A Dazzling Enigma
Stewart presents the only complete biography ever written on Morgan Edwards. In this exhaustively researched book, the author provides an innovative portrait of the most influential and perplexing man in American Baptist history.
The Mabinogion Vol. 2
In this second volume, as in the first, I have given Lady Charlotte Guest's translation exactly as she wrote it. It would have been easy to make it a more faithful reproduction of the Welsh by occasionally changing a word, or by making a phrase more simple in diction. But the reader would not have forgiven me for placing before him a translation that was not Lady Charlotte Guest's. I have again ventured, however, after a careful comparison of the translation with the original, to put in the form of footnotes a more accurate or more literal rendering of passages which Lady Charlotte Guest did not read aright, passages which she has omitted, and passages the real meaning of which she seems to me to have failed to grasp.
Distinctively Baptist Essays on Baptist History
This collection of essays by different authors is presented as a tribute to Walter B. "Buddy" Shurden, (distinctively Baptist) church historian, teacher, preacher, author, Baptist apologist extraordinaire. The rationale of this celebration of the lifework and influence of Walter Shurden is well stated, for example, in editor Marc Jolley's preface: "[D]uring some of the initial forays of our most-recent and ongoing Fundamentalist-Moderate controversy, there were days when I thought about changing denominations. Shurden's works were instrumental in my remaining a Baptist, not because I could see how Baptists had always had controversies and survived--although that is true--but because he helpe...
Lewis Edwards
A comprehensive study of the work of Lewis Edwards (1809-87), Wales's foremost scholar of the nineteenth century, and one who raised the standard of Nonconformist Wales erudition. A Calvinistic Methodist in his upbringing and through conviction, he was a pious man belonging to his era.
The Mabinogion Vol. 1
The Red Book of Hergest, from which The Mabinogion are taken, is a collection of tales and poems written during the fourteenth century. Some of the Mabinogion in it have been reconstructed in Norman and Crusading times, but they contain reminiscences of a more distant period, often but half understood by the later story-teller. Among these are "The Dream of Rhonabwy," "The Lady of the Fountain," and "Peredur the son of Evrawc"--the three which happen to come first in the Red Book. These are Christian, but with distant glimpses of Celtic heathenism. The adventures are all grouped around Arthur and his knights; and a kind of connection is given to the three tales by the presence of Owen and his mysterious ravens.
The Grocers
Grocers is an in-depth examination of the rise of the major supermarkets. The authors assert that retailers, managers and students can all learn from the trailblazing companies which have led the way in the area of competencies, competitive strategies, marketing, internationalization and customer service.
An Outlier's Tribe
In his quest to reflect upon and grapple with his experiences straddling the divergent environments of Appalachia and a New England private liberal arts college, Morgan Edwards provides a window into not only his life but also many of the polarizing political and social challenges of our time. Exploring themes of identity and belonging, upbringing and ideology, and armed with wit, empathy, and a critical eye, An Outlier's Tribe is a highly anticipated read in the vein of Hillbilly Elegy. Whether you have felt like an outsider in any way (politically, socially, culturally, etc.), are concerned about the increasing division in this country, or are simply interested in learning more about Appalachia and the nurture side of nature/nurture, An Outlier's Tribe is a refreshingly honest and thoughtful memoir that will provide the impetus for you to think a little more deeply about the people and places that shape us.
