Mother Teresa: The Early Years

David Porter

Religion & Spirituality

SPCK Publishing

Drawing on archives only recently made available, this book both explores a previously unknown chapter in Willa Cather's life and offers the first full portrait of two artists whose lives are as fascinating as they are unbelievable. Earl Brewster and Achsah Barlow met as New York art students, married in 1910, and spent the remainder of their lives painting and writing in Europe and India. Deeply spiritual and often impecunious, they nonetheless managed to live stylishly and to attract the friendship of people like Cather, D.H. Lawrence, and the Nehru family. Although their friendship with Lawrence is well known, that with Cather has only now come to light, though it extended from the early 1900s until Cather's death in 1947, and had a profound impact on Cather and her writing. The book concludes with a representative sampling of the Brewster-Cather materials that this book explores for the first time. Illustrated with four color plates and five black-and-white illustrations.

The Man Who Was Q: the True Story of Charles Fraser-Smith, the 'Q' Wizard of World War II

Paternoster Press

Muggeridge, I964: "I certainly ﬁnd that the dogmas of. . . the Christian religion. . . are to me completely incredible. I can't possibly and could never believe in them." Muggeridge, 1968: "All I have cared about is the living presence of Christ." - What happened to change his attitude? What does Muggeridge, now turned 80, believe about God, Jesus Christ, the Bible, prayer, the church, sin, evil, suffering and dying? How has his late-found faith in God affected his life? David Porter, a free-lance writer living in Hampshire, England, bases the answers to these questions on conversations with Muggeridge and a study of his writings. What emerges is the portrait of a man whose quest for meaning has led him from the far end of agnosticism to a deep faith in Iesus Christ. This book, however, does not so much chronicle the journey as survey the terrain where he now resides. Wit for the curious, wisdom for those who would be wise, encouragement for fellow travelers in faith: this book contains them all.

The San Diego Padres Encyclopedia is the first comprehensive history of one of Major League Baseball's most fascinating franchises. From its roots as a National League expansion team in 1969 through the 2000 season, this new book covers the team's entire season-by-season history on the field, including its World Series appearances in 1984 and 1998. The team's greatest stars -- Tony Gwynn, Dave Winfield, Trevor Hoffman, Randy Jones, Nate Colbert, Steve Garvey, Ken Caminiti, and nearly a hundred others -- are fully chronicled, as are Padre celebrities such as Ray Kroc, Dick Williams, and Jerry Coleman. Much of the authors' biographical information was collected through personal interviews. The San Diego Padres Encyclopedia delineates the team's greatest milestones in its "This Date in Padre History" section, lists the franchise's all-time transactions, and chooses the Padres' all-time "dream team." The appendix of the book includes an all-time Padres roster and the most comprehensive statistical history of the Padres ever published.
