Jesus’ call is both an invitation and a command. It is both an offer and a draft notice, a birth certificate and a death notice. He is summoning you to a different kind of life, lived in a different way. Jesus isn’t asking you to recite a prayer, walk an aisle, or raise your hand. He is calling you to come to him...and to keep coming. He is inviting you to live a led life.

And yet as the years pass, Stoner encounters a succession of disappointments.

Language defines us as a species, placing humans head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators. But it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries, allowing us to ponder why different languages emerged, why there isn't simply a single language, how languages change over time and whether that's good or bad, and how languages die out and become extinct.

Horus hat gegen den Imperator aufbegehrt und die ihm treuen Legionen von Abweichlern gesäubert, aber die grausige Tat bleibt nicht lange geheim. Im Namen des Imperators schicken Rogal Dorn und Malcador der Sigillite die größte Streitmacht aus Legionären und Primarchen, die die Galaxis je gesehen hat, um Horus' Rebellion den Todesstoß zu versetzen, noch bevor sie überhaupt beginnt. Die Loyalisten trachten nach Vergeltung, doch sie ahnen nicht, wie tief der Verrat wirklich reicht, und statt ein Massaker zu verüben, werden sie ihm zum Opfer fallen.

When John Muir was a student in the University of Wisconsin he was a frequent caller at the house of Dr. Ezra S. Carr. The kindness shown him there, and especially the sympathy which Mrs. Carr, as a botanist and a lover of nature, felt in the young man's interests and aims, led to the formation of a lasting friendship. He regarded Mrs. Carr, indeed, as his "spiritual mother," and his letters to her in later years are the outpourings of a sensitive spirit to one who he felt thoroughly understood and sympathized with him. These letters are therefore peculiarly revealing of their writer's ...

These are the letters of John Keats, as written to family, close friends and others during his brief, eventful years as an artist. (However, the editor chose to exclude love letters to Fanny Brawne, respecting their private nature.) The celebrated Keats letters were written between 1816–1820, and include those colorful entries penned during his 44-day tour with Charles Brown as they rambled through England, Ireland and Scotland. Also included are the famous, lengthy "journal letters," written to his brother George and sister-in-law in America. Not only a poetic genius, Keats shines in ...

When Helen Keller's autobiography was first published in 1903, Part 1 of this 3 part book, she was just a young woman studying at Radcliffe College. In it, she shares memories of her childhood, describes how Miss Sullivan rescued her from complete darkness, and reflects on her experiences as a college student. Part 2 is a collection of Helen's letters from age 8 through 1901, addressed to various teachers, friends and mentors. This is interspersed with introductory commentary by her editor John Albert Macy. It is fascinating to see how her awareness of the world expanded as she matured, how ...

IF IT FITS IN IT GETS IN. A Semi Fictional Memoir. At eight years old, John Kyle shares his first full beer with his mostly absent father at a backyard wedding in New Hampshire. By eighteen, he’s washing down handfuls of ecstasy with cocaine laced Four Lokos at house parties. By twenty four, he’s “Kyle Krave,” the most in demand bartender in a Las Vegas gay super club, serving celebrities by night and snorting lines in the bathroom between rounds. If it fits in, it gets in: alcohol, pills, heroin, powder, chaos.

The East is rich in Folklore, and the lorist is not troubled to discover material, but to select only that which it is best worth his while to preserve. The conditions under which the people live are most favourable to the preservation of the ancient legends, and the cultivation of the powers of narration fits the Oriental to present his stories in a more polished style than is usual in the Western countries. The reader of these tales will observe many points of similarity between them and the popular fictions of the West—similarity of thought and incident—and nothing, perhaps, speaks more...

Thanks to Thiele, to Hylten-Cavallius and Stephens, and to Asbjörnsen and Moe, Scandinavian Folklore is well to the front. Its treasures are many, and of much value. One may be almost sorry to find among them the originals of many of our English tales. Are we indebted to the folk of other nations for all our folk-tales? It would almost seem so. I have introduced into the present volume only one or two stories from the Prose Edda. Space would not allow me to give so much of the Edda as I could have wished. In selecting and translating the matter for this volume, I have endeavoured to make the ...

While running in Central Park, New York Times science writer Damon Ellis crashes—literally—into a story that just might resurrect his career…and change the course of human history. On the face of it, it seems absurd—a small biotech company in Boston called Calypso that claims to have cracked the secret of eternal youth. Surely a hoax. Or is it?

We Only Came to Dream is a memoir, not a novel, of the Counterculture Era (“hippie”). It is often one of high humor, silent introspection, and even danger. It was a time of social upheaval, a redefinition of the role of sex and race, and what it meant to be part of the mainstream…or not. Rediscovery was in the air, a marijuana-filled air, and often included quite a bit of travel.
