Mark Twain pokes a little good natured fun at the usual concept of heaven. The story follows Captain Elias Stormfield on his extremely long cosmic journey to heaven; his accidental misplacement; his short-lived interest in singing and playing the harp (generated by his preconceptions of heaven); and the obsession of souls with the "celebrities" of heaven, like Adam and Moses, who according to Twain become as distant to most people in heaven as living celebrities are on Earth. Twain uses this story to show his view that the common conception of heaven is ludicrous and points out the ...

Two boys. Two battles. One friendship that will change everything. They never planned to meet. They never expected to need each other. When James and Tony are placed in the same hospital room, their worlds collide in ways neither of them is prepared for. One is fighting a very real battle inside his body. The other is fighting something far less visible—but just as real. One believes deeply in God. The other isn’t sure God exists at all. Different backgrounds. Different beliefs. Different ways of coping. Two lives moving in opposite directions, forced into the same space.

Landroversandwine Overlanding JournalForeword: The name Landroversandwine came about in early 2007, I met a chap at a 4x4 show, and he was organising a charity drive around Europe in Landrovers (Landies).

A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is an 1889 novel by American humorist and writer Mark Twain. The work is a very early example of time travel in literature, anticipating by six years H. G. Wells' The Time Machine of 1895 (however, unlike Wells, Twain does not give any real explanation of his protagonist's traveling in time). Some early editions are entitled A Yankee at the Court of King Arthur. (Summary by Wikipedia)

The Bible warns of a future world ruler so convincing that even believers could be deceived. He will not present himself as a tyrant but as a savior—offering peace, unity, and solutions to humanity's deepest problems. He is the ultimate counterfeit: the false messiah Scripture calls the Antichrist. In this groundbreaking book, prophecy expert Mark Biltz exposes how the Antichrist will mirror Jesus to mislead the nations.

Samuel L. Clemens' (Mark Twain) journey to Europe and the Holy Land in 1866. Reportedly his best selling book.

These letters were arranged in two volumes by Albert Bigelow Paine, Samuel L. Clemens's literary executor, as a supplement to Mark Twain, A Biography, which Paine wrote. They are, for the most part, every letter written by Clemens known to exist at the time of their publication in 1917. They begin with a fragment of a letter from teenaged Sam Clemens to his sister, Pamela, and conclude with a letter to his attorney two weeks before his death. These letters give us some degree of insight into the evolution of Twain's style of speech and prose over the period of his lifetime; they are a small ...

"Jesus of Nazareth, a Biography, by John Mark," recognizes the author of the second Gospel as that "John, whose surname was Mark" (Acts 15:37), whom Barnabas chose as companion when he sailed for Cyprus on his second missionary journey. In making use of the new title, the plan of the Editor is to present "The Gospel: According to Mark" as it would be printed were it written in the twentieth rather than the first century. (Introduction from Forward, by D. Appleton & Co, Publishers, 1922)
