Book excerpt: Damascus, reputed to be the worldʹs oldest continually inhabited city, has enjoyed a history of immense grandeur, enormous political and mercantile power, and great cultural and artistic achievement. In addition to some of Islamʹs most magnificent architecture, such as the Umayyad Mosque, the city boasts a heritage of fairy-tale palaces and sumptuous private houses. Sadly, many of them are in urgent need of restoration. Brigid Keenan and Tim Beddow were given unprecedented access to the inner, "hidden" city, which has resulted in a book that is of immense importance to all concerned with the heritage of architecture in the Islamic world. The superb photographs include façades, courtyards, alleyways and fountains, and the breathtaking interiors that often lie behind the unassuming walls of the old town, with exquisite details in stone, wood, paint, marble, plaster, glass and mother-of-pearl. The whole, published with the generous support of Wafic Rida Said, forms a convincing and elegiac plea for the preservation of the heart of this historic ancient capital. -- Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treasures of many kinds still lie hidden below crumbling castles and ruined monasteries; in macabre tombs; in subterranean labyrinths and sinister caverns. Many sunken treasures lie beneath the seas, oceans and lakes of the world. Vast stores of pirate gold are still hidden on many a real life treasure island such as Oak Island at Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. Many treasures were looted, hidden and lost after the two World Wars - Hermann Goering, for example, one of most powerful leaders of Nazi Germany, is strongly suspected of hiding huge treasures at Veldenstein and Lake Zeller. This fascinating, expertly researched book brilliantly reveals all these unsolved mysteries. The final section covers useful ideas for treasure-seekers: the study of old maps and charts; coded messages; secret symbols; and intensive research into the lives and locations of those people through out history who probably in all certainty, had treasure to hide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of Proverbs is power packed with wisdom that will guide God’s people in daily living and is widely recognized as a source of sound, practical wisdom. It’s a rich fountain of profound but simple insight. In Volume 1 of Treasures from an Old Book, author Lorin Bradbury, Ph.D. addresses every verse of the first nine chapters of the book of Proverbs in a series of fifty-one unique lessons. He draws upon more than forty years of pastoral experience, making practical applications throughout each lesson to encourage the Christian needing a word of inspiration and to provide insight and application for a busy pastor teaching on these timeless truths. Ranging from establishing a sure foundation on the word of God, to fear of the Lord, to parental instruction, to warnings against enticement from the world, Bradbury shows that a study in Proverbs has the potential to improve how you relate to your children, spouse, neighbors, and coworkers, and most importantly, how you relate to God. Lorin Bradbury, Ph.D. is both a pastor and a psychologist and draws upon both disciplines in communicating scriptural truths. Lorin Bradbury is very intelligent and highly educated. Coupled with his intelligence is his solid, practical understanding and perception. In this book, he has succeeded in unpacking the treasures of wisdom found in “Proverbs” and displayed them so that each of us have access to godly wisdom in our daily lives. —Terry Pugh, Pastor Odessa, TX Wisdom has been defined as, “knowing what to do next.” The wisdom of God is found in the book of Proverbs. In these pages, Dr. Bradbury does an exceptional job of making the insight of Proverbs relevant for today. This is an incredible resource for any pastor or Bible teacher. You will never be any better than your resource. The material in this book is well researched and exceptional in the presentation. —Carlton Coon, Pastor & Author Springfield, MO

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job has a surprising amount to say about some of the newest scientific discoveries and controversies. Far from a book that is just about suffering, Job is filled with rich insight into both ancient and modern questions about the formation of the world the difference between animals and humans cosmology dinosaurs and the fossil record how to care for creation and more With careful consideration and exegesis, internationally known astrophysicist and Christian apologist Hugh Ross adds yet another compelling argument to the case for the veracity of the biblical commentary on the history of the universe, Earth, life, and humanity. Hidden Treasures in the Book of Job shows that the Bible is an accurate predictor of scientific discoveries and a trustworthy source of scientific information, and that both the book of Scripture and the book of nature are consistent both internally and externally.
