The Romanov Royal Martyrs: What Silence Could Not Conceal
Based strictly on primary sources, the book The Romanov Royal Martyrs is a unique biography, offering previously unpublished texts in English from letters, testimonies, diaries, memoirs, and other sources. An impressive book, featuring more than 200 black & white photographs, and a 56-page full-colour photo insert of more than 80 high-quality images, appearing here in print for the first time.
Glorified in America
Utilizing both words and images this book animates the lives of a selection of holy men who labored on the North American continent in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries to give birth to the Orthodox Church in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Some of these have been formally glorified as saints and others may yet be. This book is much more than a simple historical account or retelling of their lives and particular service in North America: it is a spiritual manual, which strives to inspire and encourage its readers in their own struggle for the attainment of the holiness that adorns the lives of those recounted here.Chronologically the lives described herein span the years from 1854 to 2019 and focus on the time each man spent laboring in North America.

The text is interspersed by an extensive collection of both black and white photographs and pen and ink drawings that, together with a final section of rich color photography, contribute greatly to bringing the reality of their life and times to us.

When the son she prayed for turns out to be a hemophiliac, she forms a friendship with the one man capable ...

The Mountain of Silence
"Images of the land and the people of Cyprus and details of its tragic history enrich The Mountain of Silence. Like the writings of the great mystics, the book evokes the confluence of an inner and outer journey. The depth and richness of its spiritual message echo the thoughts and writings of Saint Francis of Assisi and other great saints of the Western Church as well."--BOOK JACKET.
