death and murder of nobles, and the first written record of Cnut and the waves and the death of Henry I from a surfeit of lampreys. Diana Greenway's translation of her definitive Latin text has been revised for this edition.

Selina, Countess of Huntingdon

Deeply admired by contemporaries such as King George III, Henry Venn and George Whitefield (who described her as 'all in a flame for Jesus'), Selina Hastings, Countess of Huntingdon (1707-91) left an indelible mark on the Evangelical Awakening of the Eighteenth Century. Closely involved for nearly forty years with the leaders of the burgeoning Methodist movement, she gave herself unstintingly to the cause of Christ. She contributed sacrificially to the construction of sixty-four chapels, the opening of many other places of worship, and the founding of Trevecca College in Wales. Drawing on unpublished letters, Faith Cook gives a deeper and truer-to-life portrait than previously available. Int...

This chronological reference compendium traces accusations, punishments, and the investigation of occultism from sorcery inquiries in 323 BCE Athens to the modern day. The text provides detailed information on actual hearings, torture, and death sentences for cases both famous and unknown. Primary sources--media, correspondence, adjudication--reveal the appalling injustices of government, church, and mobs toward the accused. Extensive appendices include a glossary, chronology of examples, and a list of legal proceedings, their locations, and outcomes.

Mason and Monkey's Big Adventure

On a very nice day, Mason and his best friend, Monkey, decide to play outside on the swing set together. Little do they know, as they swing higher and higher, that an incredible journey awaits them. They swing so high that they leave their seats and fly through the sky. They fly over the neighborhood and far across the world before landing in a mysterious jungle. There, hand in hand with Monkey, Mason finds dozens of eyes peering at him from the treetops. They're all monkeys, and they all want to play! This day of fun out in the backyard becomes a wild adventure in the jungle with a host of spirited new friends. But when it's time to go home, Mason and Monkey find themselves in quite the pickle. They don't have swings, so they can't fly back. And Mason doesn't even know which way to go! Join Mason and Monkey as they travel to distant lands, find joy in new companionship, and try to make it back home before dinnertime.
