Through the Eyes of the Watchman
When God shows me dreams or visions, I know I am seeing them through my spiritual eyes. Things look like a very detailed movie. The images appear in a very high definition 2D. However brief, it is burned into my memory in full color and clarity. When I see spiritual beings, I see their forms in a different way than their surroundings, so I know I am still here. What happened to me when I was seventeen was an experience so different from anything that I had witnessed that it would change my life forever. Like Paul said, whether in my body or out of my body, I do not know. Only God knows. What I can tell you is that I saw, felt, and smelled everything. It was a place that can only be described as heaven.
Lincoln Castle Revealed
This book tells a new story of the royal castle of Lincoln in the north of England, how it was imposed on the late Anglo-Saxon town, and how it developed over the next 900 years in the hands of the English king or his aristocratic associates, leaving us a surviving monument of three great towers, each with its own biography. Led by FAS Heritage, archaeologists, architectural historians and a large cohort of the general public have combined to produce a revealing and accessible account of the story of Lincoln Castle and a reborn historical attraction for the city of Lincoln.
Excavations at the Minster Library, York 1997
Reports of the open area excavation at the York Minster Library conducted in 1997 and associated research are presented in this book. The excavation was complemented by geophysical survey and detailed documentary research in advance of an extension to the Minster Library, a converted medieval archbishop's chapel. The research unearthed archaeological strata up to two metres deep which have been attributed to eight distinct periods of activity. The periods of activity include evidence for Roman legionary barracks, an 11th-century boundary ditch, a 13th-century solar block of the archbishop's palace, 17th-century pleasure gardens, and, finally, the conversion of the archbishop's chapel into the Minster Library. With contributions by Craig Barclay, Paul Bidwell, Martin Carver, Jonathan Clark, Hilary Cool, Brenda Dickinson, Sandra Garside-Neville, Kate Giles, Kay Hartley, Deborah Jaques, Patrick Ottaway, Barbara Precious, Nicky Rogers, Jennie Stopford, Alan Vince and Felicity Ward.

Eilean Donan Castle
Now hard to believe, Eilean Donan Castle was once one of the largest castles in the west Highlands, known to have featured seven towers, the remains of which lie buried on the island. This book provides a refreshed view of the lost medieval guise of the castle, of its 13th-century origins and form, and of who was responsible for building it, allowing the castle to be positioned accurately in the complex dynamics of powerholding and display of the earls of Ross and associated militarized kindreds of the west Highlands during six centuries of change up to the castle’s destruction in 1719. A new history and the details of the below-ground archaeology allow us to see the lost medieval castle in our mind’s eye 500 years after it vanished. Focusing on the huge amount of archaeological material unearthed during the campaign shows the castle hosted master craftspeople including goldsmiths, shipwrights and hereditary swordsmiths. Exquisite personal items, decorative mail armor and weapons, musical instruments, gaming pieces, imported pottery and animal bones bring the castle and its inhabitants back to life.
Future Research Questions for Improving COPD Diagnosis and Care
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common respiratory diseases that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Exposure to toxic particles and gases, including cigarette smoke, is the main risk factor for COPD. Genetic predisposition also plays a major role, which besides toxic exposure type and duration, can determine different disease phenotypes. Patients with COPD often experience troublesome respiratory symptoms, frequent chest infections, and most importantly, are at risk of serious complications such as lung cancer and cardiorespiratory failure. Despite this, there is currently no cure for COPD, but available treatment options (pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and interventional) can help slow disease progression and improve symptoms and quality of life.

King John's Right Hand Lady
In a time when men fought and women stayed home, Nicholaa de la Haye held Lincoln Castle against all-comers. Not once, but three times, earning herself the ironic praise that she acted ‘manfully’. Nicholaa gained prominence in the First Baron’s War, the civil war that followed the sealing of Magna Carta in 1215. Although recently widowed, and in her 60s, in 1217 Nicholaa endured a siege that lasted over three months, resisting the English rebel barons and their French allies. The siege ended in the battle known as the Lincoln Fair, when 70-year-old William Marshal, the Greatest Knight in Christendom, spurred on by the chivalrous need to rescue a lady in distress, came to Nicholaa’s aid. Nicholaa de la Haye was a staunch supporter of King John, remaining loyal to the very end, even after most of his knights and barons had deserted him. A truly remarkable lady, Nicholaa was the first woman to be appointed sheriff in her own right. Her strength and tenacity saved England at one of the lowest points in its history. Nicholaa de la Haye is one woman in English history whose story needs to be told…

Sutton Hoo Research Committee Bulletins, 1983-1993
The early medieval ship burial at Sutton Hoo in Suffolk, whose discovery in 1938 yielded such rich treasures, posed many questions about the history of England in the shadowy period from the 5th to the 11th century. This one-volume edition of the annual bulletins of the recent archaeological campaign (1983-92), directed by Martin Carver, shows how the dig succeeded in establishing a context for those earlier finds, extending knowledge of the culture and society of the age.
